Flowers From Seeds

October 12, 2008

Growing flowers from seeds is a very different experience from buying and planting an established plant. When you buy a plant, it has been grown from seed by someone else and will be deeply affected by how it was cared for during that time. In many cases, the buyer gets the plant home only to find out that it isn’t healthy and has been kept too long in a small pot.

When a gardener plants flowers from seeds, their own care and nurturing determines how the plant will grow. In most cases, simply growing them in the ground or a plant container instead of in the tiny pots that many commercial growers use will mean having healthier plants.When you decide to start growing flowers from seeds, prepare the soil by removing the grass, weeds and other plants from the area. Break up the top inch of the soil with a rake or tiller. Mix a little bit of sand in with your flower seeds in order to have a better idea of where your seeds land as you sprinkle them onto the soil. Sprinkle a very light layer of soil over the seeds or use a rake to lightly mix the seeds into the soil. Read the directions for each seed packet to find out how much water they require. After they begin to sprout, your seeds probably won’t need much more care in order to produce strong, healthy plants.

Perennial Flower Seeds

October 10, 2008

If you know exactly what type of flowers you want in your garden year after year, plant perennial flower seeds. When you plant and grow perennials, the same flowers will come back again each year. This means not having to replant the garden each year, leaving you more time for other pursuits.
Growing perennial flower seeds usually require a little maintenance once the plants have become established. After planting, the plants grow the stems, leaves and petals that will be visible above ground. During the coldest months, these visible portions may wither away, but the roots will continue to thrive below the ground. When the warmer months come, they will once again grow the upper portions of the plants and you will have new stems and new blooms waiting to open.
For busy people, perennial seeds give them the peace of mind of knowing that beautiful flowers will grow again next year, even if they are too busy to plant more seeds. This keeps flower beds replenished and the space looking well cared for.
Some perennial seeds will wait in the ground through the spring before sprouting while others will start growing right away. But whichever type you choose, you know that the plant will come back again and again, making perennial flower seeds a great investment for your garden.
