In no-dig gardening, never leave soil bare! Keep it covered with crops or green manures like crimson clover in spring or winter field beans in autumn. After growth, chop & drop as mulch. This feeds soil life, suppresses weeds & protects structure. 🌱 #NoDig #GreenManure #SoilHealth

Lacy #phacelia aka #purple #tansy is native to NW Mexico & SW USA - it's in the borage family. I've been using them as part of #pollinators #garden & as a natural aphids #PestControl for food plants. This pretty flowering #plant attracts hoverflies & those insects love eating aphids. When it's done flowering - you can cut it down & use cuttings as #GreenManure.
