Collection: Summer Plants

Summer plants are not just adapted for summers, but some can also be planted in spring or fall. Most of them bloom year-round. Planting them adds a little colour to your once barren summer.

Bougainvillea, marigold, roses, and zinnia are the popular varieties of summer plants. Along with them, there are ixora, euphorbia, 9o’clock plant, pentas, lily, geranium, dalia, gerbera in the list. A few others that fill the list are gulmohar, coconut tree, mango tree, etc.

You only get summer for a few months out of the year, so make the most of it by transforming your house and garden into a full-fledged summer flower mecca while it lasts.

Some of these plants like petunias and geraniums are frost-tender perennials, but they are also treated as annuals. So, they need frost protection at the time of winter. Most of the summer plants grow from their seeds, but they can produce their seedlings once they mature.

Studies suggest that some of the plants that are grown in summer like marigold, bougainvillea, rose, etc., help check environmental pollution. They are modified to absorb these harmful chemicals and undergo a biochemical reaction to detox the body safely.

Summers aren’t a pleasant and exciting time for everyone, especially with all the sweating and heat. The only thing that can help you escape from it is your garden. Your garden with green summer plants and bright flowers is the perfect therapy you need.
