Tons of Ideas for Plants

Good morning! I so love this time of year, and I think my favorite part is being able to get outside and dig in the dirt! ha! How about you? This past Saturday we were outside all day long. We planted our garden and did a lot of yard clean up from last week’s storm. We had a raging river right through our backyard. ;) Today I am excited to be featuring Tons of Ideas for Plants with you. Some of these were linked up to the last several {wow me} wednesday parties, and I’ve included some of my favorite gardening round ups from over the years. I hope you enjoy this post as much as I enjoyed putting it together. Be sure to come back tonight for another edition of {wow me} wednesday. :)

How to Grow & Care for Petunias

Good morning! Happy Tuesday! I don’t know if you know this or not, but I love flowers! :) When we first got married (26 years ago TOMORROW!) I didn’t have such a green thumb. ha! I always planted pansies in the spring in Texas. Then I would wonder why they died so quickly. Pansies don’t love heat, & they really should be planted in the fall not spring. I’ve gotten just a little bit better over the years. It’s a mix of planting the right type of flowers & watering & feeding them enough, too. For the last several years, I’ve planted petunias in our front flower pots, and I just love them! They are super easy to grow & flower all summer long & into the fall. Let me show you how easy they are to take care of! :)

DIY Herb Garden {tutorial} #digin #ad

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of The Home Depot. I am thrilled to be working with The Home Depot this spring to improve our home & garden. #DigIn #ad

Last week I told you about our DIY Herb Garden that we are making as a family! I’m excited to say that we had wonderful weather this past week, & we were able to finish staining our herb garden. Then yesterday we were able to get all of our herbs planted! Yay! Today I’m excited to share how we made our DIY Herb Garden, so that YOU can make one, too! :)

UPDATE: I stained my wood. A few readers expressed concern about this step. If you are worried about the stain leaking into your soil & herbs then simply skip this step or use a non-toxic stain. I did not stain the inside of my boxes so I wasn’t too concerned about it, but that’s just me. ;) This year I’m actually planning on doing a flower garden instead of herbs! I’ll update soon! ;)
