Commonly Asked Questions
What are the best bedding plants that last long?
Bedding plants that flower for the longest time include begonias, and geraniums. These plants not only provide extended blooming periods but also add vibrant colours and textures to your garden.
How do you space bedding plants?
Place taller plants at the back of beds and borders. Graduate to shorter bedding plants like petunias,marigolds, and pansies in the front. Plant in groups for a statement block of colour or drifts between perennials and shrubs.
When should you plant bedding plants?
Summer bedding plants should be planted out in late May or early June once the last frosts have passed. This ensures they have the warm weather they need to thrive and produce vibrant blooms.
Do bedding plants grow back every year?
Plants used for bedding tend to be annuals, biennials, or tender perennials. Most bedding plants are annuals, meaning they grow and flower in one year. However, by alternating summer varieties with hardy winter bedding plants, you can have colour all year round.
Should you water bedding plants before planting?
Yes, it is essential to water bedding plants thoroughly before planting, whether you have grown them yourself or bought them from a nursery. This helps ensure the plants are well-hydrated and can establish themselves more quickly in their new location.
