why did my willow tree base turn into a mini jungle overnight?

I never thought the base of my willow tree would become my favorite spot in the yard. Last spring, I tossed a few wildflower seeds around the trunk, just to see what would happen. Fast forward a few months, and now it’s a burst of color and buzzing bees. The shade from the willow keeps the soil cool, so the flowers thrive even on hot days. I learned that mulching around the base helps keep weeds down and moisture in. Plus, it looks way better than bare dirt. Every time I water, I get to watch butterflies and birds stop by. Turns out, a little experiment made my garden feel alive. If you’ve got a tree, try planting something fun at the base—you might end up with a mini jungle too! #gardeningtips #willowtree #backyardideas #naturelovers #Gardening
