 It's planting season and in order for your garden to blossom proper care is necessary. When plants are growing in a greenhouse they are not used to elements such as wind. According to Tyler Olson with Nature's Edge Garden Center, bringing plants in and out so they can be acclimated to the sun is key to successful gardening. This is our biggest weekend for planting. Normally Memorial Day weekend is when we normally say we're frost free and we are ready to plant even though you do need to look at the weather just to make sure there is no more frost coming in the future because it has happened in June before. Now some flowers start seeding as early as January and other start at the end of April and in between. As long as it's not freezing outside your flowers and plants should be okay. Here are some tips to keep in mind to protect your garden. Make sure it's watered make sure it doesn't dry out and as summer progresses and gets even warmer you need to water more. Nature's Edge says that one of their most popular flowers this year has been the Night Sky Petunia.
