One (of Many) Reasons I'm Still a Virtual Farmgirl

My oregano is about to become an invasive plant in my backyard garden and I successfully harvested shallots this weekend.

But for whatever reason, I absolutely cannot keep baskets or pots of outdoor flowers alive, at least not for long. It’s the same story for my indoor plants.

I manage to keep them going for a while, even a couple months.

But inevitably, they literally die on the vine.

I remember at some point having luck when I made my own basket mixes from seeds and sprouts.

Maybe I’ll have to go back to that, because I just haven’t mastered the art of maintaining beautiful flowering hanging baskets.
