The pink evening primrose has very deep roots. Would be out standing on a hillside to help hold it up.
Horrible AI I like real human videos
I have planted a few of these and am even planting a few different colors of some this year.
What I would really like to plant is Hollyhock, but I need to check to see how it will grow in conjunction with our Black Walnut tree. I have spent the past twenty-five years learning what I can and can’t plant or if there is a way I can manage to plant while dealing with the Juglone .
Is there any possibility of you doing a video about the “joys” of dealing with this kind of situation and what type of approaches would be best to take?

Great video! 🌿 Self-seeding perennials are such a smart choice for building a garden that keeps coming back with less work each year. I love the mix of pollinator-friendly flowers like Bee Balm, Black-Eyed Susan, Columbine, and Purple Coneflower—perfect for adding color, life, and a more natural feel to the garden. 🌼🐝
this will really help a lot of people her.

I am so tired of AI. A "sow" is a female pig. "Sow" is planting seeds. They look the same, sound different.
