Here are some of our favorites, and each is something we strongly encourage you follow as you put your spades, seeds, and bulbs in the ground.
- Start buying bulbs and begin planning your garden out. Make sure to give each bulb plenty of room to grow. If you planted bulbs in the fall, be sure to fertilize them now before the rains begin to fall.
- Consider planting dahlias, oriental lilies, and callas. Each will give your garden plenty of color and a vibrant appeal throughout the year.
- Plant your summer bulbs in mid-April, and make sure to plant them two to three times deeper than the bulb’s height. This will eliminate the dangers posed to frosty bulbs in the sometimes chilly spring soil.
- Make sure your plants have plenty of sun and well-drained soil to grow in.
