Karen @kxw232.bsky.social · 26/08/2026@gregdoucette.bsky.social man, you jinxed me. After your AMS debacle, I reminded them to book me straight out of the US. They booked me thru Philly! First flight 2.5 hour delay. Will probably be sleeping in PHL. 001

Karen @kxw232.bsky.social · 09/05/2026Thought all my jack-in-the-pulpit transplants had been lost. This spring, I have 2 patches plus in a pot. Guess I can stop going to rescues for a couple of years.🌱 000

Karen @kxw232.bsky.social · 05/04/2026Happy to see this but why do they always move into the path? Is it because the bed is covered with creeping Charlie and violets? 100

Karen @kxw232.bsky.social · 12/07/2025Seen while on à work crew with Mountain to Sea Trails (North Carolina, US). Is it about to bloom, going to seed or about to become sentient? 🌱 010

Karen @kxw232.bsky.social · 21/02/2025Unusual snow (recently) for the piedmont. Hopefully natives remember how to survive. And all invasive weeds succumb😂🌱 030
Karen @kxw232.bsky.social · 29/12/2024I started the conversion by removing the hydrangea that I later learned was over 120 year old. 🫠 So then I only moved the hostas to another spot under the dogwood tree. 🌱 100
Karen @kxw232.bsky.social · 29/12/2024Converting my front yard to native plants was supposed to wait for several months while I mapped out where the sun/shade was, water flow and such. But there was a close out sale at a local nursery, I brought some plants from me former house, I wandered through a big box store that had pond liner...🌱 020
Karen @kxw232.bsky.social · 17/12/2024I moved into my current house in 2019. This is the third garden I've converted to mostly native plants. When I moved in, it was traditional - hostas, hydrangea, lawn that was more weed than grass but green. other shrubs I don't know and an old dogwood 🌱 120
Karen @kxw232.bsky.social · 30/11/2024Goji berries galore here in the piedmont, north Carolina. Now if only I liked them! 🌱 030
