As our countdown continues, I get more and more excited for spring. I can almost smell it! If you want to overwhelm your own senses with the smell of spring today’s container garden is the perfect remedy for you.
Ingredients:
1. Hyacinth (Tall)
2. Fittonia (Thick)
3. Lemon Button Fern (Trailing)
Hyacinth has such a sweet aroma. I just can’t get enough! The roots are super dreamy too. (Tip: When buying hyacinth be sure the blooms are still tight and have not yet opened. This will ensure several weeks of bloom power.)
Directions:
1. Combine all three plants and fill your home with the scents of spring
Maintenance:
1. After you are done with this container garden plant the hyacinth in your yard for repeat blooms year after year. Dig a hole 6 inches deep and plant root side down.
If you have a lot of patience (unlike me), this Egg-Shaped Hyacinth Topiary by Martha Stewart could be a fun garden project for you this Easter.
Have a great week, everyone!
I hope your days are filled with all the happiness that the scents of spring bring.
