Adding A Blue Daze Flower To Your Garden
Adding a Blue Daze Flower to your gardening plan can add interest and color to your yard.
.
Flowers from blue to purple are widely available for your gardening delight. You can have a section for all blue flowers or mix them in with your other colors for a more varied look.
When planting your Blue Daze Flower it is wise to follow the instructions for planting and maintaining the flowers. It is important to buy plants that are appropriate for the area in which they will be planted – not all flowers will grow in the full sun. A sun loving plant that is expected to grow in the shade will only turn out to be a disappointment.
During the gardening season, take care to water and fertilize your Blue Daze Flower according to the directions that came with the flower which will help it grow to a full and healthy plant. Don’t forget to pinch off any dead flowers as this will make the plant grow fuller.
Other considerations for your Blue Daze Flower plant include:
Flowering Times – try to plant flowers that bloom at different times near each other. This way, you’ll have continuous blooms in your garden all year.
Size – arrange your garden so that taller plants are in the back and shorter ones in the front.
