Timothy Shortell<p>Sowed five pounds of clover and some lupine and zinnia in a new flower bed I dug. Part of a long term plan to replace the lawn. I get a lot more pollinators now than I did seven years ago, when it was five acres of lawn. <a href="https://sciences.social/tags/Gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gardening</span></a> <a href="https://sciences.social/tags/Zone5" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Zone5</span></a> <a href="https://sciences.social/tags/Clover" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Clover</span></a> <a href="https://sciences.social/tags/Lupine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lupine</span></a> <a href="https://sciences.social/tags/Zinnia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Zinnia</span></a> <a href="https://sciences.social/tags/Pollinators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pollinators</span></a></p>

Colin Purrington<p>Earlier this week I noticed that one of the Georgia mason bees (Osmia georgica) at the front-yard insect hotel had capped off her nest. They use masticated leaves and nectar. Not sure what the white things are. She's since moved on to another paper straw.

Maria Petersen<p>The joys of having a wild garden. I've lived here for more than 12 years, and in that time, the garden went from trimmed hedges, mowed down grass, and no flowers to an absolute abundance of life.<br>By my last count, I have observed over 800 species. I do not count most of the plants as they wouldn't be here if I hadn't planted or sown them.<br>The biggest breakthrough was when I put in a small pond.<br>Every year, I make small tweaks and improvements, such as adding rotting wood, piles of twigs and branches, stone dikes, clay cobs, and nesting boxes. This year, I think I'll try to clear a small area and mix in some sand to attract more ground-nesting bees.</p><p>Is there an English equivalent to the Danish VildMedVilje (WildOnPurpose)?</p><p><a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=VildMedVilje" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VildMedVilje</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=WildOnPurpose" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WildOnPurpose</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=Bloomscrolling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bloomscrolling</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=Biodiversity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Biodiversity</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=Pollinators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pollinators</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=PollinatorFriendly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PollinatorFriendly</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=Garden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Garden</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=NativePlants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NativePlants</span></a></p>
