Care Flowers... Rose
Roses don’t like change and they are strong willed and like routine. �ey will use old habits to get through the day. �ey can “talk a good game” and always wants to know who is in charge. �ey are also very territorial. Provide routine, choice and keep them informed.

Garden Nutrition Facts & Health Benefits
ASPARAGUS
• Asparagus is an excellent source of Vitamin B6, calcium, zinc and magnesium.
• Rich source of glutathione, a detoxifying compound that helps break down carcinogens and free radicals.
• Contains fiber and protein which help stabilize digestion and keep food moving through the body at the desirable rate.
• Research indicates that eating asparagus can help control diabetes, act as a diuretic and prevent kidney stones.
BRUSSEL SPROUTS
• Excellent source of protein, fiber, potassium, Vitamin C and Vitamin K.
• Potassium is an important component of cell and body fluid that helps control heart rate and blood pressure by countering the effects of sodium.
• Vitamin C helps to fight almost every aspect of the aging process, including deterioration of the skin structure and damage to the arteries.
• Research shows that adequate levels of Vitamin K in the diet may help prevent, or at least delay, the onset of Alzheimer’s.
