How To Prepare And Plant A Flower Bed



I love both flowering plants and cut flowers — seeing them in the garden or in a vase in the house makes my little heart patter in a very good way. My garden is full of succulents, bromeliads and plants from the Mediterranean and Australia. It certainly is not a riot of color but the interest from foliage, form and texture sure is there. I have a few pots planted with annuals here and there and always have a vase or two of flowers inside thanks to our farmers market. I would have been a great flower child in the 60′s.

I go up to Pacifica (just south of San Francisco) twice a year to do annual color changes in a garden I’ve worked on for many years. Yippee … this scratches my itch for shopping for blooming plants. A trip to nurseries buying flowers is one of the most fun ways I can think of to spend an afternoon or 2. In mid May I jam packed my car with plants, leaving just enough room to see out the mirrors, and headed north for the 5 hour drive.

Be sure to check out our blog post which outlines the steps to preparing & planting a flower bed – it’s clear & easy to understand.
