  • Visit some Garden Centres near you- often they’ll have seed mixes of local perennial flowers available for purchase, you just need to spread the seeds in the spring or autumn.

    Also, “weeds” aren’t always weeds, they’re just plants that some people decided get in the way of monocultures. If it’s flowering, it’s feeding insects, so leave it be.

    The fireflies are awesome in my area this summer and my humble yard is part of that. It’s honestly so satisfying watching plants come back year after year, bigger and bigger




  • Definitely Jack Vance first.

    After that it’s all over the place from day to day. Really enjoying Adrian Tchaikovsky lately, “The Final Architecture” series is just perfect.

    Benedict Jacka has scratched my itch for urban fantasy.

    I keep being impressed by Ian McDonald, his Luna series was such a tidy read.

    Other than that, Samuel Delaney, LeGuin, Harry Harrison, Heinlein, and several others. I don’t have a list, just authors :)
