Summer Flowers

Summer is a wonderful time for flowers, yet many gardens start to look bare of color or simply wilt when the summer heat strikes. That’s because gardeners often plant for a spring flush. Those flowers that bloom in spring fade off by summer because the extra heat does not suit them.

Yet there are many beautiful blooms that come into their own with that extra summer heat, so adding these to your planting will keep your garden looking a riot of color throughout summer. Both annuals and perennials bloom beautifully in the summer heat so choose some of each.

Annuals must be planted every year as their name suggests. They are usually only good for one season, so require a bit more work. But occasionally you will get an annual to come up the second year. Sunflowers, cosmos, salvia and marigolds are favorite annuals for summer flowers. Snow in summer; coxcomb and the globe amaranth are three less common flowers that thrive in the heat of summer, while angelonia, perilla and the sun coleus also make good choices.

Perennials are those plants that last for more than one season. Some last for two years, while other types last for several years – or are permanent. If you choose perennials with a long blooming season you will get more enjoyment out of them. Not all perennials are as showy as annuals, but some, like azaleas are a mass of bloom, albeit for a short period of a few weeks.

Longer blooming perennials include Astilbe, purple coneflower, Gaillardia, Rudbeckia and various daylilies – but there are many more. Many times you can cut perennials back after the first bloom and they will bloom again. Tradescantia, perennial geraniums, salvias and veronicas will do this.

If you have a fence or trellis to cover, you could add some of those fantastic flowering vines for lush summer flowers. Black-eyed Susie with its cheerful orange flowers and jet black eyes will brighten up any garden, while the blue/mauve trumpets of the morning glory vine add a lovely blue haze. The night blooming moonflower will fill your garden with a glorious fragrance – there are many more to delight the heart of every gardener.

Bulbs need a whole book to describe their many delights. Dahlias come in all shapes, sizes and colors, from tiny, neat-pedaled balls to huge, shaggy flower heads and everything in between. They are hardy too; so don’t pass up a chance to pop a dahlia tuber into your garden. Cannas, gladiolus and tuberose love sunny spots.

A lot of negative publicity has hounded rose gardening, mostly criticism about the difficulty in growing and keeping them. However, this should not deter you. You can easily get accustomed to rose gardening, and the rewards are quite fragrant and beautiful, to say the least.

Deciding what type of rose to plant is the first step in rose gardening. It’s not just about the color; there are many other things to decide. You need to think which rose plant to take – bare-root, prepackaged, container-grown, etc. The bare-root rose plants are available from winter to early spring. They are meant to be sown after the frost thaws over and the ground can be used for planting. Prepackaged rose plants are similar to bare-root rose plants, but they are sold in a box with sawdust or similar material so that the roots can keep some moisture. Then there are rose plants available in containers too, in the early spring season. These rose plants are generally budding and ready to bloom.

The manner of planting a rose plant is similar to that of other plants. The soil must be healthy. If you have experience planting shrubs, you are well-qualified to plant any kind of rose plant too, since the method is the same. The area must have good water drainage, be adequately sunlit and not be too cramped for the roses. Remove all the dried leaves and the unhealthy shoots before planting. Do not keep the roots too long; trim them. If the rose plant is bare-root, you will need to keep it soaked in water for 10 to 12 hours so that the moisture content in them is regenerated. Then, make a large enough hole to sufficiently accommodate the roots of the rose plant and plant it. Use compost or organic mulch if you want. Roses thrive on added nutrients.

The main ingredients needed for growing rose plants are the same as those for other shrubs, but roses might require a little more of everything. They will need to be fertilized more than other plants, and for a longer time. You must start in the beginning of spring, and continue fertilizing till the beginning of fall. But do not fertilize excessively. You will also need to supplement the fertilization with proper irrigation. Roses are very thirsty plants. You will need to completely water the rose bed once every three to four days.

Remember that roses need pruning too. Pruning makes roses bloom better and increases the overall health of the plant. Pruning is done differently for different rose types, and you must follow the suggestions given when you first buy the plant.

The most required ingredient for suitable rose gardening is watering. Also, the right kind of fertilizer and the right quantity of it is of paramount importance. Pruning is another aspect of rose gardening which is not just esthetically important; it adds to the health of the plant too. All this makes rose gardening quite a laborious task, but you can be sure the final reward you get when the roses come out in full bloom will be work every ounce of work you put in.
