Cheverly, MD (PRWEB) Aug. 9, 2005 -– GardenHere is blooming with a number one
spot on Google’s hit list. “Fun,” “informative,” “cost-saving,” and “the number
one site for gardening,” is what gardener’s all around the world are saying
about GardenHere.com. With a membership base of over 2,000 and steadily rising
daily, GardenHere.com is making its mark as the only gardening site to go to for
plant exchange, gardening tips, and forum discussions. There are roughly 200 to
250 messages posted each day, giving members complete access to all their
gardening needs.
GardenHere’s plant exchange program uniquely caters to
gardeners’ cost-saving needs. Members can post to the forums types of plants and
flowers they want or have to trade with confidence that there will be another
member to respond. This month GardenHere is featuring a yellow self-planting
mini-cactus. The beauty of this plant is that its leaves become its seeds,
making it an easy exchange. There is no need for planting since you just have to
lay the seed leaves on top of the soil and it grows. Wait until the plant drops
its seed leaves or pick them off the plant yourself; it’s your choice. This
plant grows in planting zones like the tropics.
One distinctive feature
on GardenHere.com is the Zone Lookup Feature. As a member, you simply type in
your zip code and GardenHere.com displays your planting zone so that you can
select the types of plants that are conducive to your environment. This month,
GardenHere is featuring Zone 11, the Phoenix, Miami, and southwest Texas zone.
This zone is enriched with dry soil and a warm climate so planting in this
region is very specialized, yet favorable to year-round
growing.
GardenHere Member Grovespirit posted to the forums to help a
neighboring member in Zone 11: “I've lived in the Texas SW desert which is
similar to your climate. Also have an Aunt who lives in Phoenix and I know what
kinds of plants she grows. Would love to help you out. I currently am in the
same Zone as you (Z11) and growing stuff in 95% sand which produces xeric (dry)
conditions. Have several seeds that would work well for you. I especially
recommend Desert Blue Lupine, Pride of Madeira, Purple Firestick, Fragrant White
Flowered Acacia, Heirloom Daisy Mum, and Sweet Alyssum.”
“One year I
planted every variety of Sunflower I could find. That was spectacular! And hmm,
let's see, oh yes, one year I gave a heck of a party and as part of the
decoration I went to my local grocery store and bought out of the bargain bin
all of the $1.00 little 6 inch pots of mums that they had. Well after the party
I just stuck those little puppies in the dirt just to see what happened. Imagine
my surprise when they ended up becoming perennials that where 3 feet tall and
full of blooms every year!” wrote GardenHere Member Tanimarie.
Summer is
here and its time for gardening, beaches, swimming pools, and barbeques – and
with that comes the all too familiar sunburns. August is sizzling for GardenHere
as we feature this summer’s plant of purpose, aloe, which can cure the remnants
of your summer fun. Aloe is a tropical plant that has a gel inside its leaves
that can take the sting away from even the worst burns. So, if you’ve spent too
much time in the sun, let your garden work for you. Aloe – nature’s
vitamin-enriched cure.
