  1. This is my style of native gardening. I call it "Chaos gardening" although I think it's more proper to call it no-dig gardening.

    When we first moved in, 6 years ago in August, I started this garden with a fresh patch of clay soil. It was used as a tomato garden that they lined with plastic to kill the weeds. After years of getting cut down by deer and groundhogs and uninformed lawn care people, I've finally found a rhythm. I've been allowing the garden to fill in and I weed sparingly around the plants. I weed enough to let in sunlight but not enough to draw unwanted attention.

    Below are some examples of plants that had been eaten to hell last year (and some this year) but continue to grow in spite of it.

    Does anyone else garden like this?

  13. More spring preparation, cleaned up Bog Thing from winter dormancy. I generally try to let it do as it wants with some additions along the way, but trimmed out the dead sundew and pinguicula leaves (leaving the sundew roots) and relocated a venus flytrap seedling (there are a few growing in it). Next year I'll move out the pinguiculas before winter. I only rehydrated it today, not a full flush yet until it resettles.
