What can be more precious than to look out of your window while enjoying the view of your colourful flowering garden? Then perhaps using those same flowers to decorate the rooms of your house...

Planting your garden that way that will allow you to benefit from your garden all year around, although it does take practice and careful planning, once you have it planted it will be very rewarding.

Annual flower gardens are a lot of fun because you can plan and plant them every year, and every year experiment during creating your garden polans with different flowers and colors. The number of annuals available to choose from is incredibly varied.

An easy way to plant your flowers is in rows, just make sure you leave plenty of room to weed between them and do the watering.

Plan and plant your plants in a wide variety of colors, perhaps also considering the colours of your house decor while you are choosing the colours to achieve matching flowers to go with your furniture, draperies, and throw pillows. Colors matching your decor can be a stunning way to decorate rooms to brighten up a rainy day.

To achieve long lasting flower compositions, cut the flowers in the early morning and place them in water immediately.

Here are a few types of flowers that do really well for cut flowers in your home:

Gladiolas, Cosmos, Butterfly Flower, Celosia, Snapdragon, Sweet Pea, Zinnia, China Aster.

Have Fun Gardening this Spring!
