Love this! Here in NC I'm waiting I think one more week to bring all my plants back onto our back screened in porch, and it's going to be so nice. Aside from the pollen bombing that i have to clean up after almost daily lol then after that it'll be nice. Any tips on natural mosquito repellant? I'm trying this year to plant more fragrant things they hate like rosemary, lavender and lemon grass but sometimes feels like a futile effort and really takes away from the enjoyment of our yard! I considered getting one of those companies to do whatever they do w/ whatever chemicals but it's so bad for the bees I hear? And we need the bees for our garden! So torn.
“Shell decor on a city balcony that is 1000 miles from the coast doesn’t quite fit”
As a counterpoint, I know some Germans in Heidelberg who put a Strandkorb / beach bench on their balcony and they were extremely happy with that decision :D
