Summer is the time of year that everyone wants their flowers to look the best. The bright colors and beautiful arrangements make the perfect scenery this time of year. Chris James Landscaping can help you choose the best flowers to put in your garden. We can even make it easier on you by helping pick ones that require little to no maintenance.
Low To No Maintenance Flowers
Flower beds are a beautiful part of the warmer weather months. But, along with those warm days comes busy schedules. It can be so easy to forget about your flowers.
When they don’t get watered and maintained daily, they die. That is why we came up with a list of the top low-maintenance flowers you can have. The first rule of thumb is to pick perennials. They require the least amount of work to maintain.
Chrysanthemum
Chrysanthemums are unique flowers that can bloom in various shapes and sizes. They spread about one to three feet and can withstand being in full sunlight. That is excellent news for any New Jersey gardener. These beautiful flowers will grow to be about one to three feet tall and produce a variety of colors, such as:
- Blue
- Pink
- White
- Pink
- Green
- Red
Butterfly Weed
Butterfly weed is a very colorful plant to have in your garden. It strives well in the warm weather that New Jersey experiences. It typically will bloom white, yellow, pink, orange, and red small flowers all over.
It can be exposed to direct sunlight and puts off a wonderful smell. Like the name states, it attracts butterflies, which adds to its beauty. It is a great filler plant to add to your garden; it will spread around two to three feet as it grows.
Daylily
There are 50,000 different variety types of Daylilies that you can have. With such a wide variant of styles, these flowers have an extensive height range. You can find them anywhere from six inches to eight feet tall. The colors are often in pinks, blues, oranges, and reds.
Goldenrod
If you are an allergy sufferer, Goldenrod might just be the flower for your garden. It can be hard to have a beautiful and colorful garden when you struggle with seasonal allergies. That is why a little bit of research can help you find the perfect flowers for your needs.
Goldenrod is a simple and hardy flower to grow for beginners to seasoned experts. This plant is known to attract butterflies and bees. If you need a good flower that will spread throughout your garden, this is it. It can cover a span of up to 3 feet.
Painted Daisy
For low maintenance flowers, anything that can be exposed to full sun is best. That means that it can withstand the heat in the summer. Once you put these beautiful flowers in the ground, they require very little attention.
Painted Daisies are great flowers to plant in various places in your garden. Whether you want them to fill a bare spot, put them in pebbles, near trees, or anywhere else, they survive well. They will spread out a good amount and grow up to 3 feet tall.
