Hello!

Hello! I am new here obviously, I am also new to gardening. I actually have SOME experience as I did it all by myself last year without any help, and I wouldn't mind extra pointers and stuff as well this time around. I want to eventually go into a better looking garden than the one that I have already as it's pretty basic and small. I want to actually make a box garden more or less because I am gardening in my parents yard and they only gave me so much space. This way its neater and my brothers won't mow over any of my plants >.<. Anyway I am new Hello!

Hi! I am new here as well. I love to garden. I can grow a flower all day long but I cannot grow vegetables to save my life. Haha. Flowers and herbs are my friends. Roses, lilies, petunias, daffodils, Irises, mint, Terragon, and Rosemary are my specialties. My garden is overflowing with those! Find the area you want to use for your garden, Miracle Gro is the best soil to use,make sure you lay down some kind of garden tarp to help control the weeds. Plant hearty flowers,and depending on where you are planting whether it is not a sun or the shade, make sure you get the proper flowers for that area, otherwisetoo much sun or not enough sun could kill them.instructions about how much water to give them everyday. Once I plant a flower I like tubes sprinkle bark chips around them, doesn't really do anything for the flowers but it is just something I'd like to do. Good luck with whatever you plant!

I know that much thanks for the advice.

and if you can grow those herbs I guarentee you can grow cucumbers, you treat them just like you would Basil! Except they give you veggies lmao. Right now the box garden is only for my veggies and has to wait until fall of this year. I can't do it with the flowers because of my dad's rose bushes. he's got two fully established bushes that will not stop growing *i pruned them to his displeasure, though I think he's a little happy now because they actually bloomed this year lol* but i'd have to make plans around his bushes and my moms already established Iris'
