Project: Sprout & About

Time for a quick update! I am so eager to share my photos from the greenhouse and show where and how the project is going right now. July’s warm summer days have FINALLY brought beautiful blooms, gorgeous flowers, and even baby fruits! Excitement overload! And hey, the first tomatoes are ready, too! What?! ❤

Here’s my pretty sprout working station, which has also become a space for wondering and meditation.

The Noire de Crimée tomato has been growing the most, and now, it has reached the ceiling. What do I do? Should I cut it down? All the tomato varieties are growing healthy and at great speed. It’s hard to get my head around the fact that a few months ago, there was still nothing… and look at the greenhouse now!

It’s also incredible to think that once tiny sprouts, now big plants, are bearing fruit. How did it happen…

Anyway, it’s so amazing ❤

As we are enjoying warmer summer days, different flowers have started to pop all over the greenhouse. And I LOVE that! One of the most anticipated flowers was the nasturtium, which started to bloom only a week ago. The bees really seem to love them, too.

This marigold variety grows surprisingly big, and it has taken up a lot of space in my garden beds. I had to remove stems from here and there, and some I replanted elsewhere in the garden. It’s quite a resistant plant, really.

Here’s one experiment I started late spring. I am simply mesmerized looking at this summer flower lasagna ❤ Dahlia might be my new favourite flower.

I feel like I am living the peak point of my Sprout & About journey as all the plants are at their most vibrant colours and starting to produce fruits and vegetables. It’s just pure plant happiness, and I hope I can transmit bits of that beauty through these photos. Sometime soon, I will share photos from the garden plot as well.

Until then, I am soaking up all the sun I can get and getting the most from this summer.

Bloom on, just like these tiny sprouts ❤
