Tips & Guides for Beginners

Simple, practical advice to start your floral journey

Seasonal Planting

Choose flowers that thrive in your climate and plant timing. Start with easy-performers like marigolds and pansies for quick rewards.

Watering Basics

Water deeply but infrequently. Check soil moisture a few inches down and avoid soggy pots.

Soil Health

Use a balanced potting mix with organic matter. Mulch to conserve moisture and reduce weed growth.

Bouquet Building

Layer textures and greens, start with a sturdy stem, and trim stems diagonally for better water uptake.
