The first of my royal purple & golden sweet #SnowPeas have emerged. I grow the more commonly known green Oregon snow peas too. I love eating #peas - fresh n raw from the garden or cooked.
I got the vase for free. It's part of set of 3 glassblown art vases. Got them from a free pile from local estate clear out, a few years ago. I'm good at scoring lots of #freebies & rarely buy anything new.
Frugal is not the same thing as cheap. I'm very frugal with obtaining useful things & quite mindful about how I spend money. I won't buy things just because they're on sale - if it's not anything I need. I won't skimp on quality for some items but will look for things that are used before looking at anything new.
Frugality is a lifestyle for me. My parents taught me how to live frugally & with lower environmental, personal impact.
Life is all about our personal choices. I choose frugal living.
Something about #ferns & raindrops falling on still #waters, that instantly brings calming, #peaceful energies to my soul. #Nature provides many free to access & free to absorb, #HealingPowers 🙏💗
#Jasmine is blooming again. We keep them indoors for 3/4 of year & move outside for late Spring-Summer. Good indoor natural air purifying #plant. Flowers are #edible & used to make tea & fruits used in #Chinese#TraditionalMedicine.
@Vanalope We use 3 & 5 gallon pots. We propagate them so baby ones are in much smaller pots until roots get strong & several branches have developed. We transplant to 3 & then 5, as they grow & bush out.
@Vanalope We grow all of ours & our ginseng plants in pots & move indoors after Summer/hot season is over. It gets too cold here to leave outside all year.
Patch of #nasturtiums attracts many beneficial insects & pollinators.
Fab companion plant for your #EdibleGarden or ornamental garden. Leaves & flowers are #edible.
