How Do You Grow A Beautiful Flower Garden For Less Than Ten Dollars?
Being a frugal gardener, I’ve learned how to grow beautiful flower gardens without spending much money. Here is a way you can have a beautiful flower garden for less than $10.00. Purchase some *easy* to grow annual flowers such as Zinnias and Poppies. Main Street Seed and Supply Company sells 600 California Giant Zinnia seeds for $1.95, 1000 Tumbelina Zinnia seeds for $1.95, and 34,500 Double Shirley or Corn-Red Poppy seeds for $1.95. With shipping those three packages of seeds will cost $8.85. When danger of frost is gone, direct sow your seeds into your garden bed. Water frequently and watch for sprouts. When sprouts appear, water less often and fertilize as needed. Enjoy your inexpensive blooming flower garden. You can continue to get your zinnias to bloom throughout the summer by dead heading (cutting off old flowers).
