Some flowers prefer to grow in full sun.
Chrysanthemum
Chrysanthemums prefer full sun to grow.
The plant can grow up to 3 feet tall.
You can also choose any shades and shapes of chrysanthemums for your garden.
For example, pink, white, purple, maroon, red, orange, yellow flowers.
In addition, one of the benefits of chrysanthemums is that deer tend to avoid them, making them a safe choice for your garden all season long.
To keep your chrysanthemums thriving, water the plant regularly and pinch off spent flowers. This will encourage them to grow.
Echinacea
You can grow echinacea in your garden in full sun.
The plant has fragrant pink, red or white flowers that attract beneficial pollinators to your garden.
In addition, echinacea is quite tolerant of drought and partial shade.
It is also best to water the plant regularly.
Delphinium
Delphiniums are known for their tall, sky-reaching flowers.
The plant needs at least six hours of sun per day to grow normally.
However, delphiniums prefer cooler summers.
Despite this, their vibrant blue, pink, purple and white hues make them favorites among gardeners.
Choose well-drained and nutrient-rich soil for growing.
Also, protect delphinium from strong winds, as this often breaks the plant in half.
Dahlias
For your garden, you can choose dahlias of different shapes: from small pom-poms to ruffled flowers.
The flower has hundreds of varieties.
You can plant tubers in pots or open ground four to six weeks before the last frost date.
Dahlias will grow well in warm, fertile, well-drained but moist soil in full sun.
