Late Spring - The Best Plants to Grow in Your Garden

Late spring is a time of exuberant growth and blossoming as gardens come alive with many colors, textures, and fragrances. Late spring flowers provide a visual feast and bridge the freshness of spring and the abundance of summer. Some popular flowers include irises, peonies, lilies, and columbines.

  • Irises (Iris spp.) are a diverse and captivating group of spring flowers that offer an impressive variety of sizes, colors, and forms. Bearded irises, with their intricate, ruffled petals and bold colors, are particularly popular among gardeners.
  • Peonies (Paeonia spp.) are a cherished late spring flower known for their large, sumptuous blooms and sweet fragrance. Peonies come in an array of colors, including pink, white, red, and even yellow. These long-lived perennials can thrive for decades, making them a valuable addition to any garden.
  • Lilies (Lilium spp.) are another classic late spring flower, celebrated for their large, trumpet-shaped flowers and intoxicating scent. Lilies come in various colors, such as white, pink, orange, yellow, and red, and can create dramatic focal points in the garden.
  • Columbines (Aquilegia spp.) are delicate yet resilient spring flowers that feature unique, spurred blooms in colors like purple, pink, yellow, white, and red. Their intricate flowers are also a favorite of hummingbirds and other pollinators.

By carefully selecting and planting these late-spring flowers, you will be rewarded with a dazzling display that seamlessly transitions from the vibrancy of spring to the warmth and abundance of summer.
