🦋Helpful Tips:

• Sun’s out, shrubs out! Make sure your plants are thriving by choosing the right sun-to-shade combo.
• Mulch is your friend—it keeps roots cool and weeds on the run.
• Bees and butterflies are the real MVPs—plant natives and nectar-rich blooms to invite them in.
• Water wisely. Early morning sips are best—just like coffee!

Let’s turn this neighborhood into a blooming marvel. Because when it comes to curb appeal, you grow! 🌸 Happy Gardening!
