One of the wonderful things that a clear day offers is the opportunity to plant greens and flowers. Whether they be for your personal use, or simply to adorn and embellish your garden, flowers offer a liveliness that is both natural and simple.
When we think of flowers and greens blooming in our yard, we usually picture that the reason for a blooming flower is a bright sun over clear skies. It’s a misconception that leaves many gardens somewhat neglected during the colder months. Don’t leave your planters and pots to gather dust; a blooming garden can stay fresh all year if you plant the right seeds during the right time of year.
We’re counting down our top picks for beautiful flowers that offer your Fall season a touch of Spring. This means planting should take place in the late Summer or early Fall.
1. Pansies
Pansies offer a lovely fall palette of burgundy and warm yellows, but you can find them in every color of the rainbow. Noted as one of the most popular fall flowers, you can plant a few during the fall and watch them bloom in Spring!
2. Celosias
The quirkiest thing about celosias is that if you look at them closely, they resemble trees in the Fall! The color palette is warm and cheery, perfect for any arrangement in the home and refreshingly different from Spring bulbs.
The Elevated Wood Garden Planter Stand is the ideal location to place such bright, blooming flowers. It’s spacious design makes sure different flowers can breathe and grow uninterrupted.
