i heart gardening

Small urban edible landscape.

I garden in zone 3b in Alberta, Canada. I garden outside in the summer and inside during the winter.

When I bought my current house, it was new with a blank canvas for a yard. I initially started my landscaping with lawn and trees for privacy. Over the last few years my passion has for gardening has grown. I have now progressed into more vegetable growing. I have learned a lot along the way. I would like to share some of that journey and passion for gardening with you.

    Yes, they are double play artist spirea. I would say part sun. They get sun in the morning and later in the afternoon.

    The ones on the driveway are from Lowe's. So are the gray square ones on the west side of the garage. The gray rectangle ones I found at a local greenhouse.

    @@iheartgardening9907 Thank you so much! I will be sure to check my local Lowe's and a few of the independent garden centers in my area. I have enjoyed watching your videos so much and hope you will continue to film your garden during the various seasons so we can see how it transforms from one season to the next. You live in a very cold climate, zone 3B/4A. I'm in Michigan, zone 6A/6B. I'm trying to include some winter interest shrubs/small evergreen trees into my small backyard landscape, while also providing some food for birds during the cold winter months. Gardening is my outlet for creativity and i use the winter months to plan for the next gardening season. I'm sure you do the same! Thanks again for sharing the info about the self-watering planters!

    I should also say that in Calgary where I live, you can get free wood mulch from the city, but you have to load it. Not sure you would access to a pickup truck?

    Yes, there is one eco center in my city that has mulch but apparently they didn't have any when I was looking. Believe it or not I loaded the compost up in the trunk of my compact car! I just lined it with a tarp.

    what a great idea...i have several planters like this that i can apply this to....btw what zone are you in?? going by your accent, you sound northern....you can also use thin wire instead of zipties thus making no holes it will just go through the burlap easily. pansies won't last long they are a cold weather plant. what a great DIY video!!
