I’ve attempted to start seeds a few times without much luck. I have the same issues I hear others talk about in my Facebook group. Plants become leggy, they turn yellow after a few weeks, or they have difficulty hardening them off. I have decided I’m going to give it another try, and for all…
Raised Bed Planting Plan for the Spring.
I’m building new garden beds this spring and created this planting plan. I have two 4×6 beds that are two feet tall. Your beds don’t have to be this tall, but I grow a lot of summer vegetables such as tomatoes and peppers, which like a deeper bed. 12 to 18 inches would also work,…
Planting for the Season
I’m often asked what Zone I am in when I post in my Facebook Group. Although I am in Zone 7, which includes North Georgia, I plant for the season I am currently in. This is a much more accurate way to plant because it is specific to my city. I google the average high…

I’m ready to get out and play in the dirt. We had a rain free day over the weekend, and I cleaned out my butterfly garden, and planted gladiolas and yarrow. My new raised bed is planted with strawberries, and the smaller second one is ready for lettuce seeds. Perennial plants are popping up and…

Stephanie Rose of Garden Therapy has written a number of books, and I have many of them. When I learned she had written a new one called Garden Alchemy I knew I wanted it. In fact, I preordered it before it was even released! The Gardening Alchemy book is packed with over 80 ideas to naturally…
Butterfly Printables
I love printables and especially these that my friend Rebecca, a graphic designer did for me. She creates all of my soap and bath and body labels, and I’m always happy with her creations. I asked her to make these four butterfly printable pages that can be printed out and kept in a notebook. They…
