Welcome to a quick walk through the flower-filled alley of my terrace garden! I call it an "alley" because there’s a narrow path running between rows of buckets, grow bags, and containers on both sides — making it a cozy, plant-packed zone in my rooftop garden. In earlier years, my focus was mostly on growing vegetables, and flowers were just a nice-to-have. But over the past couple of years, I’ve intentionally started planting more flowers alongside the veggies — and the results have been beautiful and beneficial. 🌼 Why I Include Flowers Now: • They brighten up the garden, especially when vegetables are still growing. • Flowers bloom early and keep the space lively. • Most importantly, they attract pollinators like bees, which help with vegetable production. • Flowers like Cosmos also bring in beneficial insects like ladybugs, which help keep pests like aphids under control. This small change has added both color and purpose to my terrace garden — making it more biodiverse, pollinator-friendly, and visually uplifting. #terracegardenflowers #growflowerswithvegetables #vegetablesandflowers Get a pack of different flower seeds for your garden - Seeds for Planting Flowers: 8 Bulk Variety Packets Zinnia, Nasturtium, Marigold, Purple Coneflower, Cosmos, Calendula, Bachelor's Button & Sunflower Seeds - https://amzn.to/43wJejt #ad, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWmDsvBD3fg
