In full bloom with Martha Stewart means planting with love

Stewart emphasizes the importance of planning in creating a rose garden. “A garden is a grand teacher,” she once said, and indeed, the first lesson it teaches is patience. Before you plant the first rose bush, you need to understand your garden’s soil, sunlight, and space. Stewart encourages aspiring gardeners to take their time in this stage, for a well-planned garden is half the battle won.

Once the planning stage is complete, it’s time to get your hands dirty. Martha Stewart’s approach to planting is one of care and attention. Each rose bush is planted with love, ensuring it has enough space to grow and enough nutrients to thrive. She reminds us that “the more you nurture a plant, the more it blooms,” a sentiment that applies not just to roses but to all aspects of life.
