What are my top 10 flowers to sew in
0:03
March? Welcome to Gardening with Ben and
0:05
we're going to be talking about our top
0:06
10 flowers to sew in March. Now, I'm
0:08
growing so many flowers down at the plot
0:10
this year. Flowers are beneficial for
0:13
bringing color to the plot and also
0:15
bringing the insects and the bees to the
0:18
plot. Without the bees, we won't get
0:19
pollination. And yeah, it adds a great
0:23
color to the plot because a lot of
0:24
vegetables are just green uh the plants.
0:26
So it adds a lot of color and makes it
0:28
more bright and attractive. So we're
0:30
growing lots of flowers this year down
0:31
at the plot. So make sure you stay tuned
0:33
to see how well we get on with them. So
0:36
what are the top 10 flowers to grow this
0:38
month? First off are sweet peas. If
0:41
you've not started them off, now is the
0:43
time to do them. I'm growing mine in
0:45
root trainers. Check out some of my
0:46
posts and you'll see them growing
0:49
absolutely fantastic. And yeah, they're
0:52
doing really well. And we're going to
0:53
have an amazing display of sweet peas.
0:55
And the best thing about them is that
0:56
you can cut them off and the more you
0:58
cut them, the more they'll keep
1:00
flowering all year until the frost
1:02
comes. So yeah, give yourself some
1:04
beauty in the garden and have some sweet
1:06
peas. Next up are marolds. Another
1:09
beneficial one for tomato plants to help
1:11
ripen them. They keep the insects away
1:13
and they're perfect to have in the poly
1:15
tunnel. So I'm going to be growing a lot
1:17
of marolds to hopefully protect the
1:19
tomatoes. Next up, a cosmos. Another
1:23
great flower and easy to grow from seed.
1:25
So, give it a try. Next up are
1:28
sunflowers. Don't sew these untilwards
1:30
until towards the end of the month
1:32
because they'll get too big and you
1:34
can't plant them out until the chance of
1:36
frost is gone. So, don't plant them
1:38
until the end of March. I'm growing so
1:40
many colored varieties of sunflowers
1:42
this year. Red, black, orange, yellow,
1:45
you name it, I've got it. Not the pink
1:46
ones. Don't buy the pink ones. It's all
1:48
fake. They don't have pink ones. They're
1:50
red. So, next up are zenas.
1:54
Another great flower to grow and
1:57
absolutely gorgeous in the garden. We're
1:59
going to grow quite a few different
2:00
varieties of them this year. So,
2:02
hopefully we'll get some great color
2:03
from them. Next up are corn corn
2:06
flowers. Now, these come in blue, white,
2:08
mixed colors. Absolutely gorgeous. And
2:10
again, so easy to grow. I've grown them
2:12
in the past. Uh if I can grow them, you
2:15
can grow them, too. So, I'm no good at
2:17
growing flowers, but if I can grow them,
2:19
I can grow anything. Next up are
2:22
patunias. Are you growing hanging
2:24
baskets? Well, not growing them. Are you
2:26
having hanging baskets? And do you need
2:28
to fill them? Patunias are a good one to
2:30
use and also in tubs. They fill up and
2:33
spread out and make it look absolutely
2:36
gorgeous. So, now is the time to grow
2:37
your patuniius if you're wanting to grow
2:39
them for pots and hanging baskets. Next
2:42
up are nesters. Now, I've never grown
2:44
these before and this is the first year
2:45
that I'm growing them down at the plot.
2:47
I can't wait. And you can eat them as
2:49
well. So, we're going to grow a lot of
2:51
different varieties in the stersums. I
2:52
didn't realize how many varieties they
2:54
are, but we're growing a few different
2:55
varieties this year. So, if you fancy
2:58
giving yourself a little try, give them
3:00
a try and see how well you get on with
3:02
growing them. Next up is Colundula.
3:06
Another one that you can have in salad
3:07
bowls. I'm not too keen about eating
3:09
flowers myself, but they grow so well.
3:13
and they can spread and pop the seeds
3:15
everywhere. So if you're not worried
3:17
about that like I'm not on the a lotment
3:19
because they can grow anywhere color I
3:21
don't mind. They can pop up everywhere.
3:23
So just be careful with cola but a great
3:26
easy flower to grow and they look
3:27
absolutely gorgeous down in the garden.
3:30
So those are the top 10 flowers to grow.
