Play in the Dirt

  • Good Soil: The Real Dirt

    No matter what you grow, vegetables or flowers, in a spacious garden or a pot on a balcony, the first thing you need is good soil. It took me years to understand this, and now “Soil First” is my gardening mantra.

    To read more about improving your garden soil, click on the picture above.

Create Beauty

  • Garden Inspiration

    This looks like a real balcony where anyone would love to hang out on a fine summer day. But it’s actually one of the demonstration gardens at the Northwest Flower & Garden Show in Seattle held every February. Now that I’m gardening on a small deck, you can be sure I took lots of photos to inspire me.

The Good Stuff

  • Spring Forward

    I know some people hate the semi-annual time change – spring forward, fall back – but the longer hours in the early evenings have given me lots of time to work in my new gardens. And even if you are feeling a little sleep deprived, there’s nothing like some time spent in a garden to revive you.

    March is the month to plan, plant and start seeds indoors. So get out your seed packages, find those gardening gloves, pick up a trowel, and let’s get gardening!
