Gardens Grow With Annual Flowers From Lowe’s

Add a splash of color to your garden, porch or patio with bright and happy annuals. Annual flowers can be planted any time of year but won’t return like perennial plants. This offers many landscaping options, as you can change your colors and themes each year.

In the spring, look for vibrant geraniums and, depending on your zone, petunias. In frost-free locations, petunias can be planted in the fall, much like pansies in other parts of the country. Set bold verbena in the ground early in the season, as it begins to bloom quickly after planting for a lovely display. After the last frost, fearlessly plant beautiful begonias and frilly dianthus in your garden.

Summertime is the right time for marigolds and impatiens. Sometimes misspelled “impatients,” these shade-loving flowers fill gardens with dazzling and delicate blooms. With a similar look and heartier build, vincas tolerate full sun with regular watering and will bloom until frost. Depending on your zone, sweet potato vine can be added when temperatures hold around 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Sweet potato vine makes an outstanding addition to pots and hanging plants as it offers dramatic drapes of mounding green leaves.

In both the spring and summer, accent your beds and planters with striking coleus. This easy-to-grow greenery makes a gorgeous backdrop to flowering plants in shades of bright green and purple.

In the fall, mums steal the show, whether planted in pots or hanging baskets. These sunny plants burst with color and herald the transition from summer to fall.
