Loving the floral variation showing up in these Prairie coneflower (Ratibida columnifera) sourced from a single population in MN. Who needs new mutations when you have standing variation like this! #wildflowers #nativeplants #tinyhausgardens https://www.instagram.com/p/CDoZFHlHFHC/?igshid=2yoe1efzl6zs

We spend a lot of time cultivating native plants in the yard for the benefit of bees (and other insects) , but man, do the pollinators ever love dill! 🤷‍♂️ #pollinators #tinyhausgardens https://www.instagram.com/p/CDHFH9gHcHe/?igshid=89zx13i0ywrw

Canada Wild Rye -- such elegance, such grace! One of our lovely native grasses that establishes early and readily. #nativeplants #tinyhausgardens https://www.instagram.com/p/CDEIdBYHAWz/?igshid=mfdqie6asljw
