Yard work started today! Need to make cages for my spring bulbs so the rabbits don't snack on them - so I brought in chicken wire and zip ties to start making some tonight so hopefully I can get out tomorrow and start protecting them! #gardening #Zone5
Yesterday, March 19th, was St-Joseph's Day, patron saint of Canada. Every year on that day, my grandmother would plant her tomato seedlings. She was also located in #zone5.
Warmer does not mean warm! In #zone5 we're still 2 months from planting our gardens. However, I'll park an easy chair in a sunny spot.
A vigorous growth of purple New England asters, Symphyotrichum novae-angliae.
It's so important to choose plants adapted for your location. My garden of local natives is doing well, the only problem is they grow too tall and flop. I'll be doing a Chelsea chop, that helps.

So this is my attempt to start pepper seeds in my window in my tiny MN apartment. There are 4 varieties in each jug, with the idea that once they are big enough to pot up individually. #gardening #Zone5 #VegetableGardening #UrbanGardening

Small Daisy like white flowers with bright yellow centers
Smaller Spikes of lavender purple flowers around the base of one larger spike.
Pale orange Alaska, salmon nasturtium flowers with variegated white and green foliage
Multiple fuzzy pale orange cylindrical flowers sticking out from a central spiky base
A few of the flowers still going despite the two frosts we’ve had; feverfew, Veronica, nasturtiums, and klip dagga 🌱💚

I will be adding so many verbena bonariensis next year to the garden. There had to be at least 12 monarchs on this one little patch. #pollinators #minneapolisrosegarden #minneapolis #zone5
Busy weekend in the garden. Oils watch this hummingbird all day #minneapolis #pollinators #zone5 #bloomscrolling
It's warm again today (82F) and so I went to my local farmers market (my backyard garden) and got some groceries (pumpkins are just decorative). I love my garden 🧡

Ok beef stock started in the crock pot. Need to run and grab a few herbs to throw in before ignoring until tomorrow when I'll make beef butternut stew again. #gardening #Zone5 #VegetableGardening #UrbanGardening
