My daughter transformed discarded items like leftover flooring, a theater prop vase, and pond liner into a stunning water feature, proving that creativity can turn waste into beauty.

Winter sowed amaranth seeds for a dramatic pop of color in my fall garden! 🌟 The 'Dreadlocks' variety is a favorite of mine - those long, curly tassels are beautiful. Has anyone else had success with winter sowing amaranth? What are your tips? 🤔 #WinterSowing #Amaranth #Dreadlocks #GardeningTips"

In the heart of the garden sits a charming old bird bath. Beloved by birds, beloved by bees 🐝, and a joy for me 🥲.

Gardening offers countless opportunities for learning. Today, I took delivery of Pinto and Yukon Gem potatoes, late and early varieties, respectively, certified by Maine Organic Farmers and Growers Assn. in a Polish tabloid about "a 40 yr old man with his 1st wife". I'll update you on both.

Nature's clock is ticking away! 16 days after planting sweet potatoes, a garnet slip has emerged, followed by 3 more today. The ginger may need a bit more time, but with some extra warmth from the heating pad, I'm optimistic it'll make an appearance. I’m excited to observe the root structure grow.

I'm excited to breathe new life into my lower level office, turning it into a vibrant gardening workspace, and convert the upstairs guest room into a cozy nursery. Next, I'm looking forward to overcoming the challenges of germinating ginger.

The skeletonization of the leaves. Once a flock of finches told me earwigs were in the cabbages. I went to see what they were talking about. I picked most of the red cabbage. The next day earwigs had started eating.

This is my only rose bush. I inherited it when I bought the house. Nursed it back to health by feeding the soil.

What’s more French than lavender? These fragrant blooms are great for adding some elegance to your French country garden.
