5 Seasonal Flowers that Will Add a Colorful Flourish to Your Summer Garden

Last updated 11 months ago

Summer is a time of warmth and bright color. No landscape design is complete without gorgeous flowerbeds that love the heat.

1. Black-Eyed Susan:

Cheerful and sunny, this yellow flower with a dark center blooms in packs for bursts of color. One of the great things about this perennial is that it will keep on blooming until the first frost for all-season color in your landscape design.

2. Bird of Paradise:

This spectacular plant provides brilliant orange and purple blooms with an exotic flair. Large, tropical leaves and a tall stature make this particular flower suited to big planters and focal points in your residential landscaping.

3. Hydrangea:

This flower blooms in clusters of petals, and the colors can range from a pale cream to pink, blue, and even purple depending on the species and chemical balance of the soil. Your landscape design specialist can help you choose and grow the colors of your choice.

4. Dahlia:

Another dramatic species, dahlias have wildly differing petal shapes and colors. From brilliant yellow with thin, almost tubular petals to deep red, rounded blooms, these flowers can complement your existing residential landscaping—or steal the show entirely.

5. Foxglove:

Characterized by tall stems and lines of trumpet-shaped flowers, the foxglove plant offers an array of colors and variations. With a little care from your landscape design specialist, this biennial plant can last over two years.
