Snapdragons give cottage garden vibes in a big way. They make quite a statement in a summer arrangement (we love them mixed with roses and greenery or sunflowers, button mums, and greenery). A bold color mix, as shown here, lends a casual feeling to flower beds.
Belonging to the same flower family as petunias, calibrachoa come in a rainbow of colors. They are often more petite than petunias and have more of a trailing growth pattern, making them an ideal choice for window boxes and hanging planters.
Also called coneflower or purple coneflower, Echinacea is easily identifiable with its pink-ish-purple petals and large rust-colored centers. This popular perennial can grow up to 3-4 feet tall and is nice addition to a mixed bed.
Perhaps the most classic of all flowering shrubs, hydrangeas come in all sorts of colors and styles. Whether planted in groupings along a fence line, flanking the front door, or mixed in with other flowers in beds, the big blooms impress all summer long.
We love these summery white clusters for hanging baskets and container gardens. They complement just about any other flower. Deadhead spent blooms and the plant will produce more healthier flowers
Packed with tiny blooms, aster plants look full and colorful when blooming. Their bright starburst petals make for pretty filler in floral arrangements.
The best way to describe easy-to-grow cosmos is that they are just plain pretty. With a long blooming period, they make an ideal addition to a cutting garden.
Even amongst a sea of other flowers, poppies hold their own. Here, bold red blooms command attention. Pick a perennial variety so you can enjoy these happy flowers year after year.
With its clusters of sky-blue petals, vine-like plumbago is a favorite container plant, especially with a white exterior. It can also be found in white, pink, purple, or red, and blooms best with full sun.
