It's gorgeous! <br/><br/>Is that a cardboard egg carton that you're using to plant your seeds? And if so, can that go right into the ground for planting? <br/><br/>The plants you listed for the moth garden - do you usually start those from seed or do you purchase a plant? <br/><br/>I've never even heard of a moon garden before, but now I'd really like to have one! Truth be told, I'm the world's worst gardener though. Do you have any suggestions for me?<br/><br/>And as always, love your pics! Okay, now I’m full of questions for you.

The plants you listed for the moth garden – do you usually start those from seed or do you purchase a plant?

I’ve never even heard of a moon garden before, but now I’d really like to have one! Truth be told, I’m the world’s worst gardener though. Do you have any suggestions for me?

And as always, love your pics!
