Handmade Woodworking on Etsy - Cedar Windowsill Planter by ErdeDesigns

Description

This is a handmade wooden windowsill planter. It is made of Cedar and left unfinished so that the full Cedar aroma remains.

It would be perfect for herbs, cacti or small flowers. And would look right at home on a sunny kitchen windowsill.

5 Moonflower or Datura Plants for your Moon Garden Organically Grown by SmokymistGardens

First to recommend

Description

These are small starter plants, that have been potted up for at least 3 weeks now. They are approx. 3" tall now, and grow very quickly. I will ship these with a little soil still attached to make it an easier transition on the plant.

Daturas are not perennial plants, but they come back every year for me in my gardens by dropping multiple seeds. If you would prefer not to have them directly in your flower gardens, plant them in pots. They are a joy to see in the evening hours when they bloom. Wonderful for your moon garden. HUGE blooms.

Plants & Edibles on Etsy - Seed Keeper Saving Kit Wooden Box Tins and Muslin Bags by thesistersstudio

First to recommend

Description

A time honoured tradition, seed saving offers many benefits from saving money on expensive yearly seed bills to growing old-time favourites like the heirloom flowers and vegetables that your grandparents grew. Other important benefits include using seed from those plants that are best suited to your garden’s growing conditions and knowing that the seeds you grow haven’t been treated with any undesirable chemicals. It is also fun to share seeds from your garden with friends, family, neighbours, and of course other avid gardeners.

Your seed Saving Kit includes ten airtight, assorted (glass and metal) tins for storing seed, sixteen self sticking round brown labels, pencil, three muslin seed collection/storage bags, 4' hemp twine for tying collection/storage bags, five wooden stakes for marking collection plants, two fat wooden stakes, ten glassine seed envelopes with personal vellum labels for seed sharing, and seed drying guide that provides information on collecting, cleaning, drying and storing seeds.

Plants & Edibles on Etsy - Living Birdhouse by SucculentDesigns

First to recommend

Description

A green roof is a roof comprised of living vegatation. Also known as an eco-roof, they've been around for years, and are used not only to beautify, but to insulate buildings by reducing heating and cooling costs, reduce storm-water runoff, and increase wildlife habitat in built-up areas.

It's comprised of many of the same plants found on living roofs (succulents, of course!) The dimensions are 8"hx7"wx10"l (including base) and is made of solid redwood, which is water resistant and weathers beautifully over time. It requires little care, similar to the wreaths and topiaries, but will require more frequent watering due to the sloped roof. (via etsy.com)

Handmade Housewares on Etsy - SKELETAL SWALLOW w/ HORSESHOE Flower Pot by illustratedink

First to recommend

Description

This listing is for an original "Dia de los Muertos" flower pot, inspired by Mexican folk art and traditional tattoo design. This colorful pot is perfect for your favorite flower or lush plant!

It features a skeletal swallow swooping through a gold horseshoe. A red rose blooms to the side. I've added a black, dotted border to the top. It's green (inside and out), has been fully sealed for indoor/outdoor use, and is waterproof. It has a hole in the bottom for drainage, and comes with a small dish for catching excess water (ideal for keeping your plant inside, safe from the killer heat or Winter chill).

This original clay pot is a standard 6" tall x 6.5" at the widest point, has been hand painted in acrylics, and is signed on the bottom by the artist. (via etsy.com)
