What can I plant that will put blooms all year round?

I had a friend that always had something blooming in her yard no matter what season. She had dogwoods, azaleas, etc. I live in Georgia. I%26#039;d like advice on this. I want flowers all year round.

What can I plant that will put blooms all year round?
I use a lot of bulbs for late winter, spring and early summer color. Paper white Daffodils and Snow Crocus bloom very early. Annuals are good for spring through fall color. I especially like Carnations and Dianthus. With the mild winter this year (I%26#039;m in N. Calif.) mine only stopped blooming for 1 month and I only lost 2 plants (to gophers). For winter color try Snapdragon, Pansy, Chrysanthemum, Azalea and Carolina Jessamine. Allysum is a good ground cover that will flower year round and help fill in blank spots. Snapdragons and Pansies will probably have to be replanted every year but are very inexpensive when you buy flats of them.

You should plant a variety of plants and shrubs for all seasons so that when one finishes growing and flowering another plant will do the same. A mix of annuals perennials, bulbs, flowering shrubs, deciduous ones too will provide you with all year round colour. I suggest you purchase your favourites for each season and incorperate into your landscape.
Reply:There is no one plant that will bloom year round. Your friend had a mix of plants, and they were planted so that they would bloom at various times.





Very early spring: Bridal Wreath


Early Spring : Azaleas, Camellias, most bulbs


Spring %26amp; Summer: Daylillies, Irises, Crepe Myrtles


Fall: chrysanthemums (annuals; plant yearly)


Winter: Pansies (annuals)





Find a locally-owned garden center in your area, and ask them for advice. They will know what blooms well in your particular area. I know Ga can vary a lot w/ winter/summer temps from north to south. I wouldn%26#039;t bother going to a Home Depot type place; by and large the people who work there dont know anything about plants.
Reply:ask the friend how does she do that!
