Just a few pretties from my walk around the neighborhood today. The most magical time of the year 🥰 🌱 #bloomsky #roses #rosecity #pdx #portlandor #pnw

Peony “Coral Charm” and David Austin rose “Desdemona” both bloomed today and I am obsessed! 🌱 #bloomsky #roses #peony

A better way to approach #NoMowMay is to replace as much of your lawn as you can with native flowers, shrubs, and trees...then it can be #NoMowEver. Well-controlled non-natives can be included too! 🌱 theconversation.com/its-ok-to-mo...

My mom has two beautiful rhododendrons in her yard that were planted in the fifties. I will be propagating them this year!! Here is the red one 🥰 Visit TerraFernPDX.com and sign up for my newsletter to follow the journey. 🌱 #bloomsky #bloomscrolling #gardensky #rhodies #rhododendron #flowers

Fun fact: I literally just left these sweet peas in pots in my raised bed all winter and they’re doing the best of all the ways I trialed! They grew out the bottoms of the pots so I’ve just been letting them grow here, along with 1 pea from my cover crop mix. #sweetpeas #oregon #PNW #gardensky 🌱

Lucy knows where to find the warm soil and the spots where I won’t bother her, like the middle of this sunny native bed. Enjoy it while you can, pup, this space is about to explode! 🌱 #gardensky #nativegarden #grownative #pdx #oregon #PNW #pnwgardening

I will be propagating my mother’s dark purple lilac as one of the first steps in building my nursery business. It was planted in the early 50s! Sign up for my newsletter at TerraFernPDX.com for summer market dates and planting updates. #lilac #bloomsky #PDX #portland #oregon #flowers #PNW 🌱

Had to cut a bunch of my flowers in case the hail destroys them all 🥹 #bloomscrolling #pdx #oregon 🌱

This anemone just popped up! I did not plant it. It is in a spot next to the driveway where I cleared the weeds last year, lay cardboard and mulch, then planted my own flowers. It’s amazing what survives, dormant, waiting for us to reveal it! #bloomscrolling #gardensky #anemone #spring 🌱

Two little red flowering currants, one with blooms one with lots of leaves + golden currant + trilliums coming up! All started as bare root plants in the fall. #grownative #nativeplants #pnwnative #pnw #gardensky #gardening #rewilding #oregon #plantnative 🌱

Little gems from the garden today #bloomsky #gardensky #flowers #pansy #daffodil #pnw 🌱

An unexpectedly perfect day in the garden today! Planted out my snapdragon seedlings and the larkspur I WS’d. This lil spot is dedicated to annuals until the Golden Currant grows up. Calling it my Cottage Garden Bed. Tulips are on their way! #pdx #pnw #gardening #gardensky 🌱🌷

High protein flourless muffins actually turned out supper fluffy! #glutenfree #celiac #baking #glutenfreebaking

Happy St. Patrick’s Day, gardeners! 🌱🥔 #potatoes #gardensky #gardening #growyourown #PNW #oregon

Omg HELP what pattern adjustments do I need to make to these pants and is there any hope for altering this wearable muslin? I’m afraid the pattern is just too full in the upper thigh, but it also looks like my butt eating them 😳😭 #sewsky #persephonepants #sewyourown #alterations #sewing

Indian Plumb flowers are a favorite of hummingbirds. Always gotta snag a pic with it when it blooms! 🌱 #grownative #nativegarden #wildlifegarden #gardensky #gardening #pnw #oregon #pdx

Planted out fava beans today! Variety ‘Karmazyn’ from uprisingorganics.com I surrounded them with blue spruce clippings to keep slugs away. Used limbs left over from pruning my Dad’s apple tree as the supports. #PDX #growyourown #gardening #gardensky #veggarden 🌱 #zone8b

My first post was about sweet peas I started on 1/4 outgrowing their containers. US gardeners said I started them too early, but all the UK advice was clear that it wasn’t. And look at me now!! They’re hardened off and planted in the ground! Just when nursery’s are starting to stock them. #iwin 🌱

More camellia spam because I’m in love with them now #bloomscrolling #camellia #flowers #bloomsky #gardensky #gardening 🌱

IYKYK #potatoes #gardensky #growyourown #gardening 🌱 🥔

Rose “Bring Me Sunshine” was a new introduction to David Austin last year and I couldn’t resist buying bare root. It was wonderfully productive and I’m in love with it at every stage, from bud to how it wilts! Good scent #rosewednesday #bloomscrolling #bloomsky #gardening #roses #davidaustinrose 🌱

Help! What do we think was eating my fava bean starts? I put blue spruce clippings around them in case it was slugs but I’m not sure. 🌱 #gardening #gardensky #growyourown

