elbowcrooker<p>The low-maintenance wildflower meadow in my local park is looking good.<br>It actually features a mixture of wild flowers and ornamental annuals like cosmos and cornflower. The local authority plough it and harrow it every May, and that is just about all the intervention it gets.

Kimberley<p>My wild carrot brings all the bugs to the yard. <br>This is easily the mvp of my back yard right now. Every one of its flower heads has insects visiting throughout the day, mostly hoverflies and small sweat bees. And best of all it was 100% free, grown from seeds collected on local walks. </p><p><a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/UKnature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UKnature</span></a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/NatureGardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NatureGardening</span></a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/WildlifeGardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WildlifeGardening</span></a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/UKgardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UKgardening</span></a></p>

Sisyphus with a Hat<p>Look at this cool new wasp species for the garden! Extremely tiny (less than 3 mm?) and shiny.

elbowcrooker<p>The lavender path at our allotment is in full bloom at the moment and currently has at least two pollinators per square foot. There are six or more bee species plus numerous hoverflies and butterflies.
