This workbook is meant to help you center your creative process as you consider your outdoor space - just like you might consider a painting or a poem - with the goal of moving closer to to yourself, and away from the 'tyranny of the shoulds.' As you move through it we will explore pleasure and permission, acceptance and whimsy.

About the Author:

Hi, I’m Amy Gastelum.

One garden design client described me as, “the dreamy gardener BFF you never had.” It made me smile because that’s exactly what I’m going for.

My careers in nursing, journalism and teaching have all carried one major through-line: mentorship. With Velma Jean Flowers I’ve combined my experience teaching caregiving to first-time moms, helping university students navigate the nebulous nature of the creative process together with my joy-driven obsession around plants and gardening. I help clients select plants that are appropriate to their site and then I teach them how to take care of them for long-term success.  Let’s dream something up together!

Shipping FAQ's

Question - Why do I get the message "We do not ship to this destination" when trying to check out?

Answer - We don't ship every plant and product variety in store. Some items are too large and some are too sensitive to ship in the mail. You are getting that message because we don't ship one of the products in your order. More than likely there is a plant or pot that is too large to ship.

Question - Do you ship plants in the colder months?

Answer - Yes we do. We do charge an additional $3 handling fee in addition to our normal shipping and handling fees from November 1 to March 1 to cover the cost of heat packs to keep the plants warm during shipment. That fee will be added automatically into the shipping fee you see charged when checking out. We do advise you to take your plant inside as soon as possible upon delivery to avoid potential damage.

Question - Is it safe to ship plants?

Answer - We do our best to ship with the proper packing materials to keep the plant(s) in as safe a shipping environment as possible. The majority of the time, plants will ship just fine.

Question - What if I have a problem with my plant upon arrival?

Answer - Email us within 7 days of your plant arriving if you have any significant damage to your plant during shipping. We will ask for some photos to show the damage, and then we can issue a refund. After 7 days, we are not able to issue a refund. Non-plants have up to 30 days for a refund.
