Plant a Flower Day

Date When Celebrated : This holiday is always March 12

The calendar says it is mid March, the dawn of a new gardening season. It sure has been along time in coming. Winter has seemed endless. Plant a Flower Day has arrived. It is a day to finally get a little dirt under your fingernails again. Take a few minutes to plant a flower today.

Gardening is a great hobby. It's enjoyed by millions of people, old and young alike. Its a hobby that virtually everyone can participate in, regardless of age, and health. Senior citizens love it, as they can garden long after they give up other hobbies and sports.

Identifying the correct date for celebrating Plant a Flower Day has proved frustrating and a bit futile. As we researched this day, we found multiple dates in March and May for Plant a Flower Day. We found no content sites defining the day, and no written documentation. No one claimed to be the creator of this day either.

Celebrate today by planting or transplanting any kind of plant. It can be done indoors, or weather permitting, outdoors.

Our research did not find the creator, or the origin of this day. There is reference to this day as celebrated on multiple dates across multiple months. We have posted this day as March 12th, as it is be far the most common date referenced.  

We certainly would like to take the mystery out of this day, and assure the proper date. If you have any information about this holiday, please email us.
