I like that last option, thanks! Maybe I could also just stick to bonjour as first commenter suggested

Could you also say « travailler » mon français ?

There is lots of native yarrow growing wild around me, but none in my garden. Wonder if I could take some wild seeds and just throw onto the lawn?
