We’ll cover a variety of topics including garden design, soil building, plant/tree care and more.

Medicine comes in all shapes and sizes. Turmeric and ginger are two powerhouses that have been used for many generations as some of the most potent and cure all types of medicine.

We are proud to offer two new products on our website. In addition to BKK and Indira yellow turmeric, we now have our Peruvian Yellow, Bird and Buffalo Gung Ginger! They won’t last long. In addition to online ordering we will have them available at our next few spring plant shows.

Buffalo Gung is our favorite utility ginger, whereas Peruvian yellow we use for pickling and Bird we dehydrate to make ginger beer!

It’s almost that time of year! Time for last minute presents, beautiful weather and gardens that deserve to be visited. Come out to one of my favorite gardens and plant shows in Hillsborough county this Saturday from 9a-2p. Metals and Nature will be hosting the Holiday Sip and Sprout.

Over 14 years ago when I first moved to Apollo Beach this was one of the first gardens I visited and I still enjoy walking the grounds. It’s not your typical garden. It has old Florida charm, beautiful grounds and the artwork is on another level.

We will have many vegetable plants, perennials, fruit trees, and many affordable plants for the special season.

Come out and support the many local plant businesses, food vendors and of course Metals and Nature this Saturday from 9a-2p!

Who knows, I might even dress up like the dog from the Grinch. 🙃

See you there!

Last night I went to the homegarden and got to hand pollinate ‘Colombiana’ pitahaya with my dad! It was a great experience. This yellow dragon can grow in Florida but needs much love and care.

Most people want to grow ‘Palora’ yellow but ‘Colombiana’ is a much better suited cultivar. In the nursery trade they sell it as ‘Yellow Dragon’ because that sells better than ‘Colombiana’ dragonfruit. We have a very limited number of clean cuttings if you’re interested send me a DM.

If you’re seriously interested in growing dragon fruit please let me know. I have a trellis system and way of planting that’s proven highly successful for all soil types in Florida.

What a great plant show to start the season! never fails to amaze. The hospitality, views, staff and people who come to show make it all worth the hustle. Grateful to be in a place where I am and happy to continue my definiteness of purpose.

The Apollo Beach Community Forest Garden has a mind of its own. At one time we thought we were in control but now it’s in control. The amount of kickback, personal sacrifice and hours we’ve put in all show. This of course couldn’t have been done without a community. A community not on this platform but one where folks show up, plant up and pour up. They pour soul, heart and maintain an infectious attitude of gratitude. Volunteers run this and good luck trying to find a w**d. Sure we aren’t perfect but who the heck is? Why the world is heated over politics, nonsense and things that don’t align with our greater purpose, I walk barefoot in a space I manifested while UF IFAS does a little dance with plants. Still can’t believe the red tape, backlash and many folks telling me it couldn’t happen. Look moma I made it! I could leave tomorrow and know that years from now kids can eat mangoes, dance with native plants and argue over which banana tastes better. What a trip life is. The next project is yet to come.
