All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

See also our Environment community, which is focused on weather, climate, climate change, and stuff like that.

How is it the middle of July already?!?

The director of our town's library gave me gift cards for doing some educational talks - gift cards to another nursery... The gesture was very kind, and I'm glad to expand our plantings, but wow did I have some mixed feelings that I didn't expect.

And my wife ordered some teeny tiny succulents as favors for our baby shower next week, so now I'm wondering what the rules are for proplifting from plants one is giving as gifts. Please discuss, as well as telling us what's growing on with you all <3

Thank you! I'll give this a try. It makes sense, I haven't done any fertilizing since making this bed in the spring (compost/topsoil blend from a local supplier), and haven't been the most consistent on watering...
