    It’s extremely rewarding seeing my Land buzzing with Life, color, and texture. Encouraging Native Biodiversity has been a Life changer for me 😊🙏🕊️

    More often than not I am missing the Thursday Garden Talk these days and I am quite happy and thankful that you put this films up. This one especially was very inspiring to me. Thank You Annie and Noel!

    Thanks for the interview. This was excellent. Gardening is for sure good for us and healthy. In the scriptures, the first couple were put in a paradise garden and given the assignment to expand it. It was literally a God given assignment. Obviously things have taken a detour but the prophecy in Isa ch 65 is encouraging. In the meantime people like Rebecca give us a wonderful glimpse of what is possible.

    Somehow I have not heard her speak before... And I am a new Yorker. Thank you for having her on.
    The native only, everything else is deemed invasive... attitude is unfortunately out there. It can be hard not to become a bit paranoid and feel like you'll have to defend every plant-choice you make.
    While I won't give up Peony's, hakonechloa, Hellebores, and Calamagrostis Karl Forester (I know), I will happily also use more and more native carex varieties as the base layer, more native grasses for texture, and more native perennials for the color.
    And then I can keep everyone happy...yep. paranoia.
    Almost all gardens get Monarda and lobelia for the Hummingbirds. I'm finding hummingbirds make for happy clients. Every. Time.

    Hope that bird is a rescue and not a pet.
