If the fate of the world depended on my convincing neighbors to quell creeping bellflower I guess I'd have to say, "So long, World!"

Thank Dog it's not giant hogweed.

The City of Minneapolis in its weekly newsletter is pleading with homeowners to quell creeping bellflower.

'If you see the “pretty” purple flowers, remove them from the plant before they go to seed. Please also tell your neighbors. If they have it and let it go to seed, it's likely you'll have it next year.

'If you have City garbage pickup, it is safe to put bellflower plants out with yard waste for pickup. The compost piles at the facility that composts the City's yard waste get hot enough for long enough to neutralize the plant parts and seeds.'

In the midst of a Hydrangea macrophylla ‘Mariesii Lilacina’ grows a self-sown Achillea, maybe Yarrow, hard to know and very difficult to spot. Their flowers are absolutely identical in colour. Even their flower heads are similar in shape. Is this a case of perfect colour harmony or plant intelligence using colour as camouflage?

I planted this border in the garden predominantly with ornamental grasses, interplanted with tall perennials - and, of course, wildflowers, a.k.a. weeds. Couldn’t begin to list all the individuals, who live in there.

Previously, a small part of the garden by the side of the house was only grass, a tree, a few shrubs and hedging to the side and back - and it was a bit unloved.
Since the transformation, the distinction between inside and outdoors has been blurred. Sitting in the living room you can now not be quite certain where you are. The garden seems to be intent on coming into the house.

I love the garden at any time of the day. Without a doubt, though, the light is best early mornings and, as in this photograph, late afternoons.
As everywhere in the garden, the borders contain deliberately placed plants but welcome with open arms the many self-sown wildflowers.

I spent a little time *weeding* in the backyard #FoodForest. And by weeding, pretty much pulling out the few patches of #OrientalBittersweet that were still around. With both #WildStrawberries and #Raspberries growing in that spot, there will be plenty of berries to go around -- just not invasive ones! And yeah, Oriental Bittersweet is something one has to pull up by the roots, and then burn them. I've pretty much eradicated it from two spots in my backyard, but I'll have to keep on top of looking out for it until other plants take over!

What is the best least toxic way to get rid of Oriental Bittersweet without using #Roundup

Excerpt: "The root stock is the bigger problem. Generally, chemical intervention is the preferred method at that point, but I understand and respect your efforts to keep away from pesticides. What you’re then looking at is conscientious removal of new shoots as they emerge from the root stock; it will take several seasons, but with diligence you can eventually starve out the underground portions of the plant. Take special care to inspect the area around the roots/new shoots, as the plant can spread underground and you want to make sure it isn’t sneaking a shoot up a nearby tree without you noticing."
