Key insights about video FLOWER GARDEN TOUR - WISCONSIN GARDENING

🌿 Lark introduces her viewers to her Wisconsin Garden, which mainly consists of perennials with plans to add annuals later.

🌺 She has recently incorporated daylilies that were already potted into her garden.

🌱 The garden includes comfrey, woodland poppies (also known as Saladin Poppies), and Jacob's Ladder, which is noted to be a good spreader.

🌼 Despite the presence of weeds like dandelions, Lark utilizes parts of the weeds, such as dandelion greens, in her salads, indicating an approach that benefits from certain weeds.

🍃 Her approach to gardening is leaning towards permaculture due to time constraints, and she doesn't mind the presence of violets even though they can be invasive, because they're also used in salads.

👩‍🌾 The video tour is unedited, showcasing the natural and unaltered state of her garden.

🧚 She mentions creative uses for areas affected by fallen trees, such as transforming them into fairy gardens for children's enjoyment.
