Gardening's hidden benefits: How digging in the dirt could bolster mental wellbeing If you spend any time gardening, you probably understand what I mean when I say it feels good — despite the lifting, sweating and straining involved.

"There’s an entire field called #horticulturaltherapy that’s dedicated to using “plant-based and garden-based activities to support people who have identified treatment needs" #gardening #mentalhealth #physicalhealth www.nsnews.com/health/garde...

Thank you, tee!🫶
I stumbled into #GardenTherapy (or #HorticulturalTherapy). What a boon for cPTSD peeps.
(#PTSD, now not just for veterans!)

Close up photo of (I think) a Black Spicebush Swallowtail butterfly (Papilio troilus) on a purple Butterfly Bush (Buddleja sp.) The background is a blurry gray.

New shoots bring fresh hope,
Gardening melts stress away,
Healing hands grow calm.

2 stems of different color flowers at different states of blooms viable, bound with a rubber band look like one stem with 2 separate flowers on them

An interesting close view inside the reproductive organs with multiple pistols and stamens in the same space. Able to be carefully made to bear seeds that contain another gladiolus flower from simple color variety to different color and type of species to cultivate a hybrid

A little bit after but the 2nd from bottom flower should be unpacking a bit less then shown to be perfect for earliest to cut for longest time that in vase will continue unfurling all the way to completion

A butterfly 🦋 shape as this flower is viewed from underneath where the support allowed the top heavy stem to fall but not take the water and the other stems over with it

Making simple gladiolus flower stems together while returning energy to the corms for safe return when moved to better location next year. It prepares me for the immediate 10 weeks for dahlia, lily, ranunculus, and anemone planting for awesome arrangements
