What flower varieties are suitable for planting all year round

As people's material conditions become satisfied and living standards improve, combined with the continuous strengthening of green and eco-friendly concepts and awareness, more and more friends are gradually pursuing enjoyment of the spiritual world, and growing flowers and plants in spare time after retirement, work and study is undoubtedly a relatively elegant activity. Different friends also favor different varieties of flowers and plants, and in nature there are green plants suitable for planting in all four seasons. So, are there some varieties of flowers and plants suitable for planting all year round.

In fact, there are quite a lot of flowers and plants suitable for planting all year round, but because many friends do not understand the growth habits and characteristics of flowers and plants, they often overlook this aspect and mostly choose single-season flowers and plants to grow. However, there are still quite a few people who hope to cultivate some plants suitable for planting in all four seasons, even if they do not bloom in all four seasons, they can still be grown for their foliage or to green the environment and decorate a space. So, what are they.

Flowers suitable for planting all year round are often determined by their own growth habits and the climate environment, such as Dianthus barbatus (sweet William), Penstemon, blue flax, Iceland poppy, Sedum 'Red Leaf', Hemerocallis 'Hongyun', Salvia farinacea (mealycup sage), Viola philippica, Aquilegia grandiflora (columbine), Gaillardia, Rudbeckia, Begonia semperflorens (wax begonia), Viola philippica, Penstemon, Digitalis (foxglove), Liatris, ground-cover chrysanthemum, dahlia, Hemerocallis grandiflora, yellow Acorus calamus, Sedum spectabile (showy stonecrop), Hydrangea, Physostegia (obedient plant), Phlox subulata (moss phlox), Pelargonium (geranium), Hibiscus grandiflorus (rose mallow), Echinacea (coneflower), Canna, Ophiopogon (dwarf lilyturf), Belamcanda (blackberry lily), Iris lactea (Chinese iris), Sedum lineare, Dianthus chinensis (rainbow pink), Leucanthemum maximum (Shasta daisy), tulip, lavender, Gazania and a large number of other flowers and plants can all be planted in all four seasons.

But to judge whether a flower or plant is suitable for planting all year round, the most important factor is temperature. If there is a suitable time for planting flowers and plants in all four seasons, then they can often be cultivated. Below, the editor will discuss with everyone the four time points in the year suitable for planting flowers and plants:

1. Early spring

For most flowers and plants, they can generally be planted in spring, and mostly in early spring. This is because most flowers and plants can sprout and grow in a temperature environment above 10°C. And spring can basically meet this temperature condition from the beginning of early spring, so it is generally suitable for planting in spring.

2. Early summer

After the relatively important planting time of early spring, the suitable time for a second planting is often concentrated in April to June, because this period is also close to the early summer season. Although the weather is relatively warm, there generally will not be long periods of scorching sun, so the temperature will not be too high or too harsh. And many flowers and plants prefer a warm growing environment, so it is usually quite suitable for planting.

3. Early autumn

Usually, autumn and spring have relatively similar temperature environments, but the difference is that spring is a warming stage, while autumn is a cooling stage. And for many flowers and plants, it is often very suitable to plant in spring and autumn. If planted in autumn, they generally bloom the following spring. And many friends choose to plant in autumn mainly to let the flowers and plants have a longer blooming time the following year.

4. Early winter

For the southern regions of our country, winter often comes a bit later, so the temperature drops more slowly. And for some flowers and plants with relatively strong cold resistance and stress resistance, they are often also suitable for planting in early winter. However, for the relatively northern cold regions, it is usually not suitable to plant flowers and plants in winter, and even those varieties with strong cold resistance are prone to frost damage. After all, winter in the north comes relatively earlier, so the temperature drops both faster and earlier. But even in the southern regions, there are not very many flowers and plants that can be planted in winter.

In summary, generally perennial plants have relatively strong cold resistance, and common flowers and plants suitable for planting all year round are typically represented by crape myrtle, various chrysanthemums, Hippeastrum (amaryllis), lily, Hemerocallis (daylily), iris, Agapanthus (lily of the Nile), mint and so on. Especially when grown as potted plants, because it is easier to improve the growing conditions, there are often more varieties of flowers and plants that can be chosen for planting all year round.
