One of the most important criteria when selecting plants for flower beds is their resistance to pests and diseases. This is especially relevant for the increasingly popular low-maintenance gardens. Fortunately, among ornamental plants, there are quite a few true "Spartans"!
Garden Geranium
Most varieties of garden geraniums boast lush foliage and adapt quickly to various conditions. They are nearly immune to diseases, tolerant of weather extremes, and regrow easily after pruning.
Lupine
Hybrid lupines are strikingly beautiful yet undemanding plants. Not only do they decorate the garden, but they also enrich the soil with nutrients, acting as natural green manure.
Daylily
Daylilies are renowned for their hardiness. When grown in fertile soil, they can thrive in the same spot for over ten years without the need for replanting.
Echinacea
Echinacea prefers well-lit areas and nutrient-rich soil. Otherwise, it is quite undemanding. The plant is cold-hardy and does not require winter protection.
Rudbeckia
Even with minimal care, rudbeckia maintains its decorative appeal. While extreme drought or heat may affect its appearance, the plant remains impressively resistant to pests and diseases.
Sanguisorba (Burnet)
One of the key strengths of burnet is its adaptability and ease of care. It thrives equally well in full sun and partial shade.
