NATIONAL WATER A FLOWER DAY

NATIONAL WATER A FLOWER DAY

National Water A Flower Day is recognized each year on May 30 to remind us the importance of caring for our garden plants.

#WaterAFlowerDay

This time of year, our flower gardens are nearing full bloom. Keeping them healthy is important. Sure, hydrating your plants can seem like a full-time job. But, it's also therapeutic to care for a living thing. The more they're nurtured, the more they thrive.

It's important to know whether your flowers like damp soil or like to be more on the drier side. Newly planted seeds will need daily watering until germination. Most plants prefer well-drained soil. If they are potted, they may require daily watering. However, if they are planted in the ground or are heat-resistant plants, they may require less frequent watering.

National Water a Flower Day also offers an opportunity to care for the gardens of those who may be homebound or in the hospital. Take the time to visit a friend who may need some cheering up by bringing them some freshly watered flowers. Flowers and plants always brighten any mood, so share your hard work with family and friends!
