This house warming gift was a succes! A tiny catfriendly garden for @super_cooper_the_cat . Though it remains to be seen if his gardening skills are very plant friendly 😸💚

Ooievaarsbek, Geranium, Cranesbill.
They come in different colours and shapes and i love them! They are slightly excentric, very strong, can survive a dutch winter. Plus, just look at that flower...need i say more?

Another before & after
This time a plantbox that is part of a beautiful 1930s home. A small job can make a huge difference!

One of the things i can help you with it repotting your plants. If you just do not know where to start of find it scary, no worries. I can show you how or just get my hands dirty while you get on with things.
Did you know that getting the water level in small pots right is trickier than for pots that are a bit bigger? This client had lot of smaller plants, so to help with the right water level (not soaking wet, no complete drought) i mixed vermiculite throug the soil. And also important with pots that do not have drainage, clay pebbles.
Need a hand? Let me know!

I love seeing plants and projects grow.
Since the start of restaurant 4850 i have taken care of the plants inside and creating the terrace outside. We started out with a tiny budget, so the choices were guided by that. So i found fruit crates, that i made into planters. Painted the benches we inherrited from the previous owners.
Every year i learn what works from a plant point of view, what works for the team having to work the terrace.
We have had plants stolen, whole pots or just a plant dug out of the soil. We have had a few lock downs where we could not invite guests onto our terrace but still made it look nice and inviting.
I have grown plants from seed, like Tagetes and Nasturtium, that have ended up on the plates of guests. And fighting snails eating just those plants!
This year i have been replacing some of the fruit crates that have been falling apart. I found wood that would have been burnt in a fire place. My handy carpenter dad helped me out. Together made new plantboxes for 4850. Ready for the summer of 2022.
I love how the neighbourhood comments on the terrace, a little oasis in a very urban neighbourhood. Especially since we got permission to use the parking space infront of the restaurant as a terrace. Let's hope we get to keep making our corner inviting and green!

i love plants!
How they will tell you where the want to grow, if they are happy with how you potted them, wether they like the amount of sun they are getting.
This little guy decided to just pop up on the side of a plantbox, and i am letting him stay.

There is challenge in revamping a balcony that already has a history and there is a challenge in starting with a blanc slate.
This balcony had a few plant boxes on the railling but some bigger green was needed!
I love mixing these pots from the same material but in different sizes and shapes to make a playfull corner.
With the weather this nice and if they are given enough water (every night with temperatures like these) These plants will become a flowering jungle!

At the end of the day, if the weather is even a little bit kind, i love to unwind on my balcony. I am lucky that the garden in my block is quite peaceful (by Amsterdam measures)
One issue, if i even get up for a minute, there is always a cat ready to steal my spot on the sofa.
