Hi everyone! I’m excited to be part of this space where creativity and gardening meet. In my own garden, I’ve been experimenting with layering plants turmeric and ginger under trees, chives among roses, and a few surprises tucked into pots. I’d love to hear what combinations or experiments you’ve tried. What’s been your most unexpected success? Let’s share ideas and keep inspiring each other to grow gardens that feel alive and unique.

Gardens grow best when ideas are shared. I’ve been experimenting with layering plants turmeric in the lowest tier, ginger tucked under trees, and herbs weaving through the beds. It’s amazing how one seedling can inspire a whole new approach. What’s the most surprising plant combo you’ve tried? Let’s swap stories and keep the creativity flowing!

Every garden has its triumphs and its challenges. This season I’ve had chilies that were hotter than expected, turmeric spreading beautifully in the food forest, and herbs that decided they wanted to take over. Each moment feels like both a win and a lesson. What’s been your biggest garden win or surprise this year? Let’s share and celebrate the lessons together..
