Summer has overtaken its bounds. Walkways all but disappear beneath weighty branches of echinacea, while moonflower vines reach out to connect to whatever they can climb. The trellis I provided has long since become inadequate.

I no longer look at overgrowth as something to be managed. I prefer to see it as food, protection, and a gathering place for those who visit or call my garden home.
Isn’t that what we all long for?
