Perennials are plants that live more than two years. They are unpretentious, they can be easily grown from seeds, while creating a delightful flower garden in their summer cottage. Unlike annual and biennial flowering plants, perennials are able to delight with their flowering for several years in a row, so amateur gardeners prefer these plants!
Classification and features of perennial flowers
Like any other flower, the perennial loves comfortable conditions for its existence - a warm and mild climate. However, a well-developed root system of the plant allows it to tolerate even low air and soil temperatures. Also, a powerful perennial root system allows them to grow even on soils with a low moisture and nutrient content.
Depending on the flowering season, perennials can be divided into three categories:
Depending on the flowering season, perennials can be divided into three categories:
- early: at the beginning of spring, the first flowers bloom - snowdrops, crocuses and hyacinths, in the second half - tulips and daffodils, at the end of May - irises and peonies;
- summer: these include most perennials, the most popular of which are grown from seed - begonia, chamomile, echinacea, bluebells, flax and lupine; most summer flowers are cut for bouquets;
- autumn: chrysanthemums, decorative heather, dahlias and roses (the latter bloom until the first frost).
How to grow perennial flowers from seed
Many beginner flower growers mistakenly assume that growing perennial flowers from seeds is more difficult than growing from tubers or bulbs. But it's not. In spring or late autumn, seeds can be sown directly in open ground or in a seedling box.
However, during sowing, individual characteristics of plants should be taken into account. So, for example, there are varieties of flowers that germinate only in the light, and there are those that prefer darkness:

However, during sowing, individual characteristics of plants should be taken into account. So, for example, there are varieties of flowers that germinate only in the light, and there are those that prefer darkness:
- in the light - delphinium, cuffs, oregano, goldenrod, bluebells - during sowing, such plants do not need to be covered with soil, it is enough to lightly sprinkle with earth from above;
- in the dark - geraniums, poppies, cloves, sage, chrysanthemums, asters - when sowing, the seeds are sprinkled with earth, and the box itself is left in a dark place.
Choosing flowers for the dacha
When choosing flowers for a summer cottage, one should take into account not only the flowering time, but also the height of the plants themselves. Along the paths you can plant low plants, such as shaving or sage, in the depths of the flower beds - peony bushes, fescue, roses, liatris or chrysanthemums, and climbing flowers near fences and arbors. You can also experiment with colors. A flower garden in delicate pastel colors or a colorful flower bed with all the colors of the rainbow - there are many options.
Perennial flowers are unpretentious - minimal watering, fertilizing and weeding are enough, and then they will grow in full force and delight with their decorative appearance.
