Today we’re off to Houston to visit AcAcia’s beautiful garden.
Hi y’all! My name is AcAcia. I thank you all so much for joining me on my gardening journey. Gardening has truly become a passion that is good for my soul!
A pink rose joins pink zinnias (Zinnia elegans, annual) and cosmos (Cosmos bipinnatus, annual) in a barrel planter, making a beautiful living bouquet.
Some perfect rose buds in the foreground look back at more of the garden. Lots of things are growing in containers, which is a great way to make the most of small spaces or sidestep soil quality problems.
Containers bring plant life around the pool, with a beautiful thriving red rose in one of them.
An absolutely perfect bloom on this rose!
It isn’t just roses in this garden; developing tomatoes will soon be ready to harvest.
The gardener herself stands by the pool, with some of her container plantings behind.
