Each plant has its needs

Plants can be divided into broad categories: trees, shrubs, plants grown from bulbs, hardy perennials...
Knowing how they function and what specific needs they have, is essential if they are to be integrated properly into your garden. Whether it is a rose bush or an oak tree, in a pot or in the soil, know, understand and observe your plants.
