Gardening and Landscaping

[DueDillinger]

Water is the key element. Most water too much or too little. Some plants hate wet feet, and others will not tolerate drying out.

Good drainage in the pots is essential. I find that water-retaining crystals (like Miracle-Grow Moisture Control Crystals) added to the potting medium help to keep the moisture level constant, but it's important not to overuse it.
