Organic Flowers
Organic Gardening is the way Nature intended its vegetables, herbs and
fruits to be grown.
Organic
flower gardening is one of the easiest and most enjoyable activities
that you can indulge yourself with. Any long-time gardener will tell you
that no matter how much they have grown, seeing their flowering plants
blossom into these bunches of colors and sweet-smelling floral scents is
truly a magical experience. That alone is enough to convince anyone to
grow an organic flower garden.
In order to have a colorful garden all throughout the year, you must
carefully choose your plants based on their life span and blooming
season. Annual flowering plants are the easiest to grow and blossom, but
they only live for one year. Perennial flowering plants have a much
longer life cycle, but you will usually have to wait for two years
before they start to bloom flowers. These plants are great if you want
to enjoy flowers in your garden at the start of every summer and carry
on for several months.
Scents and Colors
It
is so easy to find plants that will do well in sunny weather. Finding
plants that will thrive in cold and darker climates is a bit more
challenging. Pick plants whose blooming seasons fall on
different times in a year so you are sure to have an array of
beautiful flowers every season. Also, group small blooms in cluster
and mix-match them with larger flowers to create an interesting
combination of colors and texture in your garden.
Flowering plants do not require a special kind of soil as long as its
already prepped up with organic
matters and nutrients that they need. Annuals planted in a
nutrient-rich soil may no longer need to be fertilized unless they are
planted in containers. Potted soil is easily depleted of nutrients and
must be replenished every once in a while.
Perennials, however, will need organic fertilizers (compost and
mulching are recommended) once or twice each growing season because
they will feed on the same soil for many years. Just be careful when
applying organic fertilizers, as too much can damage their roots. Go
easy on foliar applications as well, because too much can burn the
flowers.
