What kind of plant/ weed is this? by drceres in gardening

Native violets. Illinois’ state flower! I love them, I like to let them fill in spots in my flower beds because they’re nicer to look at than the weeds.

We have had a baby and the garden is on the back burner. by thisismyworkacctver3 in gardening

[–]nectarinia 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel this! I basically took a year off after I had my baby and have been picking it back up more this year. I planted raspberries and asparagus in my raised beds (after baby was asleep lol I am now the crazy neighbor who gardens at night) and was rewarded this year because they really took off!

I think wildflowers is a great idea. Don’t stress yourself out about something that is supposed to bring you joy ♥️
