Plants love the sunshine too.

A year has fluttered by since we made the leap to the enchanting isle of Tassie, and what an adventure it’s been! We figured it was time to plant the seeds of our new chapter—literally. After all, if you’re going to set down roots (and we’re not just talking metaphorically), it’s never too early to start planting. It took nearly a whole year, but our leafy friends finally decided to show their gratitude with a burst of spring and summer cheer. Their lovely foliage and cheerful blooms are like a welcome party, complete with buzzing bees and dainty little birds who’ve come to join the celebration.

The view? Absolutely breathtaking. The smell? Divine. And the plants, still in their youth, are like eager little apprentices just waiting for the day they grow into their full glory. We can’t wait for the rest of our leafy ensemble—trees, shrubs, the whole gang—to catch up and complete the grand vision we have just beyond our front door. Every morning, as we sip our cups of coffee, we can imagine what this garden will become: a magical little slice of nature we get to enjoy with a smile and a sip.
