Let us try. That is in our hands. The persistence. The patience. Gardening is all about waiting. My mango sapling is showing signs of distress. I have tried to address it and I hope it recovers. It comes from a special batch of mangoes all the way from Hyderabad from a friend who has since moved to America. It is a year old. The memories of a warm friendship born out of mutual respect and trust. Maybe I see her again maybe I don’t but this Mango tree is a constant reminder of happier summers spent together discussing plants (what-else do you think) 🙂Hold close the people who share and care for your interests as much as you do. Who is that one person who you spend time talking plants? 🍃 🌿 🌳 🥭 #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantsofinstagram #plantsplantsplants #plantastic #botanicalgarden #bonsai #mango #mangoseason #bff #bestfriend #bestfriendsforever #plantgoals #mangoes #mangomango #mangoplant #mangotree #mangofruit #planttherapy #gardentherapy #gardeningismytherapy #gardeningismypassion #gardeninspiration #mygardenlife #mygardenstyle #storiesfrommylife #bonsaï #bonsái #bonsaiwork #persistence #patience https://www.instagram.com/p/CNCtwVJnSsc/?igshid=scvsofwp7c4

Important tip for more blooms –
Gaillardia grandiflora does not require deadheading to keep blooming, but the plants will look better and be fuller if you do cut the stems back, when the flowers start to fade.
You will also get more continuous flowering with deadheading.
Outdoor plants… need full day sun.
But easiest to grow.
When I remove old flowers from the plant, I add them back to the pot and they start sprouting as baby plants…
