SUMMER FLOWERING PERENNIALS

10 Best Perennials to Grow

The choice of plants can often be bewildering for the beginner gardeners. It is therefore probably best to start growing plants which have proven over time to be reliable and to add a lot of colour to the garden.It is also very important to prepare the soil well in order to avoid difficulties later on. Perennial weeds have to be removed before any serious planting is done. This can be done by hard work or with weed-killers. Planning a garden is another important part to create a beautiful picture. It does not need to be done all at the same time. In fact it is better and more joyful to spread the creation of a garden over a period of years. To know a garden takes time. Apart from flowers we should also think about leaves. Plant leaves look at different and by choosing contrasting shapes and sizes and heights of plants we can create a permanent picture lasting most of the year. The flowers are the decorations on the ‘cake’. Gardens give the most fun if you can combine maintenance with creation.
