Welcome to Bedhead Gardeners: Gardening Tips, Inspiration, and More

Hello & Welcome!

At Bedhead Gardeners, we give chemicals the thumbs down and great plants the spotlight--that's because thriving gardens should work with nature, not against her.

This blog is the latest horticultural expression of me, Nina O’Brien—a blend of my words, ideas, inspiration, and practical tips. My focus? Creating beautiful, low-maintenance gardens that thrive naturally. This mission is deeply rooted in real-life experience. In 2021, I embarked on a fine gardening internship, where I learned the ropes and the importance of sustainable gardening. It wasn’t long before I became a full-fledged gardener, eager to help homeowners bring their green dreams to life.

Love,

The Bedhead Gardener xo
