âFireworksâ rodgersia (Rodgersia âFireworksâ) is a shade-loving perennial growing in USDA zones 5 through 8. This plant is tolerant of wet sites and produces pink flower spikes in the summer that grow to about 3 feet tall.
The bulk of soil is made up of a mixture of organic matter, rock and mineral particles. However, it's the air, water and nutrients in the ground that the growing plant really relies on. These are taken up by the roots and then used by the plant to form flowers and leaves.
These rocks are composed of the minerals quartz and feldspar. Rhyolite and granite are the two most common types of acidic rock. Intermediate rocks contain between 53% and 65% silica. They also contain potassium and plagioclase feldspar with a small amount of quartz.
