A pretty mixed garden bed with dahlias, catmint & assorted ornamental tall grasses & buckwheat.
@PhoenixSerenity. This garden space is looking good. Mint has a lot of blossoms for the critters.
@Pollinators They have 3 different pollinator gardens in their backyard too. 2 are all mixed native plants. The third is mixed native & cultivated plants.
@PhoenixSerenity. Your growing zone and rain zone are great for gardening.
@Pollinators Yes, Victoria is known as, City of Gardens. We struggled with rain this Summer - we still need more rain. Climate change acceleration has affected gardening here. I'm trying to adapt, best as possible with frugality because I'm working poor.
@PhoenixSerenity. I’m off reading about Victoria.
@Pollinators I'm in the South Saanich area of the city. It has more parks & greenspaces than other municipalities - currently. Saanich area is known for its parks & farms.
@PhoenixSerenity. Excellent. You have a great green neighborhood.
@Pollinators Trying to keep it that way. Our current council does too much greenwashing though. There's massive big developments happening & tons of trees were cut down in past 2 years for that.
