How Does Your Garden Grow?

What’s Your Garden Personality?

Did you know that if you spend just a few minutes gardening it can lower your stress level and heighten your creativity? It’s true, gardening is not only a fun hobby it’s also good for your well-being.

From container gardens, to veggie gardens, to pretty rose gardens, to wildflower gardens which type of gardening most resonates with you?

Container Garden:

If you like container gardens like I do, it means you are perceptive and an idealistic dreamer, optimistic and full of life!

There is no limit to how creative you can be with gardening in containers, and there are many advantages to potting plants rather than transferring them into beds.

You can grow your own herbs, fruits, and vegetables in containers on your porch or kitchen windowsill.

Container gardening is a great way to keep flowering plants no matter where you happen to live. If your home is in an urban environment, you can artfully arrange the pots and plants on your porch or balcony.

Veggie Garden:

If you prefer veggie gardening it means you’re a practical nurturer, and you’re always cultivating what matters most love and connections.

A perfectly ripe, juicy tomato, still warm from the sun. Sweet carrots, pulled from the garden minutes (or even seconds!) before they’re eaten.

Growing your own vegetables is one of those activities that balances practicality and indulgence.

In addition to the convenience of having the fixings for a salad right outside your door (or on your windowsill), when you grow your own vegetables, you’re getting the most nutritional bang for your health as well.

Wildflower Garden:

From daisies to sunflowers if you prefer wildflower gardens you’re imaginative and a free spirit, with a can-do attitude!

A backyard wildflower garden can be an excellent low-cost and low-maintenance option for your garden.

Whether you have a small urban space or a large suburban yard, you can easily plant and maintain a beautiful wildflower garden filled with color and life.

Attract butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds, there are so many beautiful wildflowers producing both nectar and pollen that will attract the pollinators into your wildflower garden.  Plus, it’s a great way to support a healthy ecosystem.

Keep in mind, the region where you live will determine which wildflowers will grow best for you and your pollinating visitors.  So make sure to look for wildflowers that are native or naturalized in your area.

Rose Garden:

If your attracted to rose gardens it means that you have discerning taste and you bring elegance to your everyday.

A beautiful rose garden is a place to enjoy the peaceful aroma of all types of rose bushes. From yellow, to white, to pink, to vivid red, a modern rose garden is defined by their growing type.

Roses can serve as cut flowers, screens, borders, container plants, hedges, ground and wall cover and as specimen plants in the landscape.

There are thousands of types of roses. Bloom color, foliage, size, fragrance and plant shape are all considerations.

Since roses adapt to planting in-ground, in containers or even in hanging baskets, they serve many purposes in the home landscape. And roses are not only beautiful, they also smell oh so fabulous too!
