Awh, thank you Vanessa!

Hi Ana! When it’s tidy and weeded it is very satisfying to spend time in. I’m so happy that you guys still like reading these posts.

Hi Christine! The shadier stuff definetley takes longer, and fullness probably depends on how many years any perennial has been growing for as well, so don’t be discouraged. My all time favorite nursery is in Minnetonka and is called Tonkadale Greenhouse (especially for my window boxes annuals), I stop in at Bachman’s a lot as well.

Amanda, So happy to hear that my posts help when it comes to choosing perennials for your garden. I get so much inspiration from gardeners in my area too, I have a walking route where I go visit all of my favorite gardens.

Thank you so much, Bridget!

Hey Shilo! So glad you found inspiration here. We love the hammock, and use ours all the time. We’ve had the frame for probably 5 or 6 years and it is held up well, it needs a new coat of stain, but besides that, it’s not splitting or anything. Here is the link. The hammock is equally as great, but I leave it out all summer and I usually have to replace it every other year. I buy the exact same one every time, you can find the link here.
