The BIC Plant and Gardening Thread

[sister13]

Hello BIC friends and fellow gardeners! Whether you have a container on your balcony, some indoor plants, a whole garden, or even if you just happen to visit a botanical garden or see a lovely space or plant in your neighborhood you want to share, this is the place! Please share pics, tips, plans and tricks about all things gardening!  

For many years I had a container balcony garden with mostly flowers and herbs (when travel allowed), and I am now embarking on my first backyard landscaping and gardening journey. 

I am often taking inspiration from the natural world around me and have recently had some spring inspiration for the Makeup Challenge of the Week and have loved chatting about gardening in our other threads, so I thought a new thread would be nice. 

It’s always so interesting to me to see plants and gardens from different regions and countries, so I hope you’ll join the conversation!  

PS: if you create a makeup look based on some plant or garden inspiration, please feel free to post your look or flat-lay here, too! 

Here are a few pics of my spring bulbs to start and I’ll share more soon (kindly ignore the weeds)!

You have such a gorgeous garden @sister13 ! Your bulbs are starting to give the best of them! 😍😍😍😍 I love bulb plants because they come back every year. They are “smart”, as my aunt says about them. 😊

Keep sharing to see how everything grows/develops ! 😃

Yes, I like that they don’t need extra watering or anything -just plant and forget about them until it’s time to enjoy them! ! I’ll probably throw some bonemeal down soon but definitely a great payoff year after year for a little bit of effort!  @Saradestin
