🌹🌹 Mr. Algo of Insta has a truly remarkable talent… making sure the post I’m most excited about reaches approximately three people and one very supportive pigeon. 😂If this little cosmos has managed to find you, could you please do me the biggest favour? 💖Press all the buttons!! 😂🌸 Give it a little love🌸 Share it to your stories if it made you smile and make a fellow gardener follow this account 🌸 And if you’ve been enjoying following my little garden adventures, I’d absolutely love to have you here. We’re on a tiny mission to grow this little corner of Instagram to atleast 12k before I share something very exciting… 🤭🌿Ooh before that.. This little hummingbird hawk moth visited my garden yesterday .. Was thrilled to bits when I took this picture 📸 💖This little Gazania was a rescue find at the garden centre .. a 6 pack for £1.50 🥰 I didn’t think they would thrive but they did!! 🥹Love a good bargain!! DA’s Olivia sending out her last blooms of the first flush.. or is it first of the next??? 🧐Look at this self seeded hollyhock .. seeded by my “self” 🤣This part of the garden 😘.. the butterfly is a paid actor 🦋DA’s Lady Emma Hamilton that was sold again by DA this year after being discontinued for a while.. But this one looks very different to the one I had in 2020. Those had more bronze coloured leaves.Some tiny pots of Diascia - an annual but they are very cute and with Hebe, it was an unexpected combination that works 💖🥹A random spot spotted on my walk .. love how the sunshine plays hide and seek! ☀️💖 And regarding the something exciting bit.. While insta keeps ignoring my posts ..I’ve also been quietly growing something else .. 🙈👀🤫 Coming soon.💖Take your guesses!! Wrong answers totally welcome! 🤣 And every follow makes a difference before I announce!! 📣 Thank you!!

🌿 Meet Verna. 😎🌱For the past two years, while you’ve watched my garden bloom, I’ve been quietly growing something else too.🥰🌸Verna was born from a simple idea… that gardening deserves a place that’s just as beautiful as the gardens we create. 🥹🥲 Building it has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. It grew through health challenges, setbacks, sleepless nights, endless bug fixes, self-doubt, and more resilience than I ever knew I had.🙈 We don’t have a massive corporate budget for hiring influencers who charge £5k per reel either!!! It’s just us, connecting with our community one-to-one, and keeping this entire journey organic. 🥹🌱But just like a garden…Some dreams simply take a little longer to bloom.🌸💖Today, I’m so proud to finally share Verna with you. It is officially LIVE on the App Store! And because we wanted it to work seamless for the launch week, our first major update (V2) just got approved by Apple literally minutes ago. 🤣If you want to support an independent creator and level up your plant game, tap the link in our bio to download Verna today! Let’s grow together. 🚀 I hope you’ll love it as much as I’ve loved growing it. 🌸🤍📲 Link in bio. You can also search “Growhut’s Verna” in the App Store.

☕️🫖🌱 A quick list of plants and herbs to create a small backyard tea garden 🪴 Honestly speaking, when I was creating a little vertical herb tower inside the green house, the first thing that came to my mind was creating a tiny space for herbs to flavour drinks and a healing tea garden 🪴 . During the lockdown last year, we, as a family spent most of our time in the garden ..with idyllic spring evenings spent on the garden swing sipping mint and chamomile tea with honey from the garden. 🪴 Today, I remembered about this list I had made few weeks ago when I saw a discussion in comments about herbal teas under someone’s mint post . So that inspired me to share the list and thought sharing this would inspire few to create their own little tea garden corner 😍 I’m sure there are many more but this one is just a basic guide 🌿 Do you love herbal teas? Do you have a Tea herb garden? ☕️🫖🍵🌱What 🌿 herbs do you like with your drink? Feel free to share / save the post but please mention the credits. Have a happy evening 🌱🌿🍻🥂🍾☕️🫖A word of caution : Certain teas can have detrimental effects to health such as allergies, increased immune response, laxative and diuretic effects etc So please consult a health practitioner before you decide to add herbal teas to your diet 🌸 by @growhut

💐 Our Chennai Garden with Mum’s favourites 🌸 The first pic is of Gorgeous white Jasminum sambac with its intense heady fragrance filling the air..🧡Crossandra - You might also hear it referred to by its English common name, the Firecracker Flower. Because it is native to the Indian subcontinent, these names are deeply tied to traditional uses like making vibrant hair garlands. In Tamil, they’re called “Kanakambaram” meaning “golden rays of light”🧡🧡Orange flowers reach their absolute peak of visual beauty in India because they are woven into the vibrant fabric of daily life, celebration, and spirituality.🧡 These are usually picked and made into strings and garlands to decorate our hair. The contrast of shiny plaited black hair and orange flowers in between is quite striking and is often compared to slithering snake 🐍 Mum’s favourite Oranges 🍊 Another view of the same 🧡🍊🥭🍈Papayas from the garden 🪏 Another view 🥭 More garden updates to follow!#chennaidiaries #tropicalgarden #chennai #growhut #gardenloversofinstagram by @growhut

