Growing season is in full swing with long days and warmer temperatures. I encourage anyone to a small flower patch. Now is the perfect the time to get started. . โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹
โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹
You'll be surprised at how much can be produced by growing the right flowers for your space and utilizing succession planting in order to have a continuous supply from Spring to Fall. โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹
โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹
And finally by managing the space well with proper soil nutrition, watering, feeding, and harvesting schedule. โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹
I hope to pass on tips and tricks for growing your own flowers and inspire you to start a garden in even the tiniest spaces. โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹
โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹

Happy Wednesday everyone! Ranunculus blooms are coming into their prime! So delicate looking but are really quite tough little flowers and super long vase vase.โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹

Settling back into a routine during this first week of 2022 now that the holiday season has finished. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
But I still have my tree up, it's so pretty and I've been faithfully watering it, so it still looks great!โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Counting on that not being weird for at least another week. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
The snow that fell all last week is starting to melt as temps finally make it above freezing. I forget how bright everything is with snow on the ground. We usually get a couple of inches once during Winter and it immediately melts. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
But this time we had 8+ days of temps in the teens and 20's so our 6-8 inches of snow that fell the day after Christmas stayed put. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €

26/12/2021

Happy Sunday everyone, hope you're enjoying this Christmas weekend. Wanted to pass along a technique for using poinsettias in flower arrangements. Yup they make a great cut flower!โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
You just need to know one key trick. After cutting the stem, a white substance will start to flow out the bottom. This needs to be stopped by searing the ends with a flame for 5-10 seconds. You can hold it over a candle or match to seal up the stem, don't worry it will still be able to drink water. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Be careful if removing any green leaves along the stem as well. If you rip them off, that tear along the stem will also ooze out liquid. So cut the leave, don't it rip off and leave a bit sticking out so as not to damage the stem. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Easy as that. Mix in some evergreens from your yard. Maybe cut some stems off your Christmas tree to mix in, use some pinecones to add interest and your have a great arrangement for your table. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €

Who else is reflecting on the year and planning for next year? The changing of the seasons, the holidays approaching, slowing down to spend more time with family and friends all tend to put things in perspective.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Living with more intention and purpose is one of my goals. So many things that we do seem to be accomplished on auto pilot with little thought and are part of a routine we've set up for ourselves. But if we weren't already doing it and started fresh from today, would we still choose it?โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Trying to see things with fresh eyes and an open mind. As I get older, I think time seems to go faster. And I intend to make the most of daily life, both professionally and personally for 2022. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €

We all know flowers improve our mood and make us feel happier, but they also have the incredible power of helping us boost work productivity and creativity. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
A research study at Texas A&M University confirmed that flowers improve productivity, creativity and problem-solving in the workplace. Exposure to flowers reduces anxiety and negative feelings and can even provide an energy boost. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
The study revealed both men and women experienced an increase in innovative thinking, creativity, and problem-solving with the presence of flowers in their workplace. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
As if we need another reason to love flowers and place them in our homes and offices. But here you go, enjoy!โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €

Happy Thanksgiving! Practicing gratitude on this day and appreciating all the family & friends in my life. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
I hope everyone has a wonderful week and remembers to slow down, take a breath and see all the small things around them. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
And before going crazy with Black Friday sales, and the acquisition of more stuff, think ahead to 90 days from now.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Will your future self thank you for that or are you just getting caught up in the chaos and fear of missing out? โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Happy turkey day!โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €

A behind the scenes view of my life as a farmer/florist. These are my city chickens on my micro flower farm. They are my coworkers on most days. Always trying to participate and help. So fun with their individual personalities, โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
I call them my little feather dogs as they are motivated by treats and are always happy to see me. When I arrive home, they recognize the sound of my car beeping as it locks and they will run to the back door to say hello.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
They are the official backyard greeters and welcome any visitors. Just mind where you step. But they really add so much fertility to the soil, having free range to most areas to scratch around, eating grass and bugs. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Such fun to have them around. Always curious and supervising the goings on. However, keeping them away from just planted seedlings can be a real challenge.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Have a great day everyone!โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €

