It’s no secret that having beautiful photos is a great way to quickly elevate your brand online, but what if you were able to take the photos yourself - with your smartphone?! Even if you hire a professional (which I always encourage), it’s important to be able to take daily photos for your business
Bela Lugosi Daylily is such a dark, dark red, it is almost black when seen in certain lighting conditions. These are seeds that I had pollinated on my own daylily stock of Bela Lugosi this summer of 2024 so they are super fresh. I pollinated each bloom with its own pollen, but of course, there might be cross pollination from bees flying from plants to plant. Therefore, you might have some happy surprises once your plants come into bloom. The last picture is of the daylilies that I have sprouted, and they will most likely bloom this summer, always an exciting event! The seeds are hefty and sprout easily. BE CAREFUL when you open the seed packs (inner and outer) as I have left openings for air circulation. 10-12 large 1/4" seeds will be sent via package rate mail generating a tracking number so you will be able to track your package as it travels to its destination. Because these are such large seeds, they must be sent in a padded envelope so they will reach you in excellent condition. I can ship ONLY to the lower 48 states and not internationally. Hawaii and Alaska have prohibitive agricultural laws preventing me from shipping to these states as well. You should have germination within 2-3 weeks. I also send detailed instructions on how to grow and care for your daylilies. All my seeds have been pre-chilled to mimic their having gone through a winter so they will be ready to sprout and grow. Please convo me with any questions, I’m always happy to help! Thanks for coming by and taking a proverbial stroll through my online store. Please come back often as I have plenty of fabulous items to list.

Jolanthe from Homeschool Creations created this fantastic interdisciplinary, multi-skill printable gardening unit that would be perfect for spring and learning about the Earth. Featuring twelve colorful activities, here are a few of the highlights {as always, you'll have to visit Jolanthe's site for the full scoop}! Photo Source: homeschoolcreations.com Scissor Skills. In this exercise, students help 'water the flowers' by cutting on the line in order to connect the watering can to the colorful blooms. Jolanthe provides two scissor skill worksheets that can be printed onto different weights of paper to provide exercise variations. For additional fine motor practice, you might also consider laminating a copy of each worksheet, or sliding them into a plastic document sleeve, and placing a copy in the writing center along with a dry erase marker or crayon to use for tracing. Along with building hand strength, coordination, and learning how to properly hold a writing tool, the activity also provides pre-writing practice. Photo Source: homeschoolcreations.com Writing Patterns. While similar to the activity extension above, this pattern writing worksheet offers much more complex pre-writing practice - helping students practice directional movement, apply proper hand position, recognize the difference between drawing and writing, etc. Print onto the back of recycled worksheets or laminate for use with dry erase crayons. Photo Source: homeschoolcreations.com Colors & Shapes in Bloom. This activity is great because it requires your students to practice several concepts/skills at once - shapes, colors, color word recognition, and shape word recognition. Cut the descriptions from the flowers, inviting students to match the pieces, or have your students paste the blooms into a booklet, highlighting the color words and circling the shape words {or both!}. Photo Source: homeschoolcreations.com Parts of a Flower. With this fun puzzle worksheet, students will learn new vocabulary words and about the basic parts of a plant. First, invite students to construct the flower, placing the cards in the correct order, then match the appropriate vocabulary words to each part. Once they've had exposure to the words, have them play memory/matching games with the flower and vocabulary cards. Photo Source: homeschoolcreations.com Story Sequencing. This activity goes along with the book, Jack's Garden, by Henry Cole. After reading the story, invite your students to take these story event strips and put them in the correct order. This can be done as a class, in small groups, or as an individual assignment. These are just a few of the incredible activities Jolanthe has in store for your kiddos in her gardening unit. Be sure to visit her blog for more information and for the free download! Happy Learning!
