#gardengoals
You know how we are all just leftover particles from dead stars?
The very beginning of human knowledge is screwing up, or at the very least, understanding how things work.
Failure= Understanding Success
We can also acknowledge beautiful things unfolding from devastating realties. Waxing philosophical now...
That being said there may be mistakes you'd like to avoid altogether:
Mistake #1: All planning and no action.
Don't plan stuff out and then not do it. Don't do that to yourself, it's not nice.
The front of your house should be the first place you look to make a statement about natural spaces and it's likely the one you frequent the most. Just remember:
How to site prep: https://prairielegacyinc.com/planning-your-prairie/
Think of garden shapes: https://www.provenwinners.com/learn/basic-design-principles-and-styles-garden-beds
Mistake #4: Forgetting about ground covers.
Sedges, baby.
Popular ground covers for sun: heath aster, wild strawberry, Missouri evening primrose, silky aster, purple poppy mallow, pussytoes, purple prairie clover and more.
Popular ground covers for shade include wild ginger, violets, wild geranium, zig zag goldenrod, mayapple, shade asters, Virginia waterleaf, and others.
Mistake #5: Not taking sun requirements into account or planting something that likes it wet in dry soil or vice versa.
Look up plant stats, but experimental skepticism is ok.
Mistake #6: Not thinking of adding in paths to weed and access the garden.
Paths can be stepping stones, turf grass, mulch, crushed limestone. The options are there. Just make it easy for yourself to get around. Make paths two to three feet wide.
Mistake #7 Planting a ton of tall stuff by a sidewalk or path, or letting something go to seed and grow there so your paths disappear.
Need a recipe for some potting soil for all the stuff you have to pot up because you psychotically can't bear to waste it??? Yeah???

Mistake #8 Planting several aggressive plants, when it’s more practical to control one or two.
Aggressive things to keep an eye on:
Mistake #9 Not planting most things in drifts.
Drift philosophy: https://www.monarchgard.com/thedeepmiddle/fundamentals-of-natural-garden-design
Mistake #10 Trying to do too much all at the same time.
Dream big but start small. Maintain what you finish. Impress your neighbors. Remember we want to win them over!
Be patient
Gardens take time to be at their best. Some plants need years to even get started. Baptisia, leadplant, and shrubby St. John's wort are all plants that need years to really get going.
Let yourself practice and play. Have fun and live a little!
Thank you for listening!
