“That’s how you win.” “There you go, Ron.” “Way to go.”

From the second year onward, fertilize in early spring with a balanced 10-10-10 (NPK) fertilizer according to packet instructions.
Regular fertilization is especially important for plants grown in containers, as the roots are unable to spread in search of nutrients, and regular watering will flush them from the soil.
Learn more about how to fertilize your elderberry here.
In the winter, protect the roots from freezing temperatures by adding a two-inch layer of mulch to the top of the soil, and wrap the container in blankets or burlap.
Many types of elderberries grow best in Zones 3 to 8, all of which experience winter freezing.
Since container-grown plant roots are more exposed to the elements, they can use a little extra protection.
There are four species of elderberry that you’ll commonly find in container gardens:
For more choices, check out our favorite elderberry varieties. Here are a few cultivars suitable for growing in containers:
First introduced to the US from Europe in 2004 by Proven Winners, Black Beauty® is a cultivar of S. nigra.
It has lance-shaped, dark purple leaves and delicate pink blossoms with a sweet, floral-lemony fragrance.
Suitable for Zones 4 to 7, it grows in a compact form, with a mature height of six feet. Prune regularly after the third year to maintain a short, bushy shrub.
In the fall, dark berries appear – provided you’ve got another variety, such as Black Lace® (described below) nearby.
S. nigra Black Lace® is a real beauty, with delicate, dark reddish-purple lacy leaves and light pink blooms.
This cultivar is suited to gardens in Zones 4 to 7, and makes a perfect cross-pollinating companion for Black Beauty®.
S. nigra is often called the European elderberry. This particular cultivar was developed in England in the 1980s, and was introduced to the US market by Proven Winners.
If allowed to, it’ll top out at eight feet tall, but it responds well to pruning if you want to maintain a compact, bushy form.
The dark foliage, especially when contrasted with the delicate pink flowers in springtime, makes a bold statement on your patio or as a feature planting.
Glossy black berries will ripen in the fall, provided there is another variety with a similar bloom time and of the same species located close by for cross-pollination.
You can find 18- to 24-month-old plants in quart-sized or #3 containers at Nature Hills Nursery.
S. racemosa Lemony Lace® is a compact, dwarf cultivar that has bright yellow-green lacy foliage, and produces delicate white blooms in springtime.
With its more upright growth habit, Lemony Lace® is perfect for smaller spaces, with a mature height of just three to four feet tall.
The ornamental red berries are not edible, but will provide a source of autumn sustenance for local songbirds.
Suitable for growers in Zones 3 to 7, you can find plants available in #2 or #3 containers at Nature Hills Nursery.
Tapiro is the common name of the Mexican species, S. mexicana. It is native to western North America, from Oregon through Mexico.
It has green foliage, and delicate yellow or cream-colored flowers give way to clusters of light purple or blue berries in the fall.

I’ve been researching and using tallow more in recent years, and it turns out so have many of you. My whipped tallow balm is a fan favorite because it feels so silky on skin. One of the questions I get asked most often though is how to add honey to the recipe. This honey tallow balm does just that.
I’ve also added other ingredients that are great for clearing up skin and diminishing blemishes.
When it comes to skincare, I’ve found that sometimes the simplest ingredients are the most effective. While there are countless products designed to target blemishes and support clearer skin, many of them can be harsh, drying, or filled with ingredients I’d rather not use. Traditional ingredients that have been used for generations though are worth reaching for.
This honey tallow balm combines several skin-loving ingredients into one simple formula. It nourishes the skin barrier while also supporting a clearer complexion. Instead of stripping skin or trying to force it into compliance, this balm focuses on giving skin what it needs. Tallow honey balm not only moisturizes, but gives skin beneficial compounds so it can function as designed.
One of the star ingredients in this balm is grass-fed beef tallow. Tallow has a unique fatty acid profile that closely resembles the natural oils in our skin. This means it sinks right into skin and helps restore our natural moisture barrier.
Another favorite ingredient that has a long history in natural skincare. Honey is rich in beneficial compounds that keep skin looking healthy and smooth. It also acts as a humectant, attracting and retaining moisture. This is especially helpful for skin that feels irritated, dry, or out of balance. I also love raw honey for acne and blemishes since it’s naturally antimicrobial.