🌹Monday morning flowers 🌅 A happy little bright green lacewing on a very pretty velvety crimson DA’s “Munstead wood” rose 🌹 #featuremyrose @david_austin_roses 🌹The most breathtaking colour combinations are often the ones nature creates by chance, and no photo ever quite does them justice. ✨😍DA’s “Jude the obscure” - One of my firm favourites 🌹 Its outstanding fragrance is extremely strong with a delicious fruity note reminiscent of guava and sweet white wine. Reminds me of my childhood days!! 🥰As much as it looks beautiful, this is now under treatment for Vine weevil as I found 2 adult ones in their pots! Might as well repot them🤔Acer “Shirazz” - Hope this one survives the hose pipe ban!! She is too dramatic even on normal days! 😘Echinops 💙 Like delicious little blue lollipops… 🍭💙 So tempting!😱Did you know they’re edible?That said… just because you can, doesn’t mean I will. 😂I don’t even fully trust the tomatoes I’ve grown myself.🤷🏻‍♀️🍅DA’s Boscobel - Most favourite rose colourwise! This time the flowers were smaller and then I found a root stalk sucker a metre away!! 🤔🤪DA’s Summer Song… 🌹🎶It’s giving “unplugged” today. I suspect the heatwave has left it with a dry throat and very little interest in encores. 😂☀️I blame the heatwave. Rose “Hot chocolate” - A very unique coloured red rose from Peter Beales @peterbealesroses . From bud to bloom.A close up of the same!! Isn’t she pretty?? A unique blend of vivid burnt orange red to russet brown petals . 🌹 Has a strong nostalgic old rose fragrance. The rebel hibiscus blooms! She is supposed to have red in the middle but look at her.. all pale!! 😂The next one is even more rebellious , she has painted herself red on one of her petals !! 😂Letting go can be beautiful too.. A spent flower of hollyhock gently resting on a rusty leaf.. Another letting go.. geranium “striatum Akaton” petal on a spent Cosmos “Dazzler” 🌸 Happy Monday 🌸💖Follow @growhut for more 🌷💐#inthegardentoday #gardenersofinstagram #englishgarden #growhut Fresh Fragrant nofilter📷 growyourown grownnotflown bhfyp gardenersofinstagram growhut growhutgarden rose lover summergarden July garden by @growhut

🌸 Sanguisorba “Lilac squirrel” starting to bloom.. 💖..…Long.. fluffy and gloriously hanging 😜🌸Very pettablish.. 🤣 “Pettablish” should be a legitimate word tbh!!! 😆😇 No further explanation needed.. Proof that this is a perfectly acceptable life choice. 🤪👍🏼A ruddy darter resting over the fence..😍 Complaining about the heatwave probably??💖💖Rose “Bordure Camaieu”🌹 This one is a prolific cute container rose. This one has multicoloured blooms.. Bright yellow/orange buds, opening to pink & apricot flowers and burnt orange blooms fading to beautiful pink. Ideal to make a tiny corsage or to decorate the braid 😍💖DA’s ‘Elizabeth “ .. what a little perfect bloom🌸🌹The miniature rose that has very unique shaped petals 💖 This was the prettiest bloom today! This one decided to flourish and glow the heck up!!! 🤣💖🌸 So much joy! A self seeded cornflower smirking from the shade at his fellow mates in the sunny flower bed !! 💖🌸This beauty 🌸💖Oh .. He is definitely a lordbird.. the way he has smooshed his face into that butterfly bush !! 🤣🍎June drop.. except it didn’t drop so I have to shake the trees like a maniac for them to drop 🤣🤣🤣Peach sky!! 🌌 A silent Moment of presence and gratitude after a very stressful week. 🌱 Right to the update : I’m incredibly relieved after the release of Verna App. The analytics show a very strong start and a higher conversion rate!! 😍💖 Had to wait for two days for the analytics to show up. It had a plot twist I wasn’t expecting. Thank you, US and Europe for all the love , support, downloads and higher conversion rates ! 🥰🌍 I thought my best supporters would be closest geographically. Thankfully, the internet has no borders… and neither does encouragement. 💖🐞🤪 Also there was this few weeks delay because of a mistake on Apple’s side releasing the app so they’ve apologised and said they will do their best to support the release 💖 Whoop whoop!!! 🙌🏼 Let’s hope they comeback with a better news!! Onwards and upwards.. 👆🏼 💖Follow @growhut for more 🌷💐 #summergarden #julygarden #sanguisorba #applaunch #growhut Fresh Fragrant nofilter📷 growyourown grownnotflown bhfyp gardenersofi by @growhut

🐦It’s been a while I posted any birdwatching reels.. that doesn’t mean it didn’t happen .. it happened and I let it happen .. so here’s the proof 😂 🐦🤪I might’ve forgotten to share this side quest of watching a red kite flying by this week. Distracted by endless side quests lately that seem to appear out of nowhere! 🤷🏻‍♀️The mission was : To water the roses.🌹🙈 Instead, I 🐦Watched a red kite.🦋Followed a butterfly.🐝Photographed a bee.🤔Forgot why I came outside.Anyway… here’s the red kite. 🦅😂🌹🐦 Happy Tuesday 🐦💖Follow @growhut for more 🌷💐#redkite #birdsoﬁnstagram #birdofprey #gardenersofinstagram #growhut Fresh Fragrant nofilter📷 growyourown grownnotflown bhfyp gardenersofinstagram growhut growhutgarden birdwatching birdwatcher ornithology red kites bird of prey summergarden ﬂowersoﬁnstagram flowerphotography pollinatorgarden gardeninguk gardenersworld urbangarden homegrown flowersfromthegarden gardenflowers gardenersofig gardengram instagardener gardens_illustrated smallmagicalgardens blossomwatchcomp gardengram by @growhut
