How do flowers get food?

They draw nutrients thru the soil thru the roots.


Do flowers eat decomposers?

No, flowers do not eat decomposers. Flowers are part of plants, which primarily obtain nutrients through their roots from the soil and through photosynthesis. Decomposers, such as fungi and bacteria, break down organic matter and recycle nutrients back into the soil, making them available for plants. Thus, while flowers benefit from the activity of decomposers, they do not consume them.


Can you compost dead flowers?

Can you use tree and shrub soil for flowers?

Yes, you can use tree and shrub soil for flowers, as long as it is well-draining and nutrient-rich. Mixing it with compost can help provide the necessary nutrients for healthy flower growth.


Will soil with protein help flowers grow faster?

No, soil does not contain protein. Flowers typically require nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium for healthy growth. It's best to use a balanced fertilizer to promote faster growth rather than relying on protein in the soil.


What does fertilizer do to soil?

Fertilizer adds essential nutrients to the soil that help improve plant growth and health. These nutrients can include nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, which are necessary for strong root development, flowering, and fruit production. However, excessive use of fertilizers can lead to nutrient runoff and soil degradation.


How does agricultural lime help flowers grow?

If the soil is acidic, agricultural lime (limestone) can counteract the acidity, and bring the soil back to a neutral pH. This allows the plant to extract nutrients from the soil.


How do weeds kill other flowers nearby them?

block out sun, soak up water, use up nutrients in the soil.


Why can flowers rapidly germinate?
