We owe a heartfelt apology to our tiny feathered friends! We failed to acknowledge World Hummingbird Day yesterday. To make amends, we’re dropping some insider knowledge on hummingbird-approved, nectar-rich native plant options that we stock at Dragonfly. All of our natives are grown locally and sustainably by our friends at Sunset Farmstead without the use of insecticides or fungicides. These plants are great options to help our local hummingbirds prepare for their long and arduous fall migration.

Ruby-throated hummingbirds’ southern migration from NJ peaks this month, heading to their wintering grounds in Mexico and Central America. This impressive journey includes a non-stop flight straight across the Gulf of Mexico. That’s up to 600 miles of open water, taking roughly 18-22 hours to cross in a single flight! Before embarking on this dangerous adventure, the birds undergo a remarkable transformation, doubling their body fat through a period of intense feeding known as ‘hyperphagia’. This fat reserve provides the necessary energy and endurance to fuel their incredible migration.

Here are our picks:

“I make a point to appreciate all the little things in my life. I go out and smell the air after a good, hard rain. I re-read passages from my favorite books. I hold the little treasures that somebody special gave me. These small actions help remind me that there are so many great, glorious pieces of good in the world.”
-Dolly Parton

🥕Carrot Update🥕: Looks like we’ve grown more of a conglomeration than a crop. Today’s lesson is that you really do need to thin them out to avoid overcrowding. Isn’t gardening fun? 🙃

Small victories are still victories! 👩🏽‍🌾 We all know that what is shared on social media are carefully curated images of amazing accomplishments with perfect lighting. As plant people, we know (more than most) that this is not reality. When we’re learning what works best for our environment and lifestyle, there are often more failures than successes. That’s why we often say that plant care is just one big science experiment. No one really has it all “figured out,” and that’s what keeps it fun and exciting. Every season presents an opportunity to try something new, laugh about what didn’t work, and celebrate the things that somehow did.

So we want to know, what’s your proudest gardening accomplishment this season? We’d love to hear about your biggest win or lesson learned in the comments. (bonus points for sharing pictures as visual aids)
We’ll go first…

This season, we harvested the very first carrot from our vegetable garden. Carrots are not necessarily hard to grow, but they can be tricky and require specific conditions that we have been unable to provide consistently in the past. In previous years, all our attempts at growing them have failed. Even though this one is tiny and not particularly impressive by most standards, we are pretty darn proud of it. 🥕

An honorable mention goes to this honeydew melon. Melons are extremely susceptible to fungal issues, especially during particularly humid and rainy summers. Last year, we had thriving vines of watermelons, cantaloupes, and honeydew and then lost the entire crop to powdery mildew. It was a difficult loss, especially since some were very close to being ripe and ready to harvest. Learning from our previous failure, this year we spaced the plants wider for more airflow and pruned bad leaves more aggressively, especially after periods of heavy rain. It remains to be seen whether or not we will actually get to eat this one, but we remain optimistic. 🍈
