Flower patch update:
Kinda worked out better than I thought it would. Pretty much hands off, only taken out 1 weed⌠did it all by itself.

Oh man, such garden jealousy/fomo right now. I really wish I could afford a garden atm! My aunties garden in WA has been commandeered by my manchild uncle so even if I go there for a few months thereâs not much I can do. Absolutely love those poppies. So striking!
You would know that famous little nature strip at the corner of Walpole and Malmsbury - owner replants seasonal flowers without fail - it reminds me a bit of that.

Ooh I do know that one!
I tried asking the council if I could plant shit on mine but they said no :( Something about visibility and lead (Pb) which I thought was silly.

Ask for forgiveness instead of permission? đ¤ I see people quietly adding plants around street trees all the time.
With the visibility thing, I think if you stick to stuff under 0.5m youâll be good. There are some councils that allow nature strip gardening and specify the heights. Maybe Port Phillip?
