FLORETTE的意思是“小野花”,所以一直想要在后院种出一片自然清新的环境。金融才子兼樸门农业学者“Mr. 肖”建议:将不同类的野花种子与培养土混匀,浇水并等待发芽。发芽后将泥土轻轻揉出不同尺寸的泥球,再撒落在花园的各个角落。
观察发芽的过程实在是件令人亢奋的事,从分不出种子还是泥泞,到发现芝麻米粒般的白色小芽,一不留神,就冒得满盆青苗,错过了揉泥球的机会。只好小心翼翼的用汤匙挖出一小片泥土,再轻手轻脚的将它们浅埋在花园里。虽然没有体验到疯狂丢泥球的过程,但同样期待小野花园的诞生!
FLORETTE means “little wild flowers”, which is why we have always envisioned a wild and unpretentious garden. Financial analyst and permaculture scholar “Mr. C” suggested that we mix a variety of wild flower seeds with soil, water and wait for germination. Gently roll the germinated mixture into different size balls and scatter across the garden.
The process of germination is one of the most fascinating things in the world! From not being able to distinguish seeds from soil, to discovering tiny white sprouts dotting the surface. Just when we turned our back for a second, the entire container is covered with green shoots, which would be badly damaged if they were to be rolled into balls… In the end, we carefully spoon out the mixture and gently bury them into the ground.
Although we did not get to throw mud balls around the yard like mad savages, we have hopes that our little Garden will grow up one day and express our savage genes.
