I thought a garden chat and photo thread would be a good idea.
This way, we have a space to share current pictures and discuss dandelions and other plants.

What exactly is dirty about that? It sounds terrible just for a few leaves in the garden area, which also provide a habitat for some garden helpers.
For many, it is considered dirty. It also doesn’t look good when crushed leaves are scattered everywhere—not just a few leaves—blowing around well into the summer.

I know, and that’s a bit of a shame. As the crime scene cleaner says: dirt is simply matter in the wrong place. Fallen leaves belong in the garden, even though sometimes they are cleared away in certain areas to keep, for example, a lawn looking neat.

I raided my husband’s wallet and went to the local garden center. 😀
This is what I came back with. They are now waiting on the porch, hoping for a thunderstorm, and will be planted during the week. 🙂
2 wild grapevines, 3 butterfly bushes, 2 blueberry plants, 1 currant bush, and 5 lavenders.
The total cost was €70. Do you think that was reasonable? Normal, cheap, or expensive?

Oh, it was you? I was starting to wonder! :p

Just to avoid any rumors: My wife raided me today too...

I have to try that too. I'll ask my husband later. Curious if it will still be missing with @Tolentino.

70 euros for everything is quite cheap.

5 lavender plants.
Lavender is also very popular with us. It smells wonderful 🙂

After a few visits to a garden center, I believe I can say the price is reasonable.
