Garden flags are fun to collect and display. With that said, how do you organize and store them when they’re not in use? Well, you put them in a handy Garden Flags Hanging Storage Organizer which will keep them organized and protects them from damage.

Decorative Garden Flags Hanging Storage Organizer

We own two of the ones that we’re featuring today and both were purchased from Amazon. It’s a double-sided storage organizer with larger sized pockets on one side and smaller sized pockets on the other. We store our large house flags in the larger pockets and the smaller garden flags in the smaller ones. It keeps everything neat and tidy.

If you’re like my wife…you can print up little descriptive labels and place them on the outside of each pocket to identify the flag that’s inside. This way you won’t have to remove them to find the ones that you’re looking for. We have several designs for each season and holiday throughout the year and all fit nicely into the organizer.

As an added bonus it’s extremely well-made and slim in it’s design. Once hung up it doesn’t take up a lot of space. You can hang it on a hook on the back of a closet door or hang it up on a closet rod. It maximizes the use of vertical storage space within your home.

Miracle-Gro Water Soluble Plant Food for Vegetables and Herbs

Miracle-Gro Water Soluble Plant Food for Vegetables and Herbs

Miracle-Gro Water Soluble Plant Food for Vegetables and HerbsFor the past 10 years my wife and I have been planting 2 medium-sized vegetable gardens in our backyard. We’re not expert gardeners, but learning as we go. Each season we learn something new and we really enjoy it. It’s a lot of hard work, but a great stress reliever. Besides, we love providing food for our family.

We’re planning out our garden for the summer 2023 season and one thing that we’ll definitely be using again this year is the Miracle-Gro Water Soluble Plant Food for Vegetables & Herbs. We purchased it last year and used it through the entire summer season. Did it make a difference? Yes it did!

Cucumbers

For example…check out the size of the cucumbers shown in my photograph. We had cucumber plants in both of our plots. One plot was treated with the Miracle-Gro and one without. I think you can see with your own eyes the difference in sizes of the cucumbers! Amazing! Not only were the plants and fruits/veggies larger with the treatment…but they produced twice as many too!

The plot that was treated did 100% better than the plot that wasn’t. With the plant food the plants matured quicker, were healthier looking, produced more fruits/vegetables, and their sizes were incredibly larger too! A win-win for this backyard gardener!

Instructions on how to use the Miracle-Gro Plant Food for Vegetables and Herbs comes printed right on the package. I purchased the plastic feeding container which hooks right onto my garden hose. I then add the required scoops (it’s a powder mix), turn on the water and water the garden until it’s all. Easy to use! If you don’t have a garden hose…you can place the scoops of powder mix into a watering can and hand-water your plants too.

You can find Miracle-Gro products in numerous retail stores, home and garden centers, etc. across the nation. I personally like buying it from Amazon where it’s more convenient to shop and it’s delivered to my front door.
