For every first time plant parent out there, if you need a little help on how to go ahead and take the right care of the green friends you have in your collection, well, you are at the right place!
If you want to get a proper start, sit down and plan your garden. It will help you know what to grow where rather than ending up with a jumble of plants that don’t look good together and might not suit your growing conditions.
Planning will also help you use the color and structure of plants wisely, helping you pick the best according to the conditions so that your garden looks great throughout the year.
Misunderstanding how the sun shines on your garden can be a major failure for a new gardener. Remember that most edible plants, including many vegetables, herbs, and fruits, need at least 6 hours of sun in order to thrive. There are also flowering plants that will need equal bright light for optimal flowering.
If it gets plenty of sunlight, growing full sun flowers will be a good idea. If it doesn’t get that much sunlight, you can grow for shade loving shrubs.
As a first-time gardener, you may be tempted to start growing multiple plants and want to do it fast. Never forget that gardening is all about patience, so you don’t have to take it all in one go.
Select a small piece of land and grow the easiest-to-care-for plants first. You can easily cover areas you don’t want to cultivate with cardboard or black plastic to stop weeds growing while you work your well-prepared patch.
It is possible that you are very interested in gardening, but are short on space. Don’t worry! You can grow many plants in pots, including vegetables, herbs, flowers, shrubs, and even small fruit trees!
Just make sure they get their sunlight and watering

Calla lilies are gorgeous flowers that grow well in moderate climates; when planting them, striking a balance in growing conditions is very important. For example, if you live in a hot, frost-free climate, grow them in the shade; in a slightly warm climate, provide partial shade; and in cold regions, find a spot that receives part to full sun for best growth.
