Got the cosmos, angelonias, and verbena put in today! All heat tolerant and drought resistant.

My garden is DONE!!! ❤️🌱✨

(not pictured is the pepper plant, celosia, marigolds, and blackberry, because I didn't add anything to it. 😂)

Very busy garden day today!

Replaced irrigation tubes & fittings ✅
Pulled Don Callis grass ✅
Planted some new marigolds ✅
Tied milkweeds back up ✅
Mulched the whole garden ✅

Future plans:

Make the blackberry stakes look nicer by building something better

Plant another berry bush!

Anyway, this is a picture of my second year garden. It also has mistflower, tomatoes, blackberries (not pictured, and not old enough to bear fruit yet!).

I have hollyhocks in the back for added dimension, but they're still little.

I'm really happy with how it's turning out so far! ❤️

Finished in 2020. Here’s the process pictures to “According to Angelonias”. No AI

Look at all these plants that survived and thrived even through a Phoenix Summer.

I am SO proud of this garden! 🥹🌱

Got cosmos for the front garden circle, angelonias for the snapdragon area, and little red flowers to fill in some of the empty spaces!

Bonus pic of the sweet nursery cat we met today at Whitfill. 😍🌱

Alright. Yesterday was 108 degrees. Today it's gonna be 89 and rainy. We've got double digit temps from here on out (🤞🙏).

Now.. To tackle these weeds! Because while #LeavesisPlants, not all plants are wanted.

Gonna rip out grass, ivy, and elm saplings (???) to give my plants some breathing room!

Went out to tend to my garden this morning. I have some weeding to do, as well as tying supports to my peppers and milkweed, and putting a border on the angelonias for support.

It's already 100 degrees at 8 am. 😭

My second year garden is so pretty. 🤩 Figured I'd share this since I'm spending a lot of time posting about the nectar and host stations.

Will be getting the Colombines into the ground this evening, and filling some empty spaces next week after it cools back down! ❤️

I've been working to the sounds of deep rolling thunder.

I finally stopped when I started getting hit with big splats of rain drops.

Here's the first update!

Before, after. Milkweed is tied to a stake, the Anna Jay weeds who keep trying to choke 'em out are outta there

Also crazy how the angelonias went *sprawling*. I never planted them before and had no idea what to expect. That one plant took over half of this garden!

Me double checking that I did as intended and reading "thrives in heat and drought" on the angelonias

Punk as fuck:

Watching the morning light hit my cherry tomatoes

Wondering if hummingbirds will find the newly bloomed native penstemon

Admiring the splashes of purple in the angelonias

Building a habitat garden to help wildlife that’s been harmed by capitalism, now boosted with love.

Here is the other part they like to talk about! The tomatoes are first year, just about everything else is second year!

Basil, Angelonias and Aloe were already inside the porch for the night and I'm pretty sure my Cthulhu Cactus summoned the storm to begin with. 🤣

I've put them all over the base or the milkweeds, angelonias, and blackberries just in case. But I've also helped them along farther up the stem. There's not as many aphids there right this second, but trust me, there's a feast in there.

My very first pot of angelonias! I planted 3 colors in one big pot and the combo was so pretty, and the plant so easy to care for, that I became a hardcore angelonia fan. .

tava tendo feira de holambra na praça e obviamente fui tirar foto e apreciar as flores junto com as senhorinhas de idade

While helping me repot them, my mother-in-law commented the angelonias look like tiny, screaming mouths and I haven't been able to unsee it.
September 18, 2023 at 12:18 PM
Yeah, the first batch of plants I got were just "oooh! I want to grow this! Let's get it!" Starting at the end of February though (all the way up to today's cosmos and angelonias!), it was all heat resistant, drought tolerant plants.

Good luck to both of us!
April 11, 2025 at 2:12 AM
Also, it's pretty crazy just how much that ONE angelonia plant took off. 😂

Here's a before and after.

In the after, all that green on the right? Besides the tall milkweed in the back?

ALL ANGELONIA. From that ONE plant.

Everything else either died from heat or got choked out

This painting took some damage this year after making it into two shows. I’m restoring some gold on the left bottom to it’s former glory, but here is “According to Angelonias”;

✧ a socio-political painting to the rising tensions of 2016-2020 & a beautiful call to heed online humanitarians.
