Today is Plant a Flower Day.
Indoors or out. Or maybe you make a plan to plant a flower sometime later. Pick a date, put it in a calendar, set an alarm on your phone, and commit.
According to the National Wildlife Federation, you have another option: “Although cold temperatures or other challenges may prevent some folks from planting outside at this time of year, starting seeds indoors is an option for anyone who wants to benefit from the ‘flower power’ that Burbank describes. Indeed, many native plants will not blossom from seed in the first year unless they get a head start, due to their long growing seasons. Wildlife-attracting perennials such as blazing star, purple coneflower and bee balm are just three examples.”
I also like how the examiner.com comments on today, “In honor of this fragrant and colorful holiday, today is the day to get down and get a little dirty! It’s time to get your green thumb on!”
Let’s start producing some oxygen.
Tomorrow: Jewel Day.
