Seed Starting

Here’s what I’m starting in December… Snapdragons, Celosia, Gomphrena, and Zinnias. 🌱✨

Starting seeds indoors isn’t just about getting a head start on the season—it’s about intentionality. Cultivating a variety of flowers ensures that your garden is always shifting, growing, and offering something new to look at.

Gardening does so much for your quality of life. It forces you to slow down, teaches you patience, and reminds you that beautiful things take time to unfold. There is something so grounding about nurturing life from a tiny seed and watching it bloom into something that changes your entire environment.

Are you starting anything early this year, or waiting for spring? 🌸
