Learn About Hardiness Zones
A hardiness zone is an area where specific plants grow best. The United States Department of Agriculture creates hardiness zone maps. Before you plant anything, make sure you check out the maps to learn which plants flourish in the particular area to have maximum vegetation. Of course, you can choose not to check the map and just plant what you want but you should not expect to have a lot of success.

Understand The Soil
Before you buy plants that you think will flourish, find out about the soil that is on your property to avoid wasting money on buying seeds which won’t grow. There are three main soil types: sand, clay, and silt. For most plants, the best soil is a rich and sandy loam, which is an even mixture of all types of soil. This is because loam soil has a higher pH level, a higher calcium level, and a gritty texture.
