Welcome to September aka end-of-summer garden anarchy.
The weeds have won, the tomatoes are doing their own thing, and the garden looks completely unhinged. But between the bumblebees bumbling into nasturtiums and the monarch and swallowtail butterflies taking over the zinnias, no one seems to care about curb appeal.
Messy gardens feed the pollinators best, right? That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
