Oh, Jo! Your garden is so jam packed full of delightful treasures! I love it so much!!! – I laughed out loud about the thing that you said about the yogurt and Martha Stewart! I’d like to see her try to garden down here! Wouldn’t that be a hoot? I don’t think she could retain the same aura of confidence and composure. LOL! – Wow! You even have bidens! I also have a bidens pink! It’s my first year growing it, so that’s good to know about cutting it back! So far mine isn’t outta control, BUT I know that bidens alba can get that way. I got some seeds from an obliging field once and threw them in my front yard and it grew like crazy and the bees and butterflies had an actual field day on those flowers. It was the most popular girl in school. But dang, things went south with its scraggly overgrowth and then just overall dank presence. I realized then that I was also gardening for myself, and my butterflies and bees were going to have to make do with more polite flowers. – Bidens pink seems like more of a lady…..so far. – I love your succulent theater!!! With all those shapes and colors it almost looks like it could be a coral bed under the sea! I expect some clownfish to pop out of one of the plants at any moment!
I hope you can get your Russian sage to grow like we see it in the magazines! So tall and purple and standing straight up! I’ve only grown it twice and I’m definitely failing it, the first time with neglect and now this second time with too much love!
Wondering, when you grow zinnias from seed, do you just throw the seed in different spots and they grow? Or do you have to make little holes and cover with soil???
Jo, I just discovered your channel. I also live in Houston and am so thrilled to find a channel that comes from my neck of the woods! I'd love to know more about your pots that get mossy!

Oh the foxtail ferns are so pretty. Do you just trim them down in the spring?
