[ Scotch Broom (Cytisus scoparius) | Posted on June 30, 2014 ]

Invasive in central California.

[ Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) | Posted on June 24, 2014 ]

Dandelions, along with white clover, are important food sources for bees. In our quest for lawns resembling golf courses, we have removed so much of this source, but the bees and other pollinators NEED it. PLANT some, or at least leave it alone for them.

[ White Clover (Trifolium repens) | Posted on June 15, 2014 ]

White clover is essential food for our pollinators.
With pollinators in danger of disappearing, always leave some clover for them to feed on!
Plant more, if you can.

[ Gold Leaf Tansy (Tanacetum vulgare 'Isla Gold') | Posted on May 25, 2014 ]

Self sows and also spreads underground by rhizomes.

[ Cinquefoil (Potentilla hyparctica var. nana) | Posted on October 19, 2013 ]

I bought this plant to be one of several puddles of evergreen groundcover.
It overran and killed all the others.
I'll be digging it out and replacing a friend's LAWN with it in 2014.
