A border lining our patio.
Echinacea purpurea, Gaura, Verbena hastata, Verbena bonariensis, ornamental grasses and wildflowers, such as poppies, mullein and several other self-sown individuals, before the draught bleached lawn give this border a meadow or prairie-like appearance.#ArtistsGarden #ImperfectGarden #garden #gardener #gardening #GardenPhotography #Artist #wolfkettler #Photography #GardenWiltshire #WiltshireGarden #Wiltshire #sustainable #summer #bloomscrolling #biodiversity #natural #NaturalGarden #WeedGardening #weeds #wildflowers #WildlifeFriendly #PlanetFriendly #PollinatorFriendly #ecology #climate #ClimateChange #conservation #sustainability #SelfSown #meadow #prairie

Do less and let the garden do the work for you!

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.

The blue flowering Salvia nemorosa 'Ostfriesland' are doing particularly well this year, their flowers have already lasted a long time. I love the combination of the Salvia with the fluffy Stipa tenuissima ‘Ponytail'.

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 have written this as a blog post: https://www.wolfkettler.com/blog/this-morning-in-the-garden#ArtistsGarden #ImperfectGarden #garden #gardener #gardening #GardenPhotography #Artist #wolfkettler #Photography #GardenWiltshire #WiltshireGarden #Wiltshire #sustainable #summer #bloomscrolling #biodiversity #natural #NaturalGarden #WeedGardening #weeds #wildflowers #WildlifeFriendly #PlanetFriendly #PollinatorFriendly #ecology #climate #ClimateChange #conservation #sustainability #SelfSown

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.#ArtistsGarden #ImperfectGarden #garden #gardener #gardening #GardenPhotography #Artist #wolfkettler #Photography #GardenWiltshire #WiltshireGarden #Wiltshire #sustainable #summer #bloomscrolling #biodiversity #natural #NaturalGarden #WeedGardening #weeds #wildflowers #WildlifeFriendly #PlanetFriendly #PollinatorFriendly #ecology #climate #ClimateChange #conservation #sustainability #SelfSown #EveningSun

I have been busy in the garden and I have revamped my website. Also decided that I would *try* to keep the ‘journal’, a.k.a. blog, a little more up-to-date.
Since I am clearly utterly incapable of sustaining a regular presence on social media, I would like to share the first new blog post with you: https://www.wolfkettler.com/blog/wild-unruly-and-beautiful#ArtistsGarden #ImperfectGarden #garden #gardening #GardenPhotography #Artist #wolfkettler #Photography #GardenWiltshire #WiltshireGarden #Wiltshire #summer #bloomscrolling #biodiversity #natural #NaturalGarden #WeedGardening #weeds #wildflowers #WildlifeFriendly #PlanetFriendly #PollinatorFriendly #ecology #climate #ClimateChange #conservation #sustainability #SelfSown

Even on a grey and dull December's day, the garden looks beautiful. The grasses and dogwoods glow with autumnal or, rather, wintry colour and the seedheads provide texture.
We leave the old growth until next spring. It is so important for the wildlife. Birds and small mammals still find food from the seeds and berries. Insects overwinter in leaves and seedheads. The old growth also provides shelter for other small creatures over the winter.
Besides, if we cut down everything now, the garden would be bare, unsightly and boring for the next several months.

The dwarf #daffodils are flowering, as usual a week or two ahead of the bigger ones.
They were earlier last year. This year, March. Perfect - in German speaking countries, #Austria, Germany, Switzerland, they are called #Märzenbecher, a reference to the month, in which they flower (März - March) and the shape of the flower (Becher = beaker).

My #Mediterranean #sourdough #bread. I am experimenting with bread scoring.
This bread is inspired by the #Greek #Horiatiko - #Χωριάτικο #ψωμί - and also southern #Italian breads, such as the #Pane #pugliese.
There seems to be a geographic theme here, southern #Adriatic and northern #Ionian - and it is a beautiful part of the world.#wolfkettler #Photography #FoodPhotography #BreadBaking #RusticBread #BreadCulture #MediterraneanBread #GreekBread #ItalianBread #psomi #HomemadeBread #HomeBaking #SourdoughBread #CrustyBread #organic #HealthyEating #HealthyFood #HealthyLifestyle #HealthyLiving #MediterraneanDiet #Sauerteig
