I was just connecting with @Katie Marie about the nuisance of having millions of these in my garden and inside my raised beds. However, I found out that "helicopter seeds" are edible and extremely healthy but, need to be eating while they are green and fresh. they can be eaten raw by humans. it also provides food for wildlife and squirrels, chipmunks and birds! Wow thats great news so i can collect some seeds and place inside my bird feeder etc.

It has been a rough few days, feeling very down and ready to hang up my gloves! however, I hope you are all doing well and enjoying your gardens.

Hello, gatherers this week I went ahead and separated some of my hosta plants to replant them around the garden see below for instructions on how to get started if you would like to do the same. I will share a video below to show you how resilient these plants are. Step-by-Step Division Guide - Time it Right: Early Spring, just as the bullet-shaped leaves emerge, is ideal because you can see where to cut without damaging full foliage. - Lift the Clump: Dig a circle 6–8 inches away from the plant to avoid cutting the roots, then pry the root ball out . - Clean and Inspect: Shake or wash away soil to view the crown (the knobby base). - Cut the Divisions: Use a sharp knife, garden saw, or spade to cut through the crown. For large, old plants, it is fine to cut them into several pieces. - Replant Immediately: Plant divisions at the same depth they were previously growing. - Water Well: Water the new, relocated plants thoroughly to help them establish.
