    Truly observe your light exposure and the type of soil you have. These are things you can’t fight. Rather than trying to alter your soil, plant what works in your soil. Don’t go overboard buying every garden gadget. AND NEVER BUY MORE THAN YOU CAN PLANT IN A DAY!

    Plant what grows in your area. Tropical plants won't survive in a cold climate. Be realistic when shopping.

    My favorite tip is to make sure that the plants you buy are suited for the plot you are planting it in---- making sure that it gets the correct amount of sunlight and water and is protected from the wind.

    Went to our local shop today and that's just what they emphasized! Thank you 😊

    Thanks! Also, don't plant too close together....those tiny seedlings grow up to be big, giant plants that will soon be battling each other for Sun, water and space! πŸ’πŸŒΈπŸŒ·πŸŒΉπŸŒ»πŸŒΊ
