When planting flowers and other container grown plants in your yard:
- Dig a hole the right size for the plant.
- Add compost, fertilizer, or other amendments to the soil around the plant.
- Add water to the hole BEFORE planting the plant in it.
- Plant the plant in the hole, forming a small basin around it to hold water.
Thereof, can I just plant flowers in dirt?
In general, most flowering plants do best in soil that's loose and well-drained with a lot of organic material in it. You don't need to dig a large area to plant flowers, but you should dig enough soil that you can add some compost in to improve the soil structure.
