Seedy Saturday

House plant shame

New year!

So I thought I'd finally make another update on this blog since I haven't done so in [insert embarrassing long ago date here]. It's a new year, and with that I'm planning on good things for my garden. Since moving to urban Vancouver I haven't had my little
