gardening - these are the fundamentals you should know

If you are planting bulbs in the fall then zone three to six is best planted during the months of September and October. The ground cover can also pull together your overall design in your garden.

This plan describes which perennials should be placed in the front row, back, row or middle row. Insert 8-foot poles every three feet along both sides of a path.

Adding chemical fertilizers and additives will in the long-run damage the ability of the soil to produce what the plants need to fight against insect attacks, disease, and stress. If you have a local quarry, then you should go and hand pick all your rocks. You will enjoy how growing your own herbs transforms the delights of cooking.

The only complication is that the wildlife will soon learn that no real threat exists and will wander back to munching on their favorite part of your beautiful garden. Most plants kept indoors prefer controlled temperatures; ideally the temperatures should be between 65 and 75 during the day and 60 to 65 at night. While the containers are a wonderful way to display the vine, planting will really help the vine take off.

You will need to be consistent for best results. So go to your local garden store and have a look around for ideas for this upcoming year.
