A Slow Morning in the Garden: Tomato Pruning, Watering, and Backyard Bouquet

There’s something grounding about spending a quiet morning in the garden. My hands in the soil, the sound of water on leaves, and the simple joy of tending to what’s growing.

In today’s garden vlog, I focused on a few small but satisfying tasks:
🌿 Watering the plants
🍅 Pruning the suckers off of the tomato vines
💐 Cutting backyard flowers to make a cheerful arrangement

One of the highlights was creating a birthday bouquet for my cousin using blooms from our own garden. It felt extra special to handpick each flower and build something beautiful with what’s in season. No store runs needed, just fresh air, quiet moments, and creativity.

If you enjoy the calming side of gardening, I hope this video brings a sense of peace to your day. Whether you're learning to care for tomato plants or just want to unwind with some soft sounds and gentle visuals, this is for you.
