Growing Flowers in your Garden




People say that having green thumb will definitely give us bountiful garden. However, not all of us are blessed with this characteristic. On the brighter side, we might not need a green thumb to have a beautiful garden but a list of dos and donts to guide us. This article gives us some guidelines to help us grow a healthy flowering garden.br br br



Gardening is one of the most popular hobbies in the world. It provides soothing
therapy for some people especially when they see their work bloom in season.
These are the sort of people who want to use their hands to make living things
grow strong and healthy through their patience and hard work. Thus, gardeners
often feel a strong connection with the soil and a powerful appreciation for
beauty that only flowers can provide. The hours may be long and the work
backbreaking, but the rewards of seeing a single flower bloom can lift all the
hours and the aches away.br br If youre looking for a new hobby or just
something to do to spend idle time while at home, try gardening. Why Well, one
good reason is that a garden will definitely make your home look more attractive
and beautiful. Besides that, the air in your private space will be cleaner and
fresher since the plants absorb carbon dioxide to produce oxygen. Growing
flowers is easy, if you have the time and patience for it. The tools are not
that expensive and there are various resources in books, magazines and the
Internet to help you with your project.br br A small piece of land, tools, and
knowledge is all you need to start a gardening project in your backyard. Here
are some basic instructionsbr br 1. Choosing the right spot. A sunny
area with welldrained, fertile soil is the best for flowering plants. Make sure
that the area is sheltered from strong winds that could defoliate and destroy
the blooms.br br 2. Preparing the soil. Dig the soil thoroughly with a
shovel until it is fine and loose. Add a large amount of compost or organic
fertilizer to the top layer and mix it a bit with the soil. Fertilizers are
vital to ensuring that your plants have all the nutrients they need for growing
strong and healthy so make sure to do it properly.br br 3. Planting the
seeds. You can buy the seeds at any department store or gardening shop here
in the Philippines for a relatively
cheap price. Follow the instructions in the package in planting the seeds.
Depending on the requirement of your flowering plants, plant the seeds deep or
only at the surface. br br 4. Watering. Water the seeds or plants at
least twice a day. Moderate the amount of water as overwatering could kill your
garden easily. br br 5. Fertilizing. Fertilize the flower bed periodically to
make your flowers grow well.br br 6.
Pest control. Always watch out for pests that could damage your flowers
and take care of them early. Common pests are easily killed with the pesticides
out in the market so ask your retailer for advice when you come down to
buy.br br 7. Deadheading. Remove diseased, infested, rotting or old
blooms and leaves. This will prevent the disease from spreading or attracting
the pests. Also, the plants will bloom longer since dead flowers signal that the
plant should start producing seeds.br br These are only basic tips so make
sure to read more details on creating your own garden. Happy gardeningbr
