Ultimately, starting a garden with your child is beneficial in more ways than one and will help them build skills that they can use for the rest of their lives.

The benefits of gardening cannot be understated, especially when it comes to our mental health. Outdoor gardening has a fair amount of cardiovascular and other physical benefits, but for those who do not have the space outside, indoor gardens are just as viable an option. Here are the many types of gardens you can grow inside and how to create them.

English lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) is an excellent way to add a mid-summer pop of color to your garden or patio. We love to plant it somewhere we can enjoy its beautiful scent.  English lavender is more tolerant of colder temperatures common in the Marquette area than French lavender, making it an excellent choice for herb gardens and perennial borders. This member of the mint family features aromatic leaves and flowers that are popular for cooking purposes, medicinal use, and home projects.  The following are just a few of the benefits of adding lavender to your home garden.

It’s time to start turning those winter garden designs into actual garden planting. When choosing your plants, be sure to select plants that are well suited to the climate here in Marquette and fill your beds with a mix of annuals and perennials.  Annuals allow you to adjust your overall garden design from year to year, while the perennials provide an established framework. Let’s take a closer look at the difference between these two types of plants.

Mother’s Day is the one day a year we set aside to acknowledge the immeasurable impact that mothers have on our lives. This is a day we honor our own mother, other women who are knocking the mom thing out of the park, and those women who have stepped in to nurture us in the times we needed it most. So how do you choose the best gift for your mom, wife, sister, grandma, friend, teacher, mother-in-law, or mentor? We may be a bit biased, but there is nothing quite like flowers to put a smile on a woman’s face and let her know how much you cherish and appreciate her. The following tips can help you choose just the right flowers for the women in your life.
