Hi, fellow plant lovers! My name is Lina. My little garden is in USDA zone 8b in Washington state (PNW region). I live with my husband and our dogs in a cookie cutter home with an L-shaped backyard where I started gardening from scratch.

A year or so after we moved in, I sat looking out onto our bare lawn one day and wondered how pretty it’d be if filled with plants. And that’s how it all started for me - from a small project to a full-blown passion. I began with 2 containers on the patio in the summer of 2019 to a few hundred plant varieties all around my yard by 2021.

Gardening has brought me closer to nature, relaxes my mind and gets me outside even when I don’t feel like it. I’m here to share what I’ve learned throughout my journey in hopes to inspire more people to start a garden or grow a plant - any plant because it’s such a rewarding feeling!

I appreciate all the comments, questions and advice from you and thank you for stopping by :)

Happy gardening! 🌿🌷🌸🌼🌱
