Knowing the name and type of flower growing in your garden helps you care for it better. From my experience as a gardening expert, here are some simple steps to identify your garden flowers:
1. Observe the Flower Carefully
Look at the shape, size, and colour of the petals. Notice any unique features like spots, stripes, or patterns.
2. Check the Leaves and Stem
Leaves can tell you a lot. Are they smooth, fuzzy, or serrated? What colour and shape are they?
3. Use Plant Identification Apps
There are many apps like PlantSnap, PictureThis, or PlantNet that let you take a photo and identify plants easily.
4. Consult Gardening Books or Websites
Reference books or websites with flower pictures can help you compare and identify your flower.
5. Ask Local Garden Centres or Experts
Sometimes local experts know the common flowers in your area and can help identify your plant.
🌼 Final Thought:
Identifying flowers in your garden allows you to provide the right care and enjoy your garden even more. Keep a notebook or photo diary of your plants to track their growth.
