Rita, I don't believe you for a minute! I say embrace your weeds! Last spring, a guest in my garden asked how I managed to weed everything. I told her that I didn't and that I had lots of weeds and then started pointing them out. She said 'oh, but you have pretty weeds.' I think that's one of my favorite compliments ever!

Here's a fledgling blue jay eating berries off a weed while hanging out under the sprinkler. I purposefully let that weed grow because I know the birds like the berries.
