Grow these 4 flowers in your yard: easy to care for, beautiful to look at, and you'll have blooms to enjoy year after year

I wonder if you've ever noticed this: some countryside flowers sow and reproduce themselves every year, and they're so easy to keep alive that they bloom and fade on their own without any care, staying beautiful all year long. You've surely seen at least one of these 4 flowers.

Flowers of heavenly beauty

- Hollyhock -

Hollyhock (Alcea rosea) is found in many rural areas. It's extremely tough, basically free of pests and diseases, heat-tolerant and cold-resistant, and very easy to grow. When it blooms, the flowers come in long spikes of vivid color, giving a fresh feeling and really catching the eye. It can be sown in the north too, and blooms the very same year.

Hollyhock is fairly tall, so you can plant it along a wall as a backdrop for a flower border.

Plant more of them and you can even sow a sea of flowers - especially beautiful.

There are now many horticultural varieties, including double-flowered and multi-colored ones, as well as many new varieties bred by overseas companies - all of them beautiful.

- Morning glory -

As the saying goes: "Admire chrysanthemums in autumn, steady the plum in winter, plant crabapple in spring, grow morning glory in summer." Summer is the season when morning glories bloom, in blue, crimson, peach red, purple and more, as well as mixed colors - like skirts spread wide, lightly gathered and gracefully dancing, floating as if immortal, like a dream. Once the morning glory's seeds ripen, they fall to the soil on their own, and every year new seedlings grow by themselves, blooming continuously.

Plant one in a rural yard and it can be a feast for the eyes too.

Morning glory is a long-day plant and needs strong light. If your yard gets very strong sunlight, it can actually make the morning glory's colors even more vivid.

- Cockscomb -

Cockscomb (Celosia cristata) is also very common in the countryside; it blooms into autumn and then gradually dries up. Cockscomb is fiery red, with dense clusters of flowers like the combs of big roosters. Many flower lovers plant one by their front door; in autumn the dense seeds scatter with the wind, and the following spring many cockscombs grow out.

Cockscomb can also be used as medicine, with good effects on uterine bleeding and abnormal vaginal discharge in women. It can be brewed as tea or made into pastries.

- Four o'clock flower -

Four o'clock flower (Mirabilis jalapa) has an especially strong ability to self-sow. Every year it produces lots of flower seeds, and the next year new seedlings grow from the ground again, blooming and multiplying endlessly. Because the seeds look like little landmines, in some places it's called the landmine flower. Four o'clock flower comes in many colors - purple, pink, white and yellow - and looks lovely grown in a yard.