We all want to enjoy the flowers in our homes for as long as possible. Therefore, maximizing the vase life is the key step. Keeping your arrangement fresh and vibrant requires that the stems stay clear and open so they can freely take up water. The following tips will ensure that you accomplish this. (For all 7 tips check out our post under the tab Resources, link for website in bio) or https://lavenderandlettuce.com/โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
ALWAYS START WITH A CLEAN VASE โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
The vase should be clean enough to drink out of it. Wash the vase prior to filling with fresh cool water. When dirt or bacteria gets into the stem, it quickly clogs, and the flower can no longer take up water. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
ENSURE THAT NO FOLIAGE IS IN THE WATERโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Strip off the lower foliage of the stem so that no leaves are contacting the water in order to keep the water clean and prevent bacteria growth. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Removing more foliage also keeps the flowers fresher longer as the stems do not have hydrate large amounts of foliage and can send more water to the blooms.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
CHANGE THE WATER DAILYโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Make changing the water a daily habit, this one step has the biggest impact on extending the vase life of your flowers. It only takes a few seconds each day but makes all the difference. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Some flowers (sunflowers, zinnias, black eyed susanโ€™s, dahlias, & others) ooze out sap that quickly makes the water dirty. While changing the water, repeat 1 and rinse or wash the vase again. Then rinse off the stems and place back into clean water.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
RECUT THE STEMSโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Every 2 days give the stems a fresh cut and trim just a little off the end. This gives the flowers a wide-open stem to once again drink from. After trimming, place the flowers once again in a clean vase with fresh water.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €

Love this photo from ! As you're cleaning up flower beds this time of the year, I encourage you to leave the roots in place for the Winter. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
One of the things I am doing differently this year when clearing out the old crop is to leave all the roots in place. I simply cut the stems at ground level instead of pulling out each plant.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
By leaving the roots, they feed all the good microbes and life in the soil. Ever notice that when you pull out a plant there are earthworms and life teaming all through the roots. Why would you remove all that lovely goodness?โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
And by not disturbing the soil, you aren't unintentionally bringing up buried w**d seeds that will now sprout in the sunlight.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
I encourage you to try this technique of simply cutting (instead of pulling of the roots) any annuals that you're removing this Fall as you tidy up your garden beds before planting any Spring bulbs or hardy annuals.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €

Hi, I'm Alicia. I live in a 1920 year built craftsman home with my four city chickens and three cats. I love to eat Thai food and drink margaritas on the rocks with extra limes! โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Ice cream only sounds good when the temperatures are above 80 degrees and coffee is always a great idea in my mind. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
I love movies and have several favorites that I return to. The Long Hot Summer with Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward....Out of Africa with Meryl Streep and Robert Redford.....the three original Star Wars....so many others. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
They're like visiting old friends. If you haven't seen the movies that I just mentioned, you need to stop what you're doing right now and remedy that immediately!โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €

"Recent research conducted by researchers at Harvard University and Massachusetts General Hospital have confirmed that flowers might be the perfect pick-me-up for millions of Americans who do not consider themselves "morning people." โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Those who feel least positive in the early hours reported being happier and more energetic after looking at flowers first thing in the morning.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
""The morning blahs, it turns out, is a real phenomenon, with positive moods -- happiness, friendliness, and warmth, for example -- manifesting much later in the day,"" says Nancy Etcoff, Ph.D. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
"Interestingly, when we placed a small bouquet of flowers into their morning routine, people perked up." โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
The final study results demonstrated that flowers impact people emotionally, causing them to feel less anxious and more compassionate. They even reported a boost of energy that lasted through their day.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Place fresh flowers in the areas where you spend the most time. This could be on your desk, in the kitchen, or in your home office.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
