I planted a flower garden for my daughter when she turned 1. This is the second bloom season. We were out watering the flowers this morning and as I cleaned up I was startled by a garter snake than slid over my boots into a borrow along one end of the garden. I knew they don't pose any significant threat but I am worried for my 2 year old as we encourage her to go to the garden and play. Reading more about them here gives me more comfort to leave it be.
