Aray bhai itna sb kuchh...!!!!
mashaAllah.. lovely preparation... I need to add few points:
1) Foxglove are too crowded, one plant takes 8 inch diameter...
2) Gardenia will resume growth by March and will bloom good if ferous sulfate is given every 15 days
3) Nasturtium will cover the petunias in mixed pot
4) You should provide very dilute NPK with every watering, dissolved NPK works much better that granules
5) Dont fertilize your bulbous plants with Nitrogen or Phosphorus fertlizer, better to buy potassium sulfate for their best blooms
6) For roses try this thing on few pots: get wood or charcoal ash 1 tablespoon, add little water to make as slurry, add two tablespoon common vinegar, leave this solution for 10 mins, add more water to make a suspension, give this whole suspension to your rose plant.. try this method one few roses and check the results..

Great work.!
Is it really important to cover seedlings, small plants for night.??
If yes then why? Generate heat or due to frosty conditions.?

Good Job!....excellent growing in very demanding containers. Good to see uncustomary species.
the plant you are referring to as osteospermum is dimorpotheca
helichrysum will require staking due to smaller pot size.
petunia and nasturtium is an awful combination. nasturtium will over shadow all petunias. remove at once

Thanks Izhar bhai
1. Actually I am running out of space and also out of containers. I bought these fruit baskets which are comparatively larger than
kayarees depth and lengthwise and also very cheep of Rs 30 to accommodate more plants.
2. Should I give ferous sulfate to Gardina now or when it will resume growth?
3. Again same problem of containers but I will pull them out and plant somewhere else
4. Confused about NPK. I have two types of NPK one is in granular form and other is powder. I used powder form to dissolve in the water
and spray over the plants. Can I use that powder to dissolve in the water and give this solution to plants? Or crush the granules,
dissolve in water and use it?
5. How often I use potassium sulfate to bulbous plants, now or when they are on blooms?
6. I will use your idea about roses inshallah

thanks Awais
there are multiple reasons to cover the seedlings
1. protect them from birds
2. also protect them from rains, thunderstorms etc
3. so far cats are proven enemy for my seedlings and plants
4. the factor of heat is also helpful to catalyze the growth
