Outside the window, drizzling sweeps up rare remnants of bare plant stems, as if trying to dust our memory of summer. But white flakes of snow softly fall on the spreading paws of the spruce, dressing the garden in white clothes, visually increasing its size, giving rise to a feeling of freedom and lightness. The same lightness and whiteness can be given to a summer garden by planting plants with white flowers in it

A symbol of carelessness

White is associated with purity, joy, purity, happiness, childhood and carelessness. If in our dusty and smoke-saturated industrial cities, they try to paint houses in such colors, in which the soot from factories and plants is not so noticeable, then at the dacha we can afford to arrange a small white paradise against the background of fresh greenery.

What plants can you choose for a garden and a summer cottage flower garden in order to enjoy whiteness and serenity throughout the summer season?

Spring snow-white in the country

In the spring they dress up in our white clothes

fruit trees

bird cherry, bushes

white lilac, pushing apart the country spaces and filling them with aroma.

After the snow melts, the ground looks especially black. But now the modest heads have turned white

snowdrops

Early flowering bulbous perennials kept whiteness behind the snowdrops:

daffodils, white varieties

hyacinths and tulips, woodlands and muscari, Caucasian hellebore

From May until the cold weather they will look at you

pansies varieties "White crystal" - white monochromatic violets.

Perennial

anemones varieties "White giant" will reveal their spring white flowers, and on the alpine slide will appear a low beautiful carpet of perennial

Rezuhi

Summer White

Tuberous begonia, the variety "Double White" ("Double White", that is, "double white" or "double whiteness") will take place in a rabatka or on a rocky area from June to frost; decorate a balcony or terrace, sitting in an openwork pots or flowerpot. The Thousand Wonder White variety will also conquer with its whiteness.

Gypsophila from June to September, it will create an airy light cloud of its small, but numerous flowers.

Carnation Turkish, garden carnation, Shabo carnation will helpfully provide varieties with white inflorescences.

Ageratum, which is also called "long-flowered", and the translation of the word means "ageless", will decorate the garden with its white fluffy and fragrant inflorescences from June to the beginning of frost. The variety "Summer Snow", that is, "Summer Snow", will especially delight you with its whiteness.

Cineraria although it does not give white flowers, with its delicate silvery leaves it creates the illusion of a forest covered with frost.

Astilba, varieties "Deutscland", "Schtrausenfeder", Japanese astilba with its delicate diamond-shaped inflorescences up to 30 centimeters in length will delight in July-August.

Lobularia sea, which in my childhood we called for some reason "mignonette". Its varieties "Carpet of snow", "Tetra schneereiben" with their fragrant and fluffy caps of white flowers frame flower beds, decorate the heads of garden sculptures, hang from pots on terraces and balconies.

White autumn

Large annual whites

asters will decorate not only a flower garden, but also your home, comfortably sitting in a flower vase with an airy white bouquet.

Autumn pleases the summer resident with white flowers similar to crocuses - flowers

colchicum, grade "Album".

And many more white flowers are waiting for your decision to decorate your garden in a white outfit. This is

chamomile and cornflower, white lilies and peonies, dahlias, roses …

Correctly selected plants of the same color will not make the garden monotonous, because green will always accompany the white color.
