We cookout a lot. So I had a set of wrought iron Marshmallow Toasting Forks made by a local blacksmith. My Grandkids and Great-Grandkids will be toasting marshmallows with these babies! But we get to enjoy them first 🍡3yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/BuyItForLife
Winter of 2011 I found out I was pregnant and I planted an acorn. The following year I got a baby girl and her oak tree. For the first time the leafy one has overtaken the leggy one ❤️6yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/marijuanaenthusiasts
This may not look impressive to most. But it's taken me 10 years of attempts to grow this outside, in Scotland! It's flawless 😍7yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/gardening

We planted 7,000 trees in a swamp. Through sunburn and snow and days when it was raining so hard water was running down our noses. Today we passed our Forestry Commission inspection. We officially own a forest and it was all worth it ❤️🌳6yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/marijuanaenthusiasts
Going for zero-waste gold this year. Have just rounded up every old pot I own and washed and disinfected them. This year I’m not buying plants but growing completely from seed in my recycled pots. We are scrubbed and ready to grow 🌱🌱5yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/gardening

From little acorns... Hello baby oak tree! Tree one of 5,800 that my Dad and I are planting on my land. 6.9 acres of new woodland. Very excited to watch them grow ❤️🌳6yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/marijuanaenthusiasts
Posted last year. My husband always rolls his eyes at my hoarding. But who’s laughing now! 😍3yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/Canning
After lots of trial and error I feel like I've finally cracked composting this year. These are two bays of four. It's still a bit twiggy. But I feel like we're almost there!7yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/homestead

After 4 years of stratification and trial and error, this is the highlight of my Spring garden. Meconopsis Betonicifolia. Look at that blue!7yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/gardening

40 days to go and my dress is coming together! The bodice is Suzanne Neville, the skirt I have made myself after failing to find something floral. It’s very much still held together with pins, but I’m getting there 😍 Jury is still out on the ribbon waistband??6yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/weddingplanning
The UK is super hard to get thrifted cast iron in. So I was over the moon with two of these and a smaller one for £11! Made an epic stir-fry for dinner. If anyone knows anything about them, I’d love to hear it.4yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/castiron
Following on from the amazing poster who finally grew grapes in Sweden, I got all excited and texted my Dad to see if we’d got any in our garden in Scotland. (In the military, he looks after the place for us) This was his reply. The challenge continues 😂5yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/gardening
This made me chuckle. I wonder if they do Magical Unicorn seeds, too? No wonder their feedback is shoddy!7yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/gardening
Checking how the logging operations are doing, on the hunt for bugs and slugs for a tasty snack! I never realised how helpful it would be to keep chickens. They haven’t laid an egg yet (I realise the ones in the picture are roosters 😉 I do have hens too!) and are more than earning their keep! ❤️7yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/chickens
I love a new gardening book! Just bought Peter Seabrook's Complete Vegetable Gatdener in a thrift store and I'm thinking Man, I wish that was how much seeds cost!8yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/gardening
Snow on the ground, outside, here in Scotland. But these just arrived, reminding me that Spring is on it's way!7yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/gardening
Found this in a friends garden, her husband had thrown it out because it was too hard to clean! It’s been out there for “at least a year or two” and now it’s mine...for free 😍 How do I bring it back to awesome. It’s in pretty great shape considering the length of time it’s been out there.6yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/castiron
I peaceful, snowy, Scottish winters day. I love it when there's nothing to do but wander about and appreciate how lucky I am to call this beautiful place home and plan for the coming months ❤7yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/homestead
Expecting the first frost, any day. I finally got my first tomato! Off 24 plants. It has not been a good year, to grow tomatoes, in Scotland.8yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/gardening

Bought my 6 year old a “Paint-your-own birdhouse”. An hour later, she has produced this; “Birdies all have nests, so they don’t need houses. But they don’t have anywhere to have their birthday parties”. I give you, The Birdie Birthday Hut (it’s even glittery!). I flipping love this kid!6yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/gardening
[Aberdeen, Scotland] [Outdoor] Smells strongly when crushed. It's been there for about 7 years and is only a foot high. Some kind of herb? Thank you :)6yr ⋅ Vixxihibiscus ⋅ r/whatsthisplant
