Stinky pee season has officially begun!

I think I'm going to eat the fat ones and let the thin ones go to fern to nourish the roots.

Bean update! A second sprout has emerged. And they both have leaves! #gardening #containerGardening

In better news, I totally thought nothing was happening with my container garden, but right on schedule….! (There are a few more teeny tiny little sprouts but they didn’t photograph well) (yes I watered them right after photographing)

Squee! I had thanked my Palestinian friend for the orange #PersianButtercup gift. Then, I had asked if he knew where I could find more in different colours, locally. He just surprised me with a beautiful pink one! Just came by & dropped it off on his way to work at VGH.
I love it!!! 💗😍

My first pretty #PersianButtercup has bloomed. It was a gift from a local Palestinian friend 🧡 They told me that it's native to Palestine 🇵🇸

Visually, they resemble roses/peonies. Ornamental/cut flower uses only.

This has got to be one of my easier containers. Planted in lockdown, it’s had next to nothing done to it since. The crocus are over and the tulips have still to put in an appearance. What is unexpected are the two ribes that have suddenly appeared. I’m waiting to see if they flower before relocating them.

By SJ McShane
Published on February 16, 2026

"No matter the size of your garden—or lack thereof—you can grow your favorite fruits at home. Container gardening is the ideal solution for small growing spaces, allowing you to cultivate a vibrant assortment of fruits on your balcony, porch, or patio. Even if you have ample space, you might consider container gardening with fruits for convenience and to enhance the aesthetic of your outdoor areas.

"Whether you're an experienced gardener or a beginner, many fruit varieties thrive in containers, adding flavor and beauty to your living space. From peaches to blueberries, our expert growers offer delicious fruits that are easy to care for and thrive in pots and containers."
