Gardening is not only a great way to spend time outdoors, but it also has practical benefits, and it can also be fun. You don’t necessarily need a big garden if you want to start gardening. You can grow vegetables and herbs in flowerpots or window boxes on your balcony, and potted flowers can make even the simplest and smallest place a nice sight.
If you have a garden, your work usually starts with some raking and weeding before planting flowers and sowing seeds. Before planting and sowing you’ll have to dig the soil and then make holes for the plants and seeds. Garden gloves come in handy if you don’t want to soil your hands with the dirt. After planting, the seeds and plants need water regularly so that they can grow well. You can also add some fertilizer to help your flowers, herbs and vegetables stay healthy and grow. Seeds first sprout then little seedlings grow out of the soil.
If you have a small garden, or a piece of land, you cam sow carrots, lettuce, peas, beans, spinach, cabbage, cucumber, radish and plant little seedlings of tomatoes and pepper. Seedlings are available in nurseries quite early as they are usually grown in greenhouses.
Spring is usually the season for planting fruit trees, bushes and pruning the older ones. Lawns needs special care too. Raking, fertilizing, weeding are always necessary and you might have to replant seeds in places where you don’t find the grass strong and thick enough. Lawn mowing comes soon after the first spring sunshine, because grass grows very quickly.
Annual flowers, like daisy, pansy, geranium, don’t survive the winter, you have to plant or seed them every year. Perennial flowers, like hyacinth, violet, forget-me-not, daffodil, snowdrop, rose, don’t have to be planted again, you can enjoy their fragrant beauty every spring.
To work in the garden, you certainly need special gardening tools, e.g. a shovel, a fork, a hoe, a rake, a spade, a wheelbarrow, secateurs, a lawnmower, a hose and a watering can.
If you dedicate enough time to your garden, you’ll be able to harvest your crop and pick your own fruit and vegetables.
