Remember to use potting soil if growing lavender in containers or a 50/50 mix of native and planting mix if growing lavender in the ground soil. * Herbs, such as basil, thyme, rosemary, oregano, and sage You can read more about plants to grow with lavender in my post, The Best Lavender Companion Plants. You can grow lavender from seeds, although it is more difficult than growing other plants from seeds. Mini Lavender Recipe Book Learning how to grow lavender, harvest it, and use it in your own recipes may seem overwhelming, so don’t forget to learn one thing at a time and to have a lot of fun growing your own lavender!
String of Pearls look like small, green pearls hanging from a long, green thread. Fish hooks are known by several names, such as string of fish hooks, senecio fish hooks, and fish hooks plant. The leaves grow in a curved shape from the vine, except there is an additional “fin” that sticks out from the top, making the leaves look like miniature, green dolphins. The leaves look similar to beads and grow on stems that usually grow up to two inches before they start hanging down.
Poppies make great cut flowers for bouquets and centerpieces, since they bloom in bright colors and some varieties have long stems that you can cut to place in vases. These tough-growing flowers have short lives and prefer to grow in the shade in well-draining soil. Wildflowers are a great way to fill up an empty space in your garden with flowers that would normally grow in your region. If you aren’t ready to grow these flowers from seeds, purchase young plants at your local garden store in the springtime to enjoy in your garden.
Since winter is when plants, even evergreens, are slowing down, they require only minimal care, making them super easy to maintain in winter. So, for example, if you are in USDA growing zone 7, you want to pick a plant that is recommended for 6 as well. So the very same plant is less cold hardy growing in a pot versus growing in the ground. The Gold Mop Cypress is a great container plant when you want some vibrant color and an exciting display.

I was trying to find just the right thing to post with this when I found this verse: I will sing of steadfast love and justice. Psalm 101:1. #blackoutday2020 #blackouttuesday #mutedandlistening #psalms #bibleverse
I thought I would stick a selfie in here today since I haven't done that in awhile. I look tired in this picture, lol! I was trying to discreetly take a selfie while at a restaurant for the first time in over 2 months. What a crazy world we live in, right? I hope you are safe, no matter where you are right now. #selfie #selfiesunday #selfiegirl #selfiegram #selfiemoment #selfietime📷 #selfieoftheday #selfie📷 #selfieoftheday #lifestyleblogger #gardenblogger #lablogger #bloggersgetsocial #bloggervibes #bloggersofinstagram #bloggerlife #sunday_funday #lazyweekend #flowerblogger #blueeyes #naturallight
Love these nasturtiums! I just added these to my patio garden this year. I grew them from seed in eggcrates. I have them in several pots mixed with other flowers. What new plants have you added to your garden this year? Have a great week! . . . #nasturtium #nasturtiums #flowerstagram #yellowflowers🌻 #flowersofinstagram #instaflower #flower_super_pics #flowers #flowerslovers #instaflower #mygloriousgardens #gardening #mypatio #inmygardentoday #containergardening #instagarden #gardenlife #floralinspiration #ilovecolor #urbangardening #mayflowers #companiongardening #growyourown #gardenlife #instagardenlover #nature #grow #flowerlover #backyardfun #plantsmakemehappy
I have two of the same hydrangeas that look completely different. One is on the front porch in shade and the other is in the back and gets several hours of sunlight. I love them both though. They are growing in containers. Do you have more than one of the same plant that look different?

My morning glories have been blooming. I have several located in the back and front of our place. I bought a few seed varieties to try to grow. I love their bright blooms. Hubby put a trellis behind these guys. I can't wait to see our wall filled with these flowers in a few months!

I made a friend in the garden last week! Two young doves made our back porch their home during the day while their parents searched for food. I was trying to keep my distance while cleaning up my garden when this guy flew up to get a better view. He was only a few feet away from me! I haven't seen much of him or his sibling since, but it was fun watching the babies roam in the back over the last few weeks. What have you been up to? Have a great weekend! . . . #gardenbirds #dove #mourningdove #gardenbird #doves #doveseason #inmyplace #mourningdoves #itshotoutside #itshotoutthere #succulentgarden #inmyelement #succulentplant #succulentcollection #inmyownworld #succulentbabies #succulentarrangement #inmygarden #inmygardentoday #inmybackyard #porchgarden #apartmentgardening #apartmentplants #apartmentgarden #californiacoast #saturdayvibes #springtimevibes #containergardening #greenaesthetic #greenplants
My pink hibiscus is blooming. The colors seem more vibrant than I remember. I've been experimenting with different fertilizers, so that might be why. Still waiting for my hybrid tea rose behind it to bloom. I need to work on my patience, which is hard these says. I'm just taking one day at a time. Its a new week, so hopefully things will be looking up.
