Rounding the Year: Forget-Me-Nots in the Grass
Here’s a close-up photo of forget-me-nots flowering in my garden. In fact they are all over my lawn, along with primroses, bluebells and other pretty wildflowers. It looks so beautiful, and I know bees and insects have a feast there. I’m always in such a dilemma over whether to mow the lawn at this time of year.
I like to take part in No Mow May, so I either mow the lawn before May or after it. You might think the most environmentally friendly thing to is to wait. But, along with all those lovely wildflowers there are brambles and tree saplings eager to take over. My rubbish mower wouldn’t be up to the job of tackling them – or even very long grass – in 5 or 6 weeks’ time.
What I’ve decided to do is mow some of the lawn, remove the worst bramble culprits by hand, but leave areas of forget-me-nots, primroses, bluebells and the like a bit longer. I did pick a few to put in a vase on my kitchen window sill. The petals are apparently edible and a few look nice floating in cold drinks.
Magically, forget-me-nots are good for love spells, especially for keeping yourself in your partner’s thoughts when you are away from each other. This could be another reason to sprinkle petals into glasses of wine you might share on a romantic afternoon in a springtime garden.
Sharing seasonal photos
Inspired by ideas in my book Rounding the Wheel of the Year, I share seasonal pictures, art, crafts, words and customs as well as a record of what’s happening in nature.
