This post wraps up the project so I thought I'd share some ideas I've accumulated across the year

/ throwing seeds into soil that was already put together in hodge-podge way will yield less-than-superior results. Starting them off in little containers is a much more sensible idea (thanks Jane for that one!) 


/it takes time to learn how to garden but don't be afarid to ask or seek out the info and once you start gathering information it will all start to come together and make sense


/seed bombs are more complex than they may seem but don't let that deter you from doing good work and planting! It's way better to try out things and fail then to never try at all.


/flowers are amazing and bring so much joy


/there is never the perfect time to plant, don't be scared if you're a renter or may need to move soon, just the act of planting is an incredible thing and plus there's always the ability to plant in pots that allow you to bring your plants to your next home - plus the bees will thank-you!


I'm super glad I embarked on this journey and I will continue to grow flowers as the years go on.

 I hope I've inspired someone out to dive in as well :) 
Thanks so much for reading along and stay tuned for my 2019 project!!

Year of Blooms - November

floral photography

Being down to the second last month of my project (with my sunflower seeds and kangaroo paws being the last seedlings I've planted) it was a whole lot of flower play and orchids happening this November.

monthly blogger challenge

Ben and ended up at an orchid show in our town which further fueled my love of orchids.  I left the show with a delightful yellow orchid and then picked up another beautiful pink orchid (below) later in the month *orchid obsessed*
