A guide to what flowers are in season in the summer

It's important to know what flowers are in season in the summer so that you can plan your garden accordingly. The key to beautiful gardens is in knowing how to mix and match a variety of flowers so that something is always in bloom. By doing this you will help to make your garden the talk of the town, especially if it has been designed to last late into the year. We've put together this handy guide to let you know what flowers are in season in the summer to help you plan. Some popular summer flowers include chrysanthemums, forget-me-nots, the iris, lilies, sunflowers, snapdragons, solid aster, yarrow and zinnias. A combination of many of the above will ensure a great selection in your garden. Combine certain colors with the natural green of your lawn to create an attractive contrast. Include ornamentation that highlights the features of your garden - for example, a fountain or a statuette. This will make your garden one to be proud of, and one that you'll be able to love for many long days. For more information on growing your garden, please feel free to contact us at any time.

Additional information for your convenience

Now that we've given you some information about what flowers are in season in the summer, we'll provide a few tips on how to grow a full, large garden that will be popular with friends and family alike. The first tip is the most obvious - always remember to water your garden. If you live in an unusually dry or hot environment, this becomes even more crucial. Secondly, determine the sun and shade requirements of the plants you wish to include in your garden. Make sure you follow recommendations to make sure that they all grow to their full potential. Shade plants are best under a tree or along a fence, whereas high-sun plants are great for a front garden or one in the middle of your yard. Fertilizer is important, as is good soil, so definitely be sure to prepare the earth before planting. Lastly, don't be afraid to let nature do its work. Birds, bees, and assorted insects all form a natural ecosystem that will help to keep everything balanced and healthy. Encourage them to stay by avoiding excessive pesticides and by building a birdhouse.
