It is best to let your plants develop before buying seed from the store. Generally, it is best to let them grow a little at a time until they are the size that you prefer.
A healthy plant grows faster than you think. It will be right where you put it so unless you put it somewhere else, they will be right where you want them. Some people tend to place their plant in a place that is a lot of trouble and effort, like in a spot that has many other plants around it, or even one that is hard to reach.
Before planting a plant, decide where you want it to go. You will have to add mulch if it is going to be in a shaded area or maybe shade. Mulch helps protect the roots. Adding a little bit of dirt is a good way to do this.
Try to choose a good location where the sun shines all the time. This is very important as the flowering plant will need as much sunlight as possible.
If you have some planting pots available to use for this purpose, use those for planting. Make sure that you place some drainage holes in the bottom of each pot, as well as any pots that you will use. Be sure that they do not stand in the water after watering, as that is where it will go.
When planting seeds, make sure that you have a clean soil to plant in. If you do not, you will likely find a lot of problems and waste.
One thing to keep in mind is that you can grow plants in any climate as long as they are happy with certain conditions. Plants that are sensitive will need extra care. Take special care when planting the dwarf types of plants, as they have smaller root systems and can be tricky to get in the ground.

When you choose the soil that you will use, make sure that it is not too moist. Watering often will help get it moist enough. Too dry and you will end up killing the plant by cutting off too much moisture and ending up with a waterlogged plant.
The most important thing to remember when planting is to be patient. Take your time and you will be well rewarded.
