Today's act of hope: winter sowing! Aster, false indigo, hoary vervain, boneset, foxglove beardtongue, columbine, eastern bluestar, and liatris, all hyperlocal ecotypes (collected and distributed by my town's garden club, for free). Especially eager for more early blooms!

Liatris spicata blooming in a meadow
It’s winter now, but this is one of the best times of the year to be a gardener- I have a stack of seed catalogs, pics of my garden taken when it was at it’s best, and a complete separation from the realities of space and time constraints that will keep my garden plans from coming together.

Ooo I'm gonna need to hit some of these. I have oodles of Liatris seeds (pycnostachya & squarrosa) I harvested last year that need a home.

From here in the frozen tundra of NY, my gift is this memory of warmer days, a garden in full bloom. Just pretend the liatris and daisies are fireworks on the longest day of the year, and we are half way to spring ☺️ Wishing you a happy, healthy, safe, bountiful and peaceful year ahead. #gardening

Dans le jardin, la vie s’attarde encore. Une fleur s’élève, et de petits visiteurs viennent y déposer leur passage. Tout ralentit, comme si le monde prenait une pause.

A gift for a friend and a prayer of healing and protection. For eyes to see. Instead of manipulating stems for a manufactured look, I let the flowers speak for themselves and flow where they want to.

Can't talk about nerding out about plants without some pics 🌱 We looked at multiple cool sites from scrub to wetlands and everything in between. I love the flatwoods but the scrub fascinates me (cuz it's new to me). 😎🤓
