Anyone who grows flowers regularly knows that every kind of flower has its own growth characteristics, so each one needs extra care when looking after it. Of course, when choosing potted flowers, it's best to pick ones that are not only beautiful but also easy to grow, so that caring for them isn't so much trouble! With so many kinds of flowers out there, which ones are actually easy to grow? Autumn is here before we know it, and it's also the peak growing season for flowers and plants, which makes it the perfect time to grow a few plants. Next, Potted Plant Stack shares "2 kinds" of especially easy-to-grow flowers with you. Even placed outdoors, they "don't fear" wind and rain, and they'll still fill their pots even without fertilizer all year round.

The first flower: the resurrection flower (Portulaca grandiflora, moss rose)

Actually, when I mention easy-to-grow flowers, some gardeners who've been growing flowers for a long time may have already guessed it! That's right, the resurrection flower is the first one to recommend. The reason I recommend it first is that this flower is truly beautiful and truly easy to grow! Since it dares to call itself the "resurrection flower," its vitality is naturally strong and its adaptability is extraordinary. So other flowers simply can't compare with it. It actually has another name, the "sunflower" (moss rose). Different regions call it different things; back in my hometown we called it the resurrection flower.

Care details for the resurrection flower

To grow this flower well, there really isn't anything special to watch out for. Just remember two points and you can grow it well. First, give it plenty of sun; it only blooms when there's enough sunlight. Its magic also lies in this: the flowers only open when the sun comes out. On cloudy and rainy days and in the evening, the flowers close up. The second detail is to water it plenty. The moss rose can't survive without water. Often after a heavy rain, its flowers bloom even more brightly. I still remember that when I was little, my family lived in the countryside and had a big yard. Besides growing some vegetables, in one patch of open ground we planted these moss roses. They're also very strong at reproducing; you don't even need to take cuttings, and in three to five months they can grow into a big patch. Really beautiful!

The second flower: copper coin grass (Hydrocotyle vulgaris, pennywort)

Copper coin grass is also a very easy-to-grow plant. It can be grown in water, in a mix of soil and water, and of course in soil as well. How easy is copper coin grass to grow? A while ago, a gardener friend thought this plant grew so fast that even the flowerpot couldn't hold it, so they simply planted it straight into the ground, and as a result it spread endlessly. Half a year later, the copper coin grass all over the ground couldn't be removed no matter how hard they tried, which was quite a worry. Then again, once copper coin grass is in a suitable environment, its root system grows very vigorously, and under normal circumstances there's no stopping its spread.

Care details for copper coin grass

Although most people think this plant is easy to grow and keep alive, some gardeners still can't grow it well, and yellow leaves keep appearing. To put it plainly, they just haven't really understood the growth characteristics of copper coin grass. Don't assume that just because it's a plant it needs fertilizer; many plants don't need fertilizer at all, and just need watering. Copper coin grass is one example. In daily care, you can go the whole year without fertilizing. As long as you ensure plenty of light and plenty of water, that's enough. Everyday care and maintenance isn't that complicated. Put in a bit more attention and you'll understand it better the longer you grow it.



The above are the 2 recommended flowers that are very beautiful and very easy to grow. I suggest gardeners might as well grow a pot of them!
