Jo<p>Yes its a rampaging weed. Yes I have spent hours digging it out if the polytunnel. But I think it was the first flower I really noticed as a child, and I still think its really beautiful. <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/weeds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>weeds</span></a></p>

About time I posted something new: A perfect illusion of summer bliss.
The border in the foreground is problematic: What I plant does not do particularly well and what I think should not be there is thriving. Just as well that I have learned not to argue with nature: It is beautiful, it’s natural and I could not have planned (and planted) it better.

Someone needs to tell the writer that docks are good for fertilising plants through chop-and-drop, composting or weed tea. Those big ol' tap roots get to nutrients other plants can't reach deep in the ground and bring it to the surface into their leaves (the same as why comfrey is useful).

But glad to see couch grass (my nemisis) getting the hate it deserves #allotment #gardening #weeds

The Guardian · Not all weeds are bad news – but these interlopers have no place in my garden’s veg patchBy Claire Ratinon

The #horse pasture is a testament to #mowing #weeds (specifically hairy aster) instead of spraying. I've mowed & spread muck #muckspreading for 3 years in here & it has completely turned over! It's now a mix of grasses & clovers. I just cannot believe it! 🤯 I mean, I know it works, but it's stunning when you walk it & remember how bad it was in the beginning. (It was a monoculture of hairy aster.) It's healthy now! 😁 Also very carefully managing it with #PulseGrazing. #CatsOfMastodon

Biodiversity under the wheels near Repton

"ANGELA Wallace is one of many people upset about the number of koalas being killed on local roads....Little has been done to mitigate these deaths, with another koala recently killed near Repton. “No wonder our iconic koala (dunggirr) is endangered with our roads as ‘killing zones’, deforestation [causing a] loss of habitat, and them trying to survive extreme weather events such as fires and floods.”

"She pointed out that where the koala died, the wildlife fence nearby was thickly overgrown with lantana and a nearby underpass was almost impenetrable due to a mass of lantana."

If an injured, sick or orphaned native animal is found, WIRES can be contacted on 1300 094 737.
