Another idea is to add several varieties of night-blooming flowers that are not only ghostly white but also fragrant, like moon flowers, night-blooming jasmine, Nicotiana alata, and Datura. Brugmansia is a small tree with large hanging flowers that only open for a week at a time in conjunction with the full moon. What to Plant Although it is late in the season and gardening activities are slowing down, it is never too early to begin thinking about plans for new projects. With Halloween around the corner, it seems like the perfect time to plan a witch’s garden. Allow the cool night air to heighten your senses, creating a serene atmosphere for reflection and connection in the garden. Take this opportunity to perform moonlit rituals, harnessing the lunar energy for your gardening endeavors. Sage:Besides being a popular ingredient in holiday meals, sage is vital for various magical purposes. It increases fertility, repels evil forces, brings immortality, and grants wishes. This should be another dead giveaway. Lavender is an essential flower for the witches garden for many reasons. It is an edible and aromatic herb. Use the buds in soaps, candles, oils, incense, dream sachets, beauty products, baths, etc. Magical uses for lavender include: love, relaxation, self-care, lust, and healing. Lavender has been used for centuries as perfume on the body and clothing. Stuff a bag of lavender in your pillowcase to ensure soothing sleep and good dreams. Lavender is also edible in baked goods and teas. I’ve found lavender grows best in part shade (I live in a hot climate) and when it gets watered 2 to 3 times a week. 9. Jasmine
Yarrow has been known for centuries to be effective in healing wounds. It grows everywhere and is fairly easy to recognize in the wild. Yarrow is one of those herbs that’s SUPER powerful in inducing visions, communicating with the otherworld, and in dreamwork. Use yarrow in love and protection spells. It’s often used to protect pregnant women and babies. It’s REALLY pretty when dried and added to bouquets. Let it steep along with nettle and elder flower and drink to ward off colds. 7. Mint A witch’s garden is a way to connect with nature and the natural world in an increasingly concreted and sterile environment. Gardening lets us feel our connection to the earth and allows us to ground ourselves. Did you know that there are actually scientific studies researching the health benefits of grounding? We should all put our bare feet on the ground a little more regularly.Many witch gardens pay special attention to the shape and layout of the garden. Some like to create a garden as a circle or crescent moon. I also like the idea of incorporating an herb spiral as a focal point. But as I’ve just explained you can do a lot with whatever you have. Focal Point
In my opinion, any garden created by a witch or made with the intention of using the plants for any type of healing or spell work is a witch’s garden, even if it is full of vegetables.
About the author and artist
Witchy gardening doesn’t stop after your garden is planted. Visit your witch’s garden every day to observe and commune with your plants. A nature observation notebook can be a lovely support piece. There is something absolutely magical about having your hands in the earth and then watching plants grow and flourish through your labour. While gardening can be a lot of hard manual labour, I’m talking about the bags of compost I have to lug up 3 flights of stairs, they are also immensely useful. The hallmark of a witch’s garden is that traditionally, it isn’t really a garden. There were certain herbs that aperson might have kept near the cottage door, as they were in regular use. But certainly, when witchcraftcarried a death sentence, you wouldn’t cultivate plants that could land you on a pyre. Instead, the witch’sgarden was found in the forests, in the meadow, amongst the plants that grew wild there. Choosing plants in such a way that something or the other is always blooming is a unique way to maintain visual appeal while supporting pollinator species in the process.
Statues– Acquire symbolic statues for garden guardians or energies you wish to attract to your witch’s garden (think dragons, lions, fairies made of stone) Lilac: It symbolizes new beginnings as it usually blossoms during the transition time from autumn to spring. Your witch’s garden should be a magically charged place.

Simultaneously, it is shown that Mayor Tom favors building the bridge linking Middleton to the nearby city. What grows across from the poison plot are for the most part, beneficial.
