How do you get your blooms going?

While I am more of a foliage than a flower person, I do love to see blooms on my flowering plants. I know that the needs of plants vary and it may be a lot more complicated than I may suggest here. There are so many options for each type of plant- orchids, roses; dormant periods, growing periods; liquid or solid applications; organic or synthetic; reasonable or expensive.

I have not tried them all, mainly because I am put of by the cost of some of these options. However, I have been using balanced slow release fertilizer for many years and it has provided consistent results. It also works well on foliage plants. I find a release period of a month works best (some last 3). The nutrients are released more slowly than fully soluble types which makes it more bioavailable to plants with less leaching.

I use the product sold at La Vega Garden Centre, so if you have not used it before, give it try and let me know how it works for you.

Always follow the instructions and more is not better, no need to overdose.

If you have any suggestions, please feel free to share in the comments. We would love to here what works well for you.

Tips on how to keep succulents alive.

Who can resist the myriad of shapes, colours, textures and patterns of succulents? Collecting a few...or 10...or more, is never enough! 😆.

If you are new to succulents, or if you feel you have no luck with them, or If you have been gifted one and not sure what to do, read these tips:

1. colourful varieties need to spend time outdoors and get some sunlight to keep the colour and to stay compact. A perfect place would be a porch receiving a bit of sunlight.

2. Avoid watering and misting their leaves. This can set up a situation for leaf rot and fungal growth. Instead water directly at the roots or soil. Get a variable flow mister. A hose may be easier but won't give you the level of control you need. Signs are mushy and blackish leaves.

3. Succulents hold water in their leaves which make them drought tolerant, but it doesn't mean they don't need water. Be sure to give an intense watering when the soil is dry. A slow watering or soaking the pot with drainage hole in water are some good watering strategies. Signs of underwatering are dried up or wrinkly leaves.

4. They are prones to pests. Invest in a line of defense for your plants. Mealy bugs in particular seem to love succulents. So inspect under the leaves frequently and decide how you want to treat it (physical removal, organic or synthetic chemical treatments). Don't forget to treat the soil. You can check with your agro shops for options.

So don't be afraid of grabbing one of these planters now that you know how to keep them around for a long time.

These 6.5 inch diameter concrete planters come is grey or peach. They hold at least 11 different types of succulents which are all suited for outdoors. All planters come with care instructions.

Currently available Stefy's Pharmacy, Princes Town. Or call to order. $400 each.
