The 2022 Garden season is on its way. Have you heard about the latest trends for the coming season? If not I am here to share the news. We are seeing an increase in plans for climbing plants, more color, and water wise planting.
These trends are not exclusive to vegetable or ornamental gardens alone. Over the past few years the line between what constitutes a vegetable and ornamental garden has become more blurred as people are making their growing space more productive. Now that you are harvesting from all growing spaces it is time to work on beautifying the same spaces with color from the ground up.
If you feel like your garden could use more color we recommend checking out our flower seed options. We are continually adding more variety to our offerings. Something we have been especially passionate about here at TLM is protecting the wildlife and bee populations.
To support our flying friends we have created multiple wildflower mixes that are easy to plant, and beautiful to look at. If you have a hot, sunny space that you just can’t seem to fill, we have a mix for you. If you want to entice more pollinators to your food producing plants, we also have a mix for that too.
For information about water wise plants, keep an eye out for our upcoming posts.
