Well-groomed lawns are a classic choice that many people love. They’re perfect for making colorful flower beds stand out, great for kids to play on, and offer a nice space to relax outside during the summer. However, some folks prefer a more laid-back approach to their lawns. They let wildflowers grow alongside the grass, which adds a natural touch. If you’re one of those people, you can take a break from mowing in late spring and enjoy the beautiful wildflowers that pop up. These flowers attract pollinating insects and other forms of biodiversity, making your lawn a haven for nature.

Support Your Plants: Stake Them to Keep Them Upright
Plants that come back year after year in garden borders sometimes grow really big and strong, which can make them weak and fall down easily, especially when it rains a lot or there are strong winds. To prevent this from happening, it’s a good idea to put garden stakes or supports in place early in the season. This is especially important for tall plants and plants that are a mix of different types and have big flowers. By giving them extra support, we can keep them from falling over and getting damaged.
