It’s Flower Time

Azalea

Happy Mother’s Day! This happens to be my favorite time of year because I can begin to plant my annual flower and vegetable gardens without fear of frost in zone 4. There is no guarantee that frost or winter like conditions won’t still occur but it’s a pretty safe bet!  I am extremely fortunate to have my mother in my life. Her constant knowledge and wisdom is a true treat https://zinniaboy.com/a-true-treat/!  This morning she reminded me of an old fashioned flower worthy of a festival in her neck of the woods. It is our featured flower of the month the Azalea.  Azaleas are native to Asia, Europe and North America.  It is a flowering shrub that blooms in early spring during the months of May through June.  The flowers can last for several weeks and can appear to be endless.  I consider it to be a shade plant because it performs magnificently under trees.  It prefers acidic well draining soil and can be cultivated from seeds or cuttings.  So, as the season begins remember to have fun and to check out our shop for all of your home and garden needs https://zinniaboy.com/shop/ Cheers
