Yes. I have a patch where last year ‘throw seeds and water’ worked amazingly. I had this super colourful patch with 2 types of cosmos, helichrysum and zinnia. It was full of bees. Amazing.
This year I did the same and grew one cosmos.
So next year I’m digging it up, adding some compost to the soil and planting a bunch of perennials because it’s currently just clay with some dandelions in.

I may or may not have just ordered a bunch of spring bulbs today…🤣🤔

Yep.. Every year my brain takes a mental tally of what worked and what didn’t, so I can plan accordingly.
Last year bugs. This year so much fungus ugh Keeping coleus. It’s so easy and no fuss. Growing that every year. I don’t have your artistic talent though.

Next year? I’m planning for fall when I can finally get something going because very few vegetables grow in 90+F summers here.

Yes. The cicadas took about a month off this year’s gardening season.
