In the foreground, rust-colored amaranth flowers frame the scene, while green corn stalks rise in the background, evoking a lush and thriving garden environment.

A handful of colorful seed packets—Chamomile, Lemon Cucumber, Flower Mix, Arugula, and Calendula—are spread nearby on a wooden surface, alongside a gardening book and trowel. The image captures the joy and intention behind beginning a garden from seed.
