The garden is especially beautiful during flowering, and in order for it to please you with its flowering during spring, all summer and autumn, you need to create one or several flower beds and choose plants and flowers that are unpretentious and blooming from May to September. The design of the flowerbed with perennial flowers will create a flower garden where plants will sprout, grow and bloom in one place. You do not have to sow seeds every year, plant seedlings, but of course you also need to take care of such a flower bed - adjust the growth of flowers, remove dried leaves and inflorescences, and make sure that weeds do not appear.
How to make a flower bed that will look luxurious in spring, summer and autumn, before the onset of cold weather? The design of a flower bed of perennial flowers is hampered by the fact that the flowering period of many of them is short, and flowers need to be selected so that plants that stop blooming can be closed by blooming. When choosing perennials for flower beds, one should take into account not only their height and color, but also the flowering time.
Flowerbed of spring perennials

The first blooms are bluebells, snowdrops, mouse hyacinths, crocuses, hyacinths, then they are gradually replaced by tulips, daffodils, hazel grouse, lilies. The layout of the flower beds from the early bulbous perennials can be made in several versions - closer to the edge to plant bluebells and muscari, then tulips of different colors.

There are several ways to propagate perennial plants - propagation by seeds, cuttings, bulbs, root division. You should also know at what time it is better to plant certain flowers.
