Interested in gardening flowers/plants? Well, there are no step-by-step instructions that can be offered, but just the basics. Ultimately, it is nothing but a learning process at the end of which, you are much better off than you were at the beginning when you just started!
A few basic suggestions regarding gardening flowers/plants are offered below--
(1) Do not be overambitious and go in for a large gardening plot at the very outset! After all, the activity is supposed to be an experiment. So land measuring roughly 20 to 30 square feet should do for a start. It should be able to accommodate at least 20 to 30 gardening flowers/plants, both perennials and annuals.
(2) Be prepared to put in a lot of hard work with your hands and get dirty in the process! The first thing to be done is to till the plot and even it out. Weeds that have made it their home for many years have to be uprooted. In fact, beginning a garden is more difficult than maintaining it.
(3) Once the land is ready, you have to decide what you actually want to grow. According to seasoned veterans, it is best for the novice to start off with annuals. These gardening flowers/plants bloom early and exhibit their blossoms until fall season. They survive only for one growing season. They are easy to grow and your garden is a wonderful riot of colors! And the whole palette of colors can be exchanged for an entirely new one in the coming season!
(4) Now that you have decided what you want to grow, go and get the seeds or seedlings. Opinions vary as to whether the beginner should opt for seeds or young seedlings that have already started growing.
(5) If you bring home seeds of gardening flowers/plants, you will have to prepare the soil properly and also lavish a lot of care on the sown seeds to ensure that they grow well. But seeds are inexpensive; so you will not lose much money if something should go wrong. And seeds can be replaced easily.
(6) Seedlings are a different matter altogether. Check that they are free of disease before carting them home. Diseases could be caused by infestations, infections or even malnutrition.
(7) Do some research and visit a nursery offering healthy gardening flowers/plants. Examine them carefully at the nursery itself before buying them.
(8) When buying seedlings, do not get those that have already matured. Transplanting them into an outdoor garden becomes difficult. Also, the roots do not find it easy to get a hold in the soil.
(9) And that is not all where gardening flowers/plants is concerned! There is still the idea of regular maintenance. The tasks involved here are--dividing cultivars, pruning, transferring plants into the house when they need to be protected, getting them back to their original places once the danger is past, and many more. Thus, gardening is not something that can be taken lightly; dedicated effort is called for!

Y R plants expensive? sheesh. Im getting seeds instead.
If you want to have a truly organic garden, you will need to buy organic seeds. Plants raised from any other type of seed are not truly organic, even if you have never used pesticide or weed killer in your garden. Standard seeds may have been subject to all kinds of sprays while they were forming on the parent plant.
