Creeping Phlox is also known as Moss phlox, also called moss-pink or groundcover phlox, is native to the Eastern United States. It makes a great groundcover in sunny, well-draining soils.

Tiny Japanese medicinal herb 'Ajuga decumbens' has an ancient nickname,

'The lid of hell's boiling pot (地獄の釜の蓋)'.

As it's so beautiful, I'm not sure why...🥴

I have a dog that loves playing fetch. But it really beats down the grass in my yard. Any natural recommendations? I could also take her to a park to play fetch but the backyard is convenient. Could also just setup a dog run?

I was in the prowl for great groundcovers at the exhibits and found many terrific examples and met some very knowledgeable growers. Thanks for a wonderful event!

The snow❄doesn't show signs of stopping...🙄.

So, here's a stashed picture of 'Lamium amplexicaule',

very common weed🌿 in East Asia and Siberia.

They're a mint family (*inedible*) and flower from early spring, that I hope is coming soon.🌺🐝

Tree spacing in a is ¼-½ of avg tree diameter to allow light through to understorey.

Windbreak hedges (I use a mix & mostly ) are planted at about 0.3m-0.5m. If you can, plant double thickness.

Plant out in a at about 3-5 plants per m²

In , use the `Information Tools` `Distance Point to Point` to calculate a distance, and `Polygonal Area` to calculate an area.

4/8

Club moss (Lycopodium clavatum), creeping🐛 around my neighbour's abandoned yard.

I thought they're astonishingly tough for a moss, but (according to wiki,) they actually are a fern🌿.

I want to propagate them but cannot find where all the runners start out...
