The flowers shown in the photograph are a hybird of Vinca> These grow well around small beds or in pots mixed with others plants.
It's been a couple of months since I've checked on your gardens. How are things looking? I have blooms already! My potted petunias are beautiful. I also have some moss in a tray that's starting to sprout out --and so the hot weather will make them start blooming too! Roses are out and soon to fade, those who may find them florishing right now. My roses were big this year and all my bushes put out a lot. I have an American Red Rose and I have beautiful pink summer rose that did better than last year. While out and about in the yard today, I was trimming and pruning trees. It's a tough job, but the view you get when you're finished is breathtaking. For houseplanters.....you'll need to re-pot soon if you haven't done so in at least a year or so. Potted plants can become root bound just in a little time, and that can effect their healthy growth periods. If you have your houseplants in a good spot in your home, make sure you turn them from time to time so they can get equal lighting. Washing dull windows can also improve the lighting in a room. Keep trying if you're a beginner; soon enough your plants will bring you hours of conversation, --"you'll talk to them like I do".... and play them a fine heap of classical music..Mozart, Beethoven! Hayden! Listen to those strings!
For the vegetable gardener you should have cabbage, turnip or mustard greens, tomato plants sprouting like crazy; but tell me how are things growing will you? I need an update on a vegetable garden too! Let me hear from you as well. Organic gardeners what's going on?
Here's a suggestion:
Feedings: You can use any off-brand or name brand plant food. Follow package directions. Plant foods work on indoor and outdoor plants.
