Easiest Flowers to Grow

 Flowers easy to grow

Growing beautiful flowers is easier than you think! You need to follow some basic rules to stick with these tried and true types. In the beginning, read the plant tag or description to find out whether the flowers are annual flowers that live in one season or perennial flowers that return for many years. (More about years and perennials here). If they are perennials, make sure they survive the winter in your USDA Hardiness Zone. And do not forget to give them the light they need. For example, if the plant tag says full sun, it is six hours or more a day; Part of the sun is half of it. Do not be fooled! Those who love shade will roar in the afternoon sun, and those who love the sun will not bloom in the shade. When you first plant your new plants in the ground, water them in case of any drought - that is, if it has not rained for a week. (Or look at these drought-tolerant plants!) If you are planting flowers in pots, make sure there are drainage holes or pierce some of the bottoms of the pot yourself so its roots do not get wet.

Now, wear your gardening gloves and plant these easy flowers to grow in your garden.
