Hi everyone, my family and i just moved here to Fresno a month ago and this new house of ours has 99% no green. I don't have any experience in planting(and so is my husband) whatsoever, but i knew i wanted this house to look pretty. I have just seen my mother in law growing flowers and vegetables everywhere in her garden and the only thing i saw she has were the plants and a bag or miracle gro. So we went and bought miracle gro and gazenia, and one iceberg rose. my 2 kids and i weeded and planted and put miracle gro, then i watered it everyday. The iceberg rose looked good by the side of our main entrance door, so i planted it there since it said it will grow 4 feet, then my husband said, that would be nice for me, to see the flowers while i am in the kitchen, i will see them thru the window. Needless to say, having not read or researched or know more about where the sun is and the consitency of the soil and everything that matters.(by the way, none of the sprinklers worked too so my husband bought a hose with that wand thingy)and a sprinkler connected to a hose, and so, everyday, since i planted them, except for the last 4 days, i have been watering them overhead. When i noticed that they are starting to die, my friend told me no over head watering ever..So now i water them one by one trying to save them. But my iceberg rose is hopeless in the present area because it doesn't get sunlight and the ground is always wet. So, i thought i will transpalnt it today, or tonight when there is no more sun. I have weeded the area where i will transplant it, and kinda loosened the soil.. Do i mix in the super soil enrich planting compost in with the soil now?, or later when i am about to plant it? i also have ultra green plant starter.. IT said apply to the roots, so do i spray it on the roots? i also have miracle gro, garden soil for flowers and vegetables, do i mix it with the compost and the existing soil that i weeded and loosened? again.. now? or later when i am ready to plant? All it's flowers wilted and the inner leaves are starting to fall off and turning yellow.. i hope the root isn't rotten yet and i could still save it.. thank you very much everyone...:)
