What kinds of flowers are nice to plant in your backyard for Spring and Summer?

I need some common flowers please :-)

What kinds of flowers are nice to plant in your backyard for Spring and Summer?
beebalm, coneflower, hostas. is it shady or sunny? half and half? four oclocks are pretty but spread like crazy. annuals like marigolds and zinnias or you could buy prepackaged seed mixes for butterfly and hummingbird attracting flowers.
Reply:I love petunias and you can find them about anywhere - Home depot to Walmart. They need sun. They are easy to grow. When the flowers die, deadhead them to bring on more blossoms. They are very pretty and come in a wide range of colors.





I also love impatiens they are very pretty. They love shady areas. They are easy to grow and come in a lot of colors too. They are also easy to find and you'll be able to find them at most stores like petunias. Give them a little miracle grow and they will flourish. The plants start out small, but the spread quickly.





Good luck!
Reply:Tulips; lilies; (grape) hyacinths; %26amp; go with different colors %26amp; heights. Some tulips blooom early while others bloom late. You can get very creative, like having low-growing white tulips with bold, red ones scattered throughout for a striking effect. Crocus are beautiful %26amp; the first to bloom after Winter. Enjoy your yard!
Reply:Petunias, marigolds and zinnias. Portulaca's are drought tolerant. Stay away from impatients, begonias and fuchsia. They need babysitters.... Good luck!
