To start, you need a wooden box, like the one pictured above. Start by drilling about 5 cm large holes. The distance between the holes should be approximately 15 cm.
Next: it’s time to start planting the petunia flowers!
Start by planting the first row of flowers, then cover them with soil.
Use packing foam as a filler in the rear of the planting box.
Plant flowers along the next line and repeat the above steps to fill the rest of the holes in the box.
Here are the flowers on April 13 – planted and ready to bloom into a beautiful garden!
Note: The holes in the box can make the soil dries up easily, so make sure to water every day. A little organic fertilizer once a week will also help.
Here are the flowers May 20:
