Tabbs’s Spring Garden in Pennsylvania

Spring garden pennsylvania: a concise orientation before we get practical.

Spring garden pennsylvania: Quick notes

Happy Monday GPODers!

Winter has really just begun, but today we’re already dreaming of spring. Many of us experienced some harsh winter weather this past weekend, so a dose of color is the perfect way to spread some cheer as we head toward the new year. Tabbs Hamid in Royersford, Pennsylvania has a small garden, but from winter days to its peak period of bloom, it is an endless source of beauty and joy.

I live in Royersford, Pa and have a small garden I’d like to show. I grow begonias, lilies, Limelight hydrangeas (Hydrangea paniculata ‘Limelight’, Zone 4–8) and geraniums each year.

Thanks, Tabbs

To begin, Tabbs is showing us that we need to appreciate the winter to truly enjoy the color and life of spring. Her snowy winter garden is a stunning backdrop to her beautifully decorated indoor space. I also love the incredible flower arrangement that brings a taste of peak season color to the winter months.

But this is the show that is always long awaited. Tabbs makes the most of her small space and fills every inch with vibrant pink blooms.

A gorgeous green backdrop of shrubs makes these pink blooms even more vibrant. A chartreuse ‘Sunshine’ ligustrum (Ligustrum sinense ‘Sunshine’, Zone 6–10) brings a pop of more vibrancy and ‘Limelight’ hydrangea contributes more flowers.

Another stunning shot of this small but mighty garden, with the sun pouring radiant light over the plants—particularly the glowing begonias in the foreground.

Lastly, Tabbs shows off the gorgeous pot she has used for a romantic, trailing tuberous begonias (Begonia tuberhybrida, Zone 9–11). Containers are gorgeous additions to any garden, but can be particularly impactful in a small space.

Thank you so much for sharing these gorgeous photos of your garden, Tabbs! This has been a fabulous introduction to your small but spectacular space.
