By the Bel: What to Plant in May
Belinda’s green thumb is itching to plant!
I’ve talked about gardening in a few of my blogs in the past, and since it’s eventually going to turn into autumn, eventually, I figured I’d go look up a few beautiful flowering plants you may find either in your local garden centre, or in the seed section of the shops, that would be perfect to plant now.
Cineraria – It sort of looks like a crazy coloured daisy, and the meaning of the flower is delight. What better way to beat a bad day than to plant something delightful.
Cornflower – Such a beautiful blue colour when it flowers; the cornflower is used in symbolic representation all across Europe for various things. Probably the one that’ll make a mind feel at ease is Social Liberalisation.
Snapdragons – These come in a huge variety of colours and if you’re anything like me it’s difficult to see the flowers without gently pinching the blooms with their small hinged edges and making them talk. (Yes, I am strange!) The meaning can go in one of 2 different directions, either deception and denial or whimsy and grace.
Be sure to follow the directions on the packaging for maximum satisfaction. Oh and if you manage to grow anything, be sure to send us a picture. I want to see what beautiful things can come from your deliberately thinking positively.
