The Best Way to plant flowers
Want to make your garden look amazing? Here's how to plant flowers the right way! 🌸
- Pick the right spot: Check if your flowers need sun or shade. Most flower packets will tell you this! Look at your yard during the day to see which spots get the most sun.
- Get your soil ready: Mix in some compost or garden soil from the store. This gives your flowers the nutrients they need to grow big and strong.
- Dig the right size hole: The hole should be about twice as wide as the flower's root ball (the clump of roots and dirt). Make it just deep enough so the plant sits level with the ground.
- Water well: Give your newly planted flowers a good drink of water. The soil should be moist but not super soggy.
Pro Tip:
Plant flowers in groups of odd numbers (3, 5, or 7) - it looks way better than planting them in straight lines!Remember to check the weather before planting. Spring and fall are usually the best times to plant new flowers.
