Garden plans for full sun areas will often require plants that can withstand intense light and cold winters. You may find that your plants need more sun in the south than those who live higher up. Here are some tips for plants that thrive when exposed to full sunlight. They are a wonderful addition to your garden. Just keep in mind that a full-sun area requires a higher elevation than a shady area.
Before you plant, think about how much shade the garden will receive. You may also consider creating a shaded zone to lower heat and water. Perennials should be grown in full sunlight for best results. They require a well-drained soil and good drainage. Soil tests are a great way to discover the best varieties of perennials you can grow in your garden. You can add some sun to your garden if it is in the middle of your yard.
No matter what type of garden you are trying to grow, it is important to have plenty of sunshine. Avoid having to replant every season due to overwatering by using plants that require more water and nutrients. Consider growing annuals that can flower in summer if your garden is outside. If you live in a sunny location, consider growing plants that bloom during different seasons.
Plants that are native in your area will make a sunny garden more attractive. It is possible to plant easy-to-care-for annuals that give you summer color depending on the area. You might also consider a full-sun perennial, which blooms throughout the year. A native plant could be planted in your garden. These plants will thrive in full sunlight.
A beginner's plan is ideal if you have lots of space. It should be very easy to maintain and requires minimal care. This plan contains plants such as conflowers, coneflowers (Shala daisies), tickseed and daffodils. These plants are also heat and drought-tolerant. These plants can be grown successfully if you have the right gardening plans.
A key factor to consider is the garden's size. You should choose plants that have enough space to thrive and grow. The best plants for food crops require regular watering. So a garden in full sunshine is likely to produce more. Strawberries, unlike other plants, do not require any special care and can easily be planted in large areas. Even if you have a smaller garden, a shaded space may be better for strawberries.

How To
Use organic fertilizers in your garden
Organic fertilizers are made of natural substances like manure, compost and fish emulsion. Non-synthetic materials are used in the production of organic fertilizers. Synthetic fertilizers can be used in industrial processes. They are often used in agriculture since they provide nutrients to plants efficiently and quickly, without the need of complicated preparation. Synthetic fertilizers are dangerous for the environment as well as human health. Synthetic fertilizers require large amounts of energy as well as water to be produced. Many synthetic fertilizers are also harmful to groundwater and water surface because of runoff. This is a problem for wildlife and humans alike.
There are many types of organic fertilizers.
* Manure - produced when livestock eat food containing nitrogen (a plant nutrient). It contains bacteria and enzymes that break down the waste into simple compounds that plants can absorb easily.
* Compost is a mixture of vegetable scraps and grass clippings, animal manure, and decaying leaves. It is rich in carbon, nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, magnesium and sulfur. It is highly porous, so it holds moisture well and releases nutrients slowly.
* Fish Emulsion - a liquid product derived from fish oil. It is similar to soap in its ability to dissolve oils and fats. It also contains trace elements like phosphorous, Nitrogen, and other elements.
* Seaweed Oil - A concentrated mixture of minerals taken from kelp, red and brown algae, as well as green algae. It's a great source of vitamins A and C as well as iodine and iron.
* Guano - excrement from seabirds, bats, reptiles, and amphibians. It contains carbon, nitrogen, phosphorous as well as potassium, sodium and magnesium.
* Blood Meal, the remains from slaughtered animals. It's rich in protein and can be used to feed poultry and other animals. It also has trace minerals such as phosphorous, potassium, nitrogen and other nutrients.
Mix equal amounts of compost, manure, and/or fish oil to make organic fertilizer. Mix thoroughly. If you don't have all three ingredients, you can substitute them one for another. If you only have the fish-emulsion you can substitute one with another.
Apply the fertilizer by spreading it evenly using a tiller or shovel. One quarter cup of the fertilizer should be spread per square foot. To see new growth, you will need to apply more fertilizer every 2 weeks.
