Do you ever wonder what you should be doing in your garden in a particular month?
As a freelance writer, I write a few monthly gardening articles and newsletters.
So, instead of writing an entirely new blog post, here is my latest “What To Do In The Garden” article for the Southwest that I wrote for Houzz.com
(I hope you don’t think I am lazy, but I would rather not write the same thing twice 😉
Southwest Gardener’s May Checklist
A beautiful and successful garden, attracts pollinators. My three favorite pollinators begin with the letter ‘B’ – bees, butterflies and birds.
First, the bees…
Icelandic Poppy
Begonia
Rabbitbrush
Now, butterflies…
Swallowtail and Dianthus
Pipevine Swallowtail
White Checkered Butterfly
And, my favorite – birds…
Black-Chinned Hummingbird feeding from Ocotillo flower.
