    Loads more here too this year, way more than the last couple of springs. Noticed them clustering around the rose buds already which is perfect timing honestly, the aphids were just starting to show up. The warm February probably helped them come through winter in better shape than usual.

    What are we doing in the garden 2026

    Continued removing moss from the paths. Then we mowed the "lawn" for the first time. This year not many daisy plants. Had to get the hose out for the pots and the tunnel. Again the first time.

    We had not seen a goldfinch in years, so we put out a Niger seed feeder. Now, we have a flock of them and have gone through 20 pounds of Niger seed, and it costs about $2.50 per pound, still it is worth it to have these colorful little critters flitting about. This is a young non-breeding male.

    Field woodruff in my lawn

    Is it not killed by normal weed and feed products? But I would agree in making the lawn less susceptible by improving the conditions for the grass over the weeds.
