Cats & planting flowers!
Hi everyone!
I’m really wanting to have a little flower bed on my patio and grow my own flowers! I know certain flowers are toxic to cats, and while she does not go on the patio, I would absolutely HATE for anything to get on my skin or clothes that I don’t realize and have it hurt my precious cat. I’ve had cat safe flowers in vases, and she LOVES sniffing them (they’re up high where she can’t reach them but we will pick her up to sniff for a few seconds), but I’ve never done a flower bed before and I’m so nervous to accidentally get the wrong kind of seeds.
Any help is greatly appreciated!! I want to make sure I get flower seeds that will grow nice, beautiful flowers, while also making sure I don’t hurt my baby. I’ve looked on google but I’m still nervous about buying the wrong thing or having the websites be wrong.
Thank you all for reading and for any help you’re able to provide! 🤍🐾
Edit to add: location, I’m in Northern Minnesota, USA!
