Edible arrangement! 🥕

🥬 Container planting herbs and veggies gives you best of both worlds - a decorative container for your space, plus some food!

🌶️ Using containers has many perks, but having your herbs and veggies in containers means you can put them in easily accessible areas - like your balcony!

🍅 There are many edible plants that do well in containers - tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, eggplants, peas, lettuces, herbs, and even squashes and potatoes!

🌱 Planting herbs and veggies in containers can also help motivate you to use them more - easily accessible and always in sight = daily reminders to use them up!

Peonies have such large beautiful blooms 🌼

Some fun facts about peonies:
🌿 There are 3 types of peonies: herbaceous (dies back each ear), tree (woody structure remains all year), and intersectional (hybrid between herbaceous and tree)
🕰️ Some varieties can live up to 100 years
☀️ They prefer full sun but some will tolerate some shade
✂️ Low maintenance - deadhead after they bloom, and cut back in fall (if yours are prone to diseases)
