Hi GPODers!<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s photos are from Jin, who is originally from Bangkok, Thailand. In 2021, she and her family made Iowa\u2019s USDA Zone 5b their home, and since then she has embraced the challenges and opportunities that the Midwestern climate offers. Enjoy the before and after of Jin\u2019s beautiful garden below. She was also kind enough to share photos of how the front and back gardens look across the seasons, which is always so illuminating to see. Jin says:<\/p>\n

I am relatively new to the gardening world, but I have dreamed of having a garden for as long as I can remember. I grew up in Bangkok, where space was limited and gardening meant growing plants in pots under intense heat and humidity. Most of my early attempts ended in failure\u2014but the desire to garden never left me. Today, I garden in Coralville, Iowa, in a climate that is completely different from Thailand. Here, we experience dramatic temperature swings, gusty winds, long winters that can dip to \u201332 degrees F, and hot, humid summers. I began gardening in 2021, shortly after my husband and I bought our first home in a neighborhood we love.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because we have a young child, my husband wanted an organic lawn; no pesticides and no herbicides. The result was a lawn filled with dandelions, crabgrass, and clover, happily shared with deer and rabbits. Eventually, he gave up fighting the dandelions and decided to turn part of the lawn into garden beds for me, knowing how much I love flowers and how long I had waited to garden. That decision reignited my enthusiasm for gardening.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
The garden after I realized the importance of foliage, not just flowers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I approached gardening like a student. Before planting anything, I spent nearly six months researching\u2014perhaps too much. Eventually, I realized that no amount of online searching could prepare me for every challenge. Gardening, I learned, requires trial, error, and observation. Some lessons can only be learned by experiencing them firsthand. I began by expanding the front garden, focusing mainly on flowers. Within the first month, I felt discouraged\u2014once the flowers finished blooming, the garden was left with only green space, and I realized that I should also focus more on foliage.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Now the front yard showcases a mix of plants with contrasting foliage textures.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
The garden bed Jin\u2019s husband created for her<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Over time, I learned that gardens here need plants with staggered bloom times\u2014spring, summer, and fall\u2014and that foliage is what truly lasts the longest. That understanding changed everything. Along the driveway, weeds flourished, so my husband created another garden bed, making the weeding in that area my responsibility.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n\"snow<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Through these early experiments, I discovered different methods of garden bed preparation and learned what worked best for me. After my first season, winter arrived\u2014long and stark. Snow covered everything, leaving a landscape of white and brown until spring returned. That experience showed me the importance of four-season interest. Conifers and evergreens quickly became essential elements in my garden.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
The backyard featuring Jin\u2019s favorite plants, Penstemon \u2018Pocahontas\u2019 and \u2018Onyx & Pearl\u2019\u2014long bloom time, burgundy foliage, striking red seed heads, and the ability to self-seed so she can replant without buying more.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I also realized that our dining and living rooms face the backyard, yet all we had to look at was grass. Why not enjoy the garden year-round, even from indoors? I wanted something to help me take a mental break from work while drinking warm coffee in winter or sitting down for dinner. That realization led me to plant dwarf conifers, evergreen shrubs, and plants with strong fall and winter interest, and to further expand the backyard garden.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
The backyard in fall, with hardy chrysanthemums, ninebark, and bright yellow amsonia foliage.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

My lot is less than a quarter of an acre\u2014including the house. But for a beginner, it has been more than enough. Every year, the garden changes. Some plants take over, others struggle or disappear. New ideas emerge, new plants are added, and new color themes take shape. The garden is never finished\u2014and that is part of its joy.<\/em><\/p>\n

Thanks so much to Jin for sharing her beautiful garden and her gardening journey with us. She also showcases her garden\u2019s ongoing transformation, as well as lessons learned, on her YouTube channel, @Tiny_Yard_Bouquets<\/a><\/p>\n

We\u2019ll definitely be watching, Jin!<\/p>\n
