🌸 Oasis Plant Tip of the Day – May 8, 2026
If you haven’t decided what you’re planting yet—this is your moment to sit down and map it out clearly. 🌿
Before anything goes into the ground as its too cold yet, take a few minutes and write your list of plants. Not just what you like—but what you actually want growing in your space this season.
Start breaking it down into simple groups:
• Edible plants – vegetables, herbs, anything you want to harvest
• Ornamental plants – flowers, fillers, visual interest
• Shrubs – structure, privacy, long-term placement
• Nursery trees (potted) – future growth, shade, anchors in your space
Then take it one step further and ask:
• Which of these will need support? (stakes, cages, trellis)
• Which can be direct sown vs brought in as plants?
• Which are better suited for containers vs in-ground?
This step saves you from overbuying, overcrowding, and planting things in the wrong place later on. It turns ideas into a plan you can actually follow.
You don’t need it perfect—you just need it started!
If you’d like help building your plant list, sourcing what you need, or making sure everything fits your space properly, I offer plant sourcing, Green Space Planning, and garden companionship sessions to work through it with you!
🌿 Book a session and let’s turn your ideas into a space that actually works and grows with you!