Beeswax helps to thicken the balm and creates a breathable protective layer on the skin. Some creams use petroleum jelly as an occlusive to trap moisture. These don’t feed skin though and can feel heavy or greasy. Rather than sealing the skin completely, beeswax helps lock in moisture while still allowing the skin to breathe.
In my classic tallow balm recipe I use olive oil as the carrier oil. It’s full of healthy fats and anti-inflammatory Omega-3s. In this version though I opted for tamanu oil.
Skincare experts note how tamanu helps support skin healing and recovery. It’s often used in products for improving the appearance of blemished and damaged skin. Research shows it can help reduce redness and inflammation while improving marks left from acne damage. It’s one of my favorite oils to use in skincare for damaged or blemish-prone skin.
These are optional, but really helpful to add more skin benefits. Plus they can add a nice scent. I like using tea tree essential oil for blemish or acne prone skin. It’s an effective but gentle anti-fungal and is well known for it’s skin cleansing properties.
Sweet or wild orange is another favorite. It has a bright, uplifting scent and can also help improve skin’s appearance. Lavender, geranium, frankincense, and cedarwood are also great skin-friendly options.
Anything that can address several skincare concerns at once is a win in my book. Instead of focusing solely on blemishes, honey tallow balm supports overall skin health.
Many people unknowingly damage their skin barrier through over-cleansing, harsh treatments, or excessive exfoliation. When the skin barrier becomes compromised, it can sometimes lead to more irritation, dryness, and breakouts. Ingredients like tallow, honey, and tamanu oil help nourish and support the skin while maintaining moisture balance.
This balm can help soothe redness, boost healing from blemishes, and keep skin feeling soft and moisturized. Because it contains nutrient-rich fats, it’s also useful for skin that feels rough, dry, or irritated. Overall, honey tallow balm helps the skin to balance out.
A little goes a long way with this balm. I like to apply a small amount to clean skin and rub a thin layer over my face. If you’re using it as part of your skincare routine, then do it after cleansing and toning. Your body heat softens the balm so it easily glides over skin.
I use this on my face to moisturize or other areas that need a little extra love. You can also use it as a spot treatment for blemishes and red skin. If your skin feels greasy or looks oily afterwards, then you used too much!
I explain how to render tallow so you don’t smell like a walking hamburger here. I also cover a lot of tallow balm making questions and tips in that post. Be sure to check it out for more info.
This simple honey tallow balm uses clean ingredients for a nourishing and hydrating lotion. Helps skin feel smoother and reduces blemishes.
Yield: 5 ounces
Add tallow and beeswax to the top of a double boiler and melt over low heat.
Once it’s completely liquid add the tamanu or other carrier oil, essential oils, and honey and stir.
Pour the tallow balm into a mixing bowl and let it cool in the fridge until it’s hardened some, but not rock hard.
Use a mixer to cream the tallow balm until it’s smoothed and whipped looking.
Transfer the tallow balm into glass jars to store.
Healthy skincare often comes down to the simple things and clean ingredients. Supporting the skin barrier and using quality ingredients goes a long way toward helping skin look and feel its best.
This honey tallow balm is one of those simple recipes that combines traditional ingredients with modern skincare insights. It’s easy to make, uses just a handful of ingredients, and can be a great addition to a natural skincare routine for anyone looking to support clearer, healthier-looking skin.
It’s clean, easy, and has earned a permanent spot on my countertop.

Happy Friday GPODers!
When we celebrate our gardens we’re not only praising the plants we have cultivated, but also the time and energy we spent creating the outdoor spaces that bring us joy. For Carol Gibson in Quarryville, Pennsylvania (Zone 7a) the past 20 years have been spent creating a landscape of her favorite plants from the completely blank slate that she began with. She has acquired a beautiful array of plants that are interesting and inspiring, but it is the vision she had and the love she put into the landscape that makes it special.
My home was purchased in 2005, having a totally clean slate. Most of the gardens surround my house, affording privacy. The style is predominantly a free-flowing cottage garden, filled with my favorite trees, shrubs and perennials. Mother Nature, quite clearly, rules my gardens!
