My neighbour has raised concerns about me because I’ve stopped trimming parts of my lawn to foster the bees. Apparently it’s weird and concerning to let some areas grow wild. I didn’t rake the back last year, and started to see fireflies again.
I was going to buy a wildflower mix, but that will be too unkempt.
One of my first jobs had me working retail in the “lawn and garden” department. Every year we would have people buy those wildflower mixes and then 6 weeks later, you would see the same people buying weed killer. I had many people tell me that they couldn’t understand why their lawn was so overrun with weeds the last few years, and of course they were always the ones doing the wild flower mix.
