During the two weeks before a full Moon, (so, right now!) seeds absorb more water. That's the theory behind Planting by the Moon, anyway! Plant your above-ground crops and annual flowers this week to see if it makes a difference 🌱🌓

Here's the science behind the theory: Moisture is increasingly drawn to the soil's surface during the period when the Moon is waxing, causing seeds to swell, promoting stronger germination and better-established plants.

Throughout history, people have planted according to the Moon’s phases—from the Ancient Egyptians to the Romans. Pliny the Elder, a Roman historian, wrote about the Moon’s influence on agriculture. Even in completely different regions like China and Africa, the Moon’s cycles were considered in planting practices 🌕️🌾

We create hundreds of hanging baskets each season, specializing in stunning combination baskets. Each basket is planted and nurtured from late March through May to ensure you receive a flourishing basket. With proper care, your 12" baskets should thrive 4 to 5 months or until a frost. Don't be afraid to give your plants a haircut mid-season, which would be the end of July and add some new slow release fertilizer. Come check out our inventory!
