Meet the Vicks plant - the most fragrant succulent ever. Like its name, the plant gives off a menthol scent when you brush your fingers across its velvety leaves. Super easy to grow and propagate. I think everyone who likes plants should grow this one! Not only because it’s cute, it’s also very functional.

One of the sweetest and underrated dahlia is Garden Time. I just love her bloom size (~ 2inches) and branching because she makes the most perfect bouquet filler. She has more copper tones as it gets later in the season and is a wonderful tuber maker as well. What’s not to love??

The zinnias are behind this year because I was behind about a month in planting them. The easiest kind of annual! They never disappoint! This is what’s left after I harvested about 2 buckets of them.

Tall phlox, a super easy perennial. I started with 2 plants a coral and a purple. Now, I have about every shade of purple/ coral possible. If you want it compact and fuller, cut back at least once a season. Dont let it go to seed if you don’t want a jungle of Phlox.

Flowers for a graduation party with peonies that I saved using the dry/refrigerate method since peony season has come and gone a long time ago in Indiana.
