FAQs – Seasonal Flower Garden
How do I keep my flower garden colorful year-round?
Choose flowers with staggered bloom times and mix evergreens or decorative grasses for off-season interest.
Do I need to replant every season?
Not always. Perennials come back yearly. You can mix in annuals each season to add variety and fill in gaps.
What’s the best layout for a seasonal flower bed?
Use curved or raised beds with zones for each season. That way, your garden transitions smoothly from one bloom cycle to the next.
