Who’s that girl!? 😍💜

Lupinus, commonly known as lupin, lupine, or regionally bluebonnet, is a genus of plants in the legume family Fabaceae. The genus includes over 199 species, with centres of diversity in North and South America. Smaller centres occur in North Africa and the Mediterranean. They are widely cultivated both as a food source and as ornamental plants, but are invasive to some areas. For instance, lupine has become an ecological problem in Iceland since the beginning of the 21st century.g

Happy 1st of September! 🍎

That back to school time of year where the teachers and students are back to class, and the parks are all ours for lunch.
With that, we are looking for a few more helping hands for the fall season. If you are interested in getting dirty with us, please message me to learn more.

Have a great day folks!

If you were a daylily, what daylily would you be? 🤔

This tough, low maintenance perennial comes in many shades and heights. Blooms grow on strong sturdy stems and last for a single day, but multiple buds grow on each stem to create continuous color for weeks.

To catch you up on our Tool Box Tuesdays, a few weeks ago we featured Yarrow for our plant of the week.

Common Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) is a hardy perennial that is beloved for its striking flat-topped flower clusters that come in a variety of colors including white, yellow, pink, red and terra cotta 🧡 This is a great plant to add some color to any dry locations.

Next, we started doing a “w**d” of the week. This has been really cool to learn because I really do just call them w**ds. What I would call bad clover, is really called Black Medick.

Black medic, Medicago lupulina, is a common, prostrate broadleaf w**d that is found throughout the United States and southern Canada. It is most often considered growing as a w**d in dry, sunny areas in turf and waste ground, such as along roadsides and railroads, but can also be a nuisance in gardens and fields. Black medic can be an indication of low soil nitrogen in lawns as it outcompetes weak grass.

This weekend we celebrated the 10th anniversary of Sweet Pea Gardening ❤️

To say I am proud would be an understatement. I’ve said it before, I think we are super heroes. We work hard, we create beautiful green spaces and deliver help to those who need it. I am so blessed and grateful to be able to call this my job, work with all the amazing people I call staff and clients, and call these beautiful gardens my office.

Thank you again to all the people in my corner that have helped along the way. Cheers!!!🥂
