#FieldOfDreams #CaNativePlants It's been awhile since I posted the mown wildflower meadow. As promised the #CAPoppies are returning. They are very hardy pernnials that tolerate mowing and drought. They will bloom until winter.

#FieldOfDreams this week we mowed. The lupine and poppies gone to seed. The poppies as perennials will come back this summer. The rest will be back with fall rains later this year. Birds enjoy hunting through the duff for seeds. #wildflowers #wildflowermeadows #CaNativePlants

California native Miner's Lettuce (Claytonia perfoliata) I found one a couple of years ago in my wikdflower meadow and this year I spotted 3. I hope they continue to spread. These are growing under a native Live oak (Quercus agrifolia) This is an edible plant. Can be grown from seed. #wildflowers #FieldOfDreams #gardening #CaNativePlants

What do I do with my life after retirement? I volunteer as a Master Gardener and provide public education on sustainable gardening. Mostly I work on #CaNativePlants; this is a fun collaboration on California Native Bulbs.

Last year, I converted my front garden to California Native Plants from a lawn. The plants were small and insignificant. The judging was palatable, but I knew what was coming. Patience and care. The pollinators the beneficial, and the wildlife are spectacular. Not to mention the color and the smell of the sages. #CaNativePlants #Waterwise #drought
