@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. Are you in the shadow of a mountain? I didn’t imagine us with more annual precipitation.

@Pollinators Our property was actually built over old wetlands & farming properties. In several areas of Saanich, just not in our specific area, sinkholes have occurred.
