Know How My friend Enjoy Gardening


My friend is a software guy working for a software company. He has the passion on doing adventures with gardening. Since I am also very interested in gardening, I thought it might be a fun to share my gardening adventures and experiences with all of you. So he was a software professional working for a software company. With that background out of the way, he is interested in gardening activities and enjoy getting straight into the garden and take a look at the blooms as he woke up in the morning.

In his garden he has different kinds of flowers. He always talks about the plant Dahlia, which is a genus of bushy, tuberous, perennial plants native to Mexico, Central America, and Colombia. There at least 36 species of Dahlia. Dahlia hybrids are commonly grown as garden plants and that is one of his favorite plants. He says…

“I absolutely love Dahlias for their cheerful color and spirit. Dahlias love a sunny spot and need lots of water. This plant is very sensitive and starts drooping if I miss one watering. They need to be watered at least twice a day and are not very fussy otherwise. The large Dahlia blooms in multiple colors with a very beautiful radial arrangement of petals around a light yellow center. Its leaves are not much to look at but their flowers more than make up for it. I also have a bunch of baby Dahlias that are miniature plants with smaller flowers. These are planted in my flower bed.”
