Flower patch looking fantastic! 🙌🏻 I’ve been trying many things to keep critters out of our gardens. So far I tried pepper spray, nope. Store bought sprays, nope. Irish spring soap, nope. Coyote urine, nope. Actual chili pepper and paprika, sorta works but washes away quickly. I’ve heard eggshells are good for plants and help keep some critters away (you’d have tons of those!) and possibly cinnamon but haven’t tried that yet and feel like that’s expensive and just like the chili pepper you’d have to keep applying. So far the only thing that keeps critters away for us is motion activated sprinklers. And it’s actually pretty funny to watch 😂 we set up game cams to see how it worked.
I’m also in need of some gardening time to take my mind off things. We just lost our kitty of almost 18 years yesterday and I’m just devastated. 💔 She was my shadow and the bestest girl. I’m also walking our baby daughter as much as possible when the weather allows. Endorphins and all that. I feel like she held on long enough to hand us off, like ok kid I’m tired and I gotta go now, I showed you the ropes now it’s your turn to take care of them. 😢
Sarah, the flower garden is so full! I look forward to seeing it in a week or two! Years ago, when my girls were young, pulling weeds was “my time”. The girls avoided me like the plague! So I enjoyed & still do enjoy pulling those pesky weeds.

I’m sorry for the loss of your kitty. I know how it hurts. 😔
Thank you so much. 😢❤️
The flowers are beautiful!
