What to Grow in June in the Garden


Hi Garden Friend,

Summer's Here! Time to Swap Those Struggling Plants

We are heading into hot season and that means your warm season plants are finishing up and maybe aren't looking so good. If you have struggling plants, it's time to pull and replace them with plants that will do well this time of year.

Look at my What to Grow in June in Central, TX guide (or anywhere it's hot 😂) to help you decide what to plant next.

My Two Favorite Plants to Grow in the Heat

Your goal for the summer is to keep your soil covered with plants and not letting it bake in the sun. Great plants to help do this are black-eyed peas or sweet potatoes. They love the heat and provide lush green foliage even when it's 100° outside.

Don't Forget to Hydrate!

Always have a watering plan for the summer. Especially if you are leaving on vacation. How to Water Your Garden​

Hi Garden Friend! Mother’s Day is this Sunday, and if you’re shopping for someone who loves to be outside with her hands in the dirt — I’ve got you covered. I just put together my favorite gift ideas for gardeners this year, and I have to say, this list is good. We’re talking things I would genuinely want to myself (because I already own most of them 😂). A few of my favorites on the list: Bamboo gardening gloves that are actually comfortable A seed organizer pretty enough to sit on a...

Hi Garden Friend, As the temperatures start climbing, one of the most common questions I get is some version of: "Am I watering my garden right?" The honest answer?

If you’re thinking about building a raised bed (or redoing one), I put everything I’ve learned into this post: 👉 The Best Materials...
