We're going to see if this works.
Ah HA! It did work! This is a walk through of the garden last year, right before sunset so you get the lighting and the sounds of the birds and the insects. I replay this over and over when I'm stressed and need something peaceful to think about.

Rarely do I pick up a brand new book at a bookstore, but this one really piqued my interest so I had to get it.
Plant This, Not That: Over 200 Native Plant Swaps for a More Sustainable, Pollinator-Friendly Garden, by Elise Howard
I love that it offers several replacements for every invasive, and also shows comparison photos of all the native alternatives AND their native ranges AND benefits.
(If anybody is looking to replace something lemme know and I'll see if it's in the book and scan the pages for you)
Merrybells, Uvularia grandiflora, in the garden. They’re doing well so far despite how dry it is.
So my yard has these lovely Common Evening Primroses (Oenothera biennis) that popped up one year and have been just self propogating ever since. I let them grow because they're a native species where I am, they're pretty, and they attract a lot of bees, moths, and birds.
This year I've had two of them get fucking massive. These fuckers are like 10 feet tall! Normally they stop at like 5 feet! I'm going to need to measure them once it's time to cut the stalks down

Huge millipede, ladybug missing her spots, and my common milkweed that returns every year because I planted one like three years ago a couple feet away. They establish root systems or something and spread that way? This is the first year it's bloomed :)
Today I learned native lupine is nitrogen fixing!? I had no idea but I recognized those root nodules & did some research - theyre a good choice for so many disturbed areas
A few of the native species in our backyard, and the stream bank I'm fighting knotweed, buckthorn, and honeysuckle on. Everything is a lil fuzzy because it's cottonwood season. Spent maybe four hours out there today pulling buckthorn and digging up multiflora rose roots! Exhausting work, but it's worth it to make room for these, very motivational to simply think "well I have to protect the irises."
Pictured in order: blue flag iris; the streambank planted with already-occurring black elderberry, more blue flag iris, marsh marigold, sweetgrass, bullrush, fireweed, and Culver's root; cranesbill geranium; sensitive fern
Things planted today:
Tamarack (American larch, Larix larcina)
Ninebark (Physocarpus opulifolius)
Buttonbush (Cephalanthus occidentalis)
Golden Alexander (Zizia aurea)
Shrubby St. John's Wort (Hypericum prolificum)
At some point in the future I'll have to list out all the native species we have now!
