Need the instant gratification
of a beautiful annual garden? Learn how to successfully build
a garden from transplants.
Getting Started
Bedding plants are right for you if you want an instant garden
of beautiful blooms, or if you don't have time, space, or inclination
to start your own annuals from seed. Started flats and packs
of almost any type of flowering annual can be purchased at local
garden centers.
Most of these plants should be
planted after the last frost in your area. These transplants
can give you a jump on summer color and transform your flower
beds almost overnight from dull to sensational.
You'll get a lot of enjoyment
from your annual investment in bedding plants. Professionally
grown, they will be larger and easier to handle, will give you
at least an extra month of color, and will be better established
before midsummer's heat and drought have a chance to wilt and
kill them.
