Flower Garden Planting & Maintenance

bearlyhere_2000 asked:


Grass in the yard got very tall due to my illness has prevented me from trimming and weeding. The grass in the yard went to seed and all the seeds fell in my garden and that has caused grass to grow in my flowers. I have many wonderful plants and don’t want to damage them by digging them up. Also, because of the plants, I can’t spray with a grass and weed killer. Another problem, there are fireant hills in many areas of the flower beds…please help with ideas.

Hey Everyone!

I am moving to a new house in the next couple weeks and noticed that the previous tenants had a small flower bed in the front of the condo.

I have never planted my own garden before, only helped my mom. What is the best way to do it? Should I plants seeds or potted plants?

Also what are some suggestions for easy growing purple, pink, yellow & white flowers? can you grow gerber daisies?

Your help would be appreciated, I’m pretty clueless when it comes to this stuff!! Thanks!