My camellia started blooming! That means spring is truly almost here! #bloomscrolling #bloomsky #gardensky #gardening #camellia 🌱

We’re having the most glorious false spring day in #PDX today, so I broke down my cover crop! Should be ready for potatoes by St.Patrick’s Day 🤗 🌱 🥔 #gardening #covercrop #soil #organicgardening #zone8b

Nephew #3 and I made snickerdoodle’s from “Let’s Bake Gluten Free Volume 2” by Erin Collins tonight. Used King Arthur measure for measure. They’re very airy, which is not what I typically think of for snickerdoodle’s, but they’re yummy! #glutenfree #gf #gfbaking #baking #cookies #celiac

Tried the snail roll method for starting onions and learned that there is a specific direction you need to roll them for it to unroll with the soil on top, and I didn’t do it 😳 Think it worked out in the end though!🤞🌱 #gardensky #gardening #snailroll #growyourown #veggiegarden #veggies

Oh, and for all the winter sowing I did back in January only the California poppies and Larkspur are doing anything significant. I know it’s still early though, so I hope to see more jugs full of life soon 🌱🤞 #wintersowing #wintergardening #gardening #gardensky #flowers #growyourown #zone8b

Visual progress report on all my seedlings #gardening #plants #gardensky #zone8b 🌱

Oh snap, @chalkandnotch.bsky.social is on here so that means I actually already completed the #sewskychallenge2025 ! Just happened to finish these two Wren blouses this weekend. I’ll still try to get the Persephone pants done though 😅 #wrenblouse #sewing #sewsky

In early January, I began work on a new in ground garden bed. Full sun for my hot peppers! I used my pitch fork like a broad fork so I could root out all the dandelions. Today’s break in rain made for the perfect conditions to finish the other half! Just needs compost + ☀️ + 🌱 #gardening #pdx

Ok y’all, I’ve had this pattern and fabric in my stash for… 8 years? I’m going to do it thanks to the #sewskychallenge2025 !! Wish me luck! @annaallenclothing.bsky.social #persephonepants #sewsky #garmentsewing

It’s Presidents Day and you know what that means #gardensky : Time to prune your roses! Here is the before and after of just a 2 I got to today, both hybrid teas in their second year. #gardening #roses #hybridtea #pruning #oregon #pdx

Pricked out the snapdragon seedlings and I have a total of 42! Should be enough for my garden, my grandma’s garden, and my parent’s garden (I grow for all of us!) #snapdragon #gardensky #gardening 🌱 #zone8b #pdx #portland #oregon

Diamond Textiles “tiny pluses” woven cotton looking lovely close up! Loving the reverse side as the sleeve cuff detail. #sewsky #sewist

I submit for you, my 11 year old chihuahua-corgi mix Lucy ❤️ #positiveflow #pawsitiveflow #dogsky #chorgi 🐶

Absolutely thrilled that my ranunculus and pansies made it through the snow relatively unscathed! #gardening #gardensky #pdx #oregon #wintergardening 🌱

My first scratch bread loaf was pretty dang good! Happy with everything but the rise, and it was pretty cold today. Recipe is the Sandwich Bread from “Baked to Perfection” #glutenfree #celiac #baking #bread

I’m in the big leagues, now 💙 #glutenfree #baking #glutenfreebaking #kitchenaid #adulting

Plants and animals all worshiping the sun on this super cold winters day 🥶☀️ #pdx #portland #oregon #chorgi #smol

I tried these parrot tulips last year but they weren’t as dramatic as the packet showed. Still have fun! #containergarden #2024garden #TulipTuesday #gardening 🌱

I collected Cosmos seeds from a couple of flowers my neighbor planted along the sidewalk. I wasn’t expecting much from them, but it looks like I’ve got 100% germination after just a few days! That’s 24 free plants! 🌱 #gardening #seedstarting #cosmos #flowers

Got all these friends started over the weekend! #zone8b #pdx #seeds #gardening #growyourown #portland #oregon 🌱

My favorite daffodil, “Baby Moon.” They smell so good! #YellowSunday 🌱

Why did these fava bean tap roots freak me out so bad? I was not expecting that when I lifted the tray! Something about them gives me the creeps 🤣 #gardening #growyourown 🌱

My vote for #easygrowing has got to be a bush green bean! The first food crop that made me feel successful and encouraged me to grow more. They produce for the whole season, I’ve never seen any pests on them, you can eat fresh, pickle, and easily save seed for free plants the next year.

Don’t overthink it: The recipe on the back of the Tollhouse chocolate chip bag is always a banger, even made gluten free! #celiac #baking #glutenfree

Too early to start tomatoes in the PNW? I don’t care, they’re the joy I need right now! Microscopic pansies, onions, and snapdragons peeking out today, too.
