Yard with multiple dandelions in it
I mixed some leaves of the lions tooth (Dandelion) with kale, arugula and lettuce for the greens on our tacos. My official taste tester said “they bite you back” but we thoroughly enjoyed them. Food from the garden or yard is that much better. 🌱 #Gardening #BridgeTerraceGardens
about 120 soil blocks mostly flowers
about 120 plants mostly tomatoes flowers and lettuce in a staged setup in a grow tent.
about 120 plants mostly peppers tomatoes and eggplant in cups.
I spend about an hour a day watering indoor plants in case you where wondering. I call it my gardening yoga. These are not all our plants but the other tents look just the same. 🌱 #gardening #BridgeTerraceGardens
A purple cluster of flowers that resembles a bunch of grapes

Low growing patch of violet blue flowers
This is Blue Violet, a native in ny, it is all over our yard. From my reading it supports all types on native insects. 🌱 #gardening #BridgeTerraceGardens
pink striped clusters of flowers
White clusters of flowers
I smelled Hyacinth for the first time but I did it all wrong. Not knowing what to expect I got on my hands and knees and put my nose right up in their and took a big sniff. It was so strong I almost fell over and might have got intoxicated for a moment. 🌱 #gardening #BridgeTerraceGardens
hen and chicks on a rock. they are a succulent with green rosette shaped leaves that have reddish purple tips.
I should have never used “chick hens” as a memory aid for “hen and chicks” I get it mixed up just about every year. 🌱 #gardening #BridgeTerraceGardens
Pink hyacinth
white hyacinth
These Hyacinth have made there own way. I know very little about bulbs so I let them be till I'm better informed but they know what to do. 🌱 #gardening #BridgeTerraceGardens
not a great picture of a daffodil. a yellow trumpet shaped flower
Daffodils common name origin likely “affo dyle” dutch for “that which comes early” makes me think we have been saying it wrong all this time, ether way for me, its a well received signifier of spring. This 1 blooms 1st but it's in an odd location for pics. 🌱 #gardening #BridgeTerraceGardens
multiple vegetable seedlings in 16oz cups (144 cups mostly peppers eggplant and tomatoes)
multiple vegetable seedlings in 16oz cups (96 cups mostly flowers and tomatoes) lettuce on the sides
It always seems I plant way too many of the ones I have too many of and never enough of the one I need more of. Will be planting more wrong ones this weekend and I only have a slight plan of where I have space for them. #Gardening #BridgeTerraceGardens
An unkept yard adorned with Glory of the snow.
Glory of the snow peeking out amongst oak leaves
Its hard to see in the picture (picture #1) so I will have to set the stage. You cant take a step in our front yard without glory of the snow (picture #2) reminding you to walk accordingly. It really is a sight IRL but I cant capture that in a picture. 🌱 #gardening #BridgeTerraceGardens
Indoor home grown Lettuce in a bowl

crocus flowers closed at night.
Crocus flowers open during the day with white pedals and orange pistils.
I was not aware of the nyctinastic movement of the crocus. I didn't know the word either, but now I know what to call it when a plant closes it flowers at night like the Crocus below or others in the day like the Evening primrose. 🌱 #Gardening #BridgeTerraceGardens
Picture of singular snowdrop flower white drooping flower
picture of bunch of white crocus not yet in full bloom. Its looks like a white pointy protrusion from the ground.
Snowdrop and Crocus I didn't plant and I don't have pictures in our garden data from previous years. Come visit bridge terrace gardens where even the critters know how to garden. These are the first flowers I see in our gardens this year. 🌱 #gardening #BridgeTerraceGardens
amaranth, sunflowers, columbine and zinnias sprouting in 3 days they are in soil blocks under lights.
three days germination and now we have double the plants, 480 so far. For me they don't count till they get outdoors but still it is exciting. In the picture you can see mainly amaranth, sunflowers, columbine and zinnias but this has many tomatoes coming. 🌱 #gardening #BridgeTerraceGardens
