Evening sun sunflower seeds are back in stock! long-blooming multi-headed pollinator magnets grow to about 6' tall and can still be planted in most zones.

It's July 4th, so some of you will be roasting marshmallows tonight. That sweet confection got its name from the marsh mallow (althaea officinalis). Marshmallows were originally made using the sap from the plant whipped together with egg whites and sugar (now they use gelatin instead of the sap). 🌱💚

Agostino Reghitto Genovese Basil is hands down the best tasting basil we’ve ever grown. An heirloom believed to have been brought from Italy in 1902, it has smooth Genovese flavor without the anise bite. Seeds (hopefully ) available this fall. 💚🌱

Dwarf Larkspur (AKA Spring Larkspur, Delphinium tricorne)! This brilliant blue beauty is related to buttercups, and symbolizes success, celebration, and new chances. Larkspur is also the birth flower for July! 🌱💚

We started all our watermelon and squashes directly in ground (or in this case, bucket) so they’re not as big as greenhouse starts; but look how healthy! 💚🌱🍉

Did you know our black sunflowers have black stalks and veins too? We’re currently sold out of seed but more will be available this fall. 🌱💚

Dragon's Blood Sedum starts in the spring like this - green with these purplish flowerings. It changes color throughout the year, and is a rich claret color by the fall. 🌱💚

Is it a chrysanthemum? Nope, it’s Leucanthemum; aka Shasta Daisy! This cultivar is called Real Charmer, and is my favorite daisy in the pollinator garden. 🌱💚🌼

Squash bugs and stink bugs are the bane of my existence. We don’t use chemical pesticides so every year I rely on vigilance and hand picking to keep my vines healthy. The leaves with egg clusters and any live bugs make a healthy snack for the chickens though! 🌱💚

Veronica I've had for 12 years, carried to three different houses. AKA speedwell, this pretty perennial is said to symbolize loyalty and fidelity. 🌱💚

I have memories of climbing the mulberry tree in the summer and coming in with purple all over our faces and arms (and clothes) and no appetite for dinner. Good times. 💚

First arnica bloom of this season. You've probably seen over the counter arcica creams for treating bruises and swelling. This happy yellow flower has been documented as long ago as the 16th Century. It is believed to be connected to intuition, and symbolizes inner strength. 🌱💚

Alaska Salmon Nasturtium. This pretty golden apricot-colored bloom is cheerful to behold, even though the myth behind nasturtium is that they sprung from the fallen tears of a Roman soldier. They're said to symbolize victory in struggle. 🌱💚🌸

I love how shy poppy buds are before they erect their heads to bloom. In Greek mythology, poppies symbolized the tears of Demeter - a mythological figure who would totally love the Bsky garden feed! 🌱💚
