How to Plant and Grow Flowers

Every flowering plant will have unique needs, so choose a site for your plant that receives the appropriate amount of sunlight. Soil should be fertile and should drain well, as few plants like to stand in puddles. 

When transplanting seedlings or nursery plants, unpot your plant and tease out any encircling roots. Dig a hole that is a little deeper than the root ball and twice as wide. Throw in a few handfuls of well-rotted compost or manure and place the plant in the middle of the hole. Fill in around it with soil that has been amended with compost.

Newly-planted flowers should be watered every day or so. Once they are established, you can cut back on watering. In general, you’ll want to water when the soil dries out an inch or so below the surface. Mulching with an organic material such as bark chips can minimize your need for watering.

Give your plant a boost during the growing season with an all-purpose, balanced fertilizer, applying it according to the package directions. With many flowers, you can encourage reblooming by deadheading any spent blooms.
