There are many plants that have spectacular flowers; however, there are some that we recommend you remember. They are those that do not require previous experience in growing plants, and therefore are suitable for beginners. Discover the 6 common flower names to remember.
Pink
The rose bush is a shrub that has been cultivated for centuries. Many varieties they have flowers that give off a very, very pleasant aroma, but they all have something in common: they are some of the most resistant plants there is. It only needs light (or direct sun) and a lot of water (without flooding) to grow.
Geranium
El geranium it is a beautiful plant. It is the undisputed protagonist of Andalusian patios (and not Andalusian ones 🙂). Its elegance is unmatched. What's more, blooms practically every warm month of the year for several seasons, and can be both in places directly exposed to the sun and in sheltered corners.
Petunia
La petunia It is a small plant that is mostly grown in a pot, but it is equally beautiful in the garden, creating a beautiful carpet of colors. The flowers, although they are simple, are very cheerful: they can be white, red, pink, purple or bicolor. The only drawback is that, although it is a perennial plant, it is usually treated as an annual; that is to say, after blooming it is discarded since it does not resist the cold. But it is so inexpensive that it is well worth purchasing.
Thought
It is, without any doubt, the favorite flower of winter. Blooms very early, before spring comes, so it is widely used to decorate the streets and avenues of towns and cities. Its flowers give off a very sweet aroma, and are so brightly colored (yellow, orange, bicolor) that it is a joy to have a little pansy plant. Of course, it is usually an annual cycle, so we will have to replace it every season.
Margherita
La margarita it is the most common flower of all; in fact, there are more than 23 thousand species. It grows wild in Europe and North Africa, but today you can find it in all warm-temperate regions of the world. Its petals can be white, yellow, orange, lilac, or red.
Dondiego at night
The plant known as Dondiego at night is a lively herbaceous, that is, it lives for several years, widely cultivated in gardens and patios. Its flowers have a characteristic that it shares with very few species: they begin to open in the afternoon instead of in the morning. In doing so, they give off a very pleasant aroma.