The lupines put out a show starting in May, along with the weigela shrubs, in an upper bed where there once was a fence line filled with scrub trees and poison ivy!
Wildflower seeds cast 3 years ago have created this prolific sea of sweet William (Dianthus barbatus, Zones 3–9), so many colors and a lovely scent!
Behold the fringe tree (Chionanthus virginicus, Zones 3–9) accompanied by a happy weigela.
This bed was created in memory of my parents. It is filled with hellebores, a young photinia, several sizes of Hinoki cypress (my favorite evergreen), a red-tipped Japanese pieris (Pieris japonica, Zones 4–8) and too many perennials to list all of them!
A view of the bed in front of my house. Notice the silvery leaves on the evening primrose (Oenothera biennis, Zones 3–9). The bee balm is surrounded by purple coneflowers (Echinacea purpurea, Zones 3–9) and yellow loosestrife (Lysimachia vulgaris, Zones 4–8). The invasive plants may make you cringe, but I keep them in check and have very few weeds!
I love this holly fern (Cyrtomium falcatum, Zones 7–10) in a bed of lush green foliage.
This bed has gone through several revisions, but now has a star magnolia (Magnolia stellata, Zones 4–8), ninebark shrub (Physocarpus opulifolius, Zones 2–8), turtleheads, ‘Silver Mound’ artemisia (Artemisia schmidtiana ‘Silver Mound’, Zones 3–9), salvias and a very cool ‘Little Redhead’ Indian pink (Spigelia marilandica ‘Little Redhead’, Zones 5–9)!
The heuchera in this bed were removed from an arrangement in a funeral home outside urn 10 years ago! (Much happier here, ha!) There will be magnificent color when the lilies bloom this summer. You can partially see an easy care ‘Soft Touch’ holly (Ilex crenata ‘Soft Touch’, Zones 5–9) on the right side of photo.
The ‘Major Wheeler’ honeysuckle (Lonicera sempervirens ‘Major Wheeler’, Zones 4–8) will attract hummingbirds if my dog stays away long enough!
Final view of the upper bed, created by first planting the evergreens, then the shrubs, and lastly, casting wildflower seeds into several central areas.
Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful garden with us, Carol! With so many stunning vignettes and mature plants it is hard to even imagine this space as the blank slate you started with.
How did your garden’s journey begin and how has your vision for your landscape changed since then?

I refuse to pull dandelions from my yard during the first bloom. I don’t even let my husband mow.
Those cheerful drops of sunshine are not only pretty, but as a beekeeper, I know they are a good food source for pollinators during the gaps between blooms of other essential spring plants.
And when the white fluff emerges, my yard fills with ecstatic little birds gobbling up the seeds.
We link to vendors to help you find relevant products. If you buy from one of our links, we may earn a commission.
Not only are dandelions good sources of food for birds and bees, but most of the plant is edible for humans too.
Yes, you could just go forage wild dandelions from your yard instead of growing them intentionally, but you shouldn’t forage from other people’s yards or roadsides.
Many gardeners hate dandelions, so you don’t know what they’ve been sprayed with (or whose dog peed on them).
Plus, frequently mowed dandelion greens can be too bitter to make a yummy addition to your salad.
So why not grow them? They’re healthy, easy, and as you’ll find out below, you don’t even need a yard or garden to have fresh dandelion greens handy.
Keep reading to find out everything you need to know about growing my favorite weed, the cheery dandelion!
It’s a loathed weed now, but this central Asia native was initially imported to America as a food crop.
And, obviously, it did very well.
You can find T. officinale, a member of the aster or Asteraceae family, in Europe, North America, southern Africa, South America, New Zealand, Australia, India…
Its success is no wonder.
Not only does each plant produce an average of 5,000 wind-borne seeds, these perennials are hardy in Zones 3 to 10, they survive from the lowlands to over 8,000 feet in elevation, tolerate wet and compact soils, poor and dry soil, and are generally pest and disease free.
Their biggest enemies are bunnies and humans.
The sight of a dandelion carpet might cause a spike in the blood pressure of some lawn owners, but they are a healthy food.
