We here at Kitty’s Flowers are pleased as punch that Earth Day has orbited back around again. This April 22, our community will be hosting Earth-centric events in solidarity with countries around the world, all of whom come together to recognize this day as the chance to promote environmental awareness and good stewardship of our planet. This is an excellent time to educate our youngest citizens on how to take care of the Earth, and one of the best ways to do that is to have them grow something themselves.

Bring a Bulb Garden home this year and give everyone in the house some practice in how to take care of nature. These potted beauties may be tulips, hyacinth or even daffodils—all beautiful spring flowers that both celebrate the season and remind us of our planet’s undeniable beauty. Bulb gardens are a great way to get kids involved in the process of growing and planting.

While you’re attending recycling drives, community plantings and environmental fairs, remember to tend to your own little patch of the Earth, too. Make a new bulb garden a part of that.
