Pansies still in full bloom in July
Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Home & Garden

Type of item: Plant or Flower

For: Garden

Style: Casual


Materials

plants, soil, fertilizer, water, mulch, time, patience, risk taking

What was your inspiration?

When we moved into our previous home, we had a much overgrown and neglected garden to contend with. As I tackled that, I found so much peace and serenity in gardening that is became a passion. Now, we have downsized and I continue to love "digging in the dirt".

What are you most proud of?

having found something that I love

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Focus on one area at a time. Have PATIENCE. Eg. It's better to buy plants with buds rather than those in full bloom. Learn the culture needed for each plant. Share with others. Have fun.
