Here’s our friend, Mr T. 🐸
He’s got a message for all you humans.

In case you hadn’t noticed, we’re in the midst of a drought. 😕 Lend a helping hand to your fellow creatures by placing a dish or bowl of water outside. Here are some tips:
-Include rocks, leaves, or sticks to allow creatures to come and go without risk of drowning.
-Change water daily to avoid mosquitoes, or add a sprinkle of BT to the water.
-Place in a shady spot, or dappled morning sun. Avoid metal or black bowls that transfer heat.

If you do this all summer, you’ll make many new friends!

This is Aaron and my second year farming flowers here at our home. Many of these plants hadn’t matured enough to bloom last year. Wow! I’m so pleased with the outcome thus far!

I realize I’ve been pretty quiet throughout the winter. I’ve got big news to share, though! I’ve successfully completed the design portion of my education and am now professionally designing landscapes in Cincinnati, Dayton, and surrounding areas!

Also, beginning on May 15th, I’ll be selling weekly flowers again to those who would like to subscribe to the floral CSA. Cost will be $10 per bunch for weekly flower subscriptions. I’m excited to say that we’ll have many more varieties of flowers available this year, as the gardens have continued to mature.

Here are a few pics from the garden today. In two weeks, we’ll have many more flowers in full bloom!

Here’s a photo of the garden in its sleepy, cool-weather state. We leave the flowers through winter, and their seeds will help to feed the birds and smaller animals! ☀️

Sometimes my flowers dress up the room. Other times, the room dresses up my flowers. 😍

These zinnias (and their gorgeous age spots) serve as a charming reminder that it’s absolutely possible to grow old with grace.
No filter needed!

I was asked to make these pretty arrangements for Homecoming this year. And it seems the girls are carrying bouquets, rather than wearing corsages, which is an Oh-So-Fun idea!

Photos on the left were chosen by my client as inspiration. Photos on the right are the finished product. She especially wanted “lots of the little daisies!” How’d we do?

Check the comments for a pretty pic of Lucia with her flowers!

Busy, busy with seed starting and garden prepping!

Did you know that some seeds, like these lacy phacelia, require nicking (scarification) prior to planting?
