Hi everybody, thank you for requesting this video- I had a lot of fun putting it together! I'd love to hear about your gardening succession. Are you able to have blooms year-round? Please share any other tips below! :)
Such good ideas! Another thing that I do to help with the slump is the "Chelsea Chop" on several of my perennials. Say you have 10 daisy plants. I will do the Chelsea chop on half of those. Then those 5 will bloom later and fill in that gap. Some plants you can Chelsea chop are Phlox, Salvia, Nepeta, sedum, penstemon, Echinacea, Rudbeckia, Campanula and more! 🥀🌻
For winter, Hellebores, snowdrops, iris reticulata, hazel catkins, daphne, crocus, cyclamen and winter aconite. For Spring, Hyacinth, daffodil, sarcococcas, ornamental cherry, amelanchier, tulips, foxglove, Iceland poppy, sweet Williams, stock, wallflowers, honesty, alliums, and geums. For Summer, Roses, Lychnis coronaria, salvias, lavender,clematis, hydrangea, phlox, echinacea, sweetpeas, nicotiana, cosmos, zinnia, dahlia, osteospernum, and gazania. For Autumn, chrysanthemums, nerines, plus dahlias and salvia still. Sarah Raven has an excellent book called A Year Full of Flowers. She also has a YT and website.
Thank you so much for this video. I live i Maine zone 4A. My small garden gap is end of June thru July. So I am going to do what you said and visit garden center to see what’s blooming. I might also do annuals Thanks again
Hi from Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦 love having all season flowers & continuing to add more. I'm still a new gardener(4th full year) I go to my garden center so often, we've become friends & I get a heads up when shipments come in, lol😊
One of my late spring/ early summer favorites has become Bearded Iris. They are so tall, stately, and, Beautiful! Plus the fragrance just pulls you closer, when you walk near. For the fall, I love the New England Aster along with Goldenrod ( fireworks hybrid ) in the fall. The New England Aster, I have to trim by half in mid June so it doesn't get so tall, where it needs staking, but by fall it becomes this huge bush like plant, and it's just loaded with purple blooms! The bees, and the butterflies goes crazy ! The yellow of the goldenrod compliments the Asters so well, since they bloom at the same time.
I love my garden design for blooms all year. Camellia sasanquas and japonicas and magnolias and gardenias and daphnes and tea olives form the evergreen hedge in the shade of mature crepe myrtles. Then azaleas and Hydrangea paniculatas in front of that. Roses in the sunny spots. Nikko blue hydrangeas in the shady spots.
I am in zone 8A in N.C. I planted Swamp sunflowers (Helianthusangustifolius), which spreads and is so beautiful in late summer until frost. The pollinators are so loud on this plant that it is magical.

Perfect for the pollinators, too!

Oh that's wonderful!! I adore bearded iris, such a great one. They don't love our area, but I keep trying to convince them to bloom for us :)
