The garden is the very place where a person rests both body and soul: beautiful plants, planted once with caring hands, give him the opportunity to feel his unity with nature. But what about novice summer residents-gardeners who are just planning to plant a garden and are tormented by doubts about what exactly is best for them to plant? What flowers would be a safe bet for any garden?
Peony is a luxurious decoration of the garden
Peonies are good not only in bouquets - these amazing fragrant flowers are actively used for decorating flower beds and flower beds. Their main advantage is that they can easily grow in the same place for more than a dozen years.
The most popular today are the tree-like, thin-leaved, evanescent and Chinese (milky-flowered) peonies. If you choose the right site for planting peonies, then they will delight the eye with their lush flowering every year. Ideally, these beautiful flowers should be planted in areas that are well protected from the wind and sunny. As for the soil, the best option will be clay or loamy soils enriched with minerals. But on sandy loam soils or in shaded areas (especially in the shade of trees), it is categorically not recommended to plant peonies - they will bloom extremely unimportantly and age very quickly.
Narcissus is a proud handsome man
Another good option for decorating a garden would be
daffodils … Currently, there are more than six dozen varieties of these beautiful flowers in nature, so you can choose for every taste and even color! In addition, these flowers are very unpretentious - they will grow equally well both in the sun and in the shade, however, it is important to try to protect them from strong winds. Best of all, these proud beauties will feel on heavy sandy soils previously cultivated with humus or sand. As for the soils near which groundwater lies, they are definitely not suitable for growing daffodils - as a result of an excess of moisture, the bulbs of bright colors can begin to rot. By the way, it is necessary to plant the bulbs in the fall, and the depth of their planting is determined not only by the type of soil, but also by the size of the bulbs. However, the soil layer above any bulbs should be at least twelve to fifteen centimeters thick.
Aristocratic phlox
Graceful panicle inflorescences
phlox can transform any garden in the blink of an eye! These wonderful flowers, like many of their brothers, are very partial to the sun, however, the summer afternoon heat affects their well-being far from the best. That is why they are best planted in areas where phloxes will be in the shade of more hardy companions in the flower bed at midday. In addition, these lovers of regular watering are extremely unimportant to react to stagnant water. Accordingly, the best for planting them will be flat areas, which must be systematically loosened.
Pamper the flowers growing in the garden with constant attention and care, and they will certainly thank you with their luxurious bloom!
