Care for Flowering Plants

What's more charming than a vase of flowers? We think potted flowering plants. While they are a source of unending charm, flowering plants require top-notch care in order to grow well. These plants can be sensitive to weather changes and soil changes and can wither and perish within a short time under severe conditions.

Watering and weeding is not always enough. You will need to do other things like controlling pests, handling plant diseases, deadheading, pruning and fertilizing. Here we discuss important aspects of caring for flowering plants:

1) Water Your Flowers Regularly: During the summers, it is required to water your flowering plants atleast once a day. Flowers need a lot of water during the summer season, and if they don't get enough, they tend to have a stunted growth or may whither away. Winter and rainy seasons tend be cooler and wet, and so watering them even twice a week based on the weather conditions should be enough. Inadequate watering or over watering can cause fungal disease in plants. You will also need to take the type of soil into consideration when it comes to watering.

2) Use Fertilizers: with passing time, garden soil often loose fertility. And this reduces the nutrients in the soil that are crucial for flowering plants. Follow a routine of fertilizers that work best for your flowers. The best fertilizers are the water-soluble ones. Some fertilizers can create an acidic effect on the plants, so use only as directed. A wholesome fertilizer would have soil microbes, ecto and endo mycorrhizae. Try going for only organic fertilizers as they are safe for the plants with little side effects.

3) Weeding: Weeds always compete for resources from the plants, they can even turn predator plants sometimes. They can even harbor diseases and pests and need to be removed as soon as they appear. Make sure you uproot the weeds, when removing them and not just cut them from the base.

4) Mulching Flowers: Mulching is a process that allows the soil to retain more moisture than it normally can. It is a recommended practice for dry weathers and places with water scarcity. This also helps regulate soil temperature and controls the growing of weeds.

5) Sunlit area: Pick a sunlit area for your flowering plants. Sunlight is a source of energy and most flowers need several hours of sunlight a day while indoor plants require lesser amounts of sunlight. Pick flowering plants that need the kind of sunlight your space can offer. You can have your flowering plants in movable pots so they can be moved around the house to areas with more sunlight whenever needed.

6) Controlling pests: Pests easily kill flower plants and so it is important to keep your garden free of them. Keep your pots and garden free of refuse and weeds. There are plenty of pest controlling products available to prevent bugs, mites, rodents and whiteflies. Pick one that works best for your plants after doing thorough research.

Once you get into a routine, you will love working with flowering plants, every blossom seems like a reward to your gardening and caring skills!
