  Add to Lawn
  Petunias (Petunia spp.) are popular flowering annuals loved for their colorful, trumpet-shaped blooms and long-lasting display. Native to South America, petunias come in an array of vibrant colors, including shades of purple, pink, red, white, yellow, and blue, as well as striped and bicolored varieties. Blooming from spring until the first frost, petunias are often used to add bold splashes of color to garden beds, borders, containers, hanging baskets, and window boxes. Petunias typically grow 6 to 18 inches in height and spread 12 to 24 inches, depending on the variety. They thrive in USDA zones 9-11 as perennials but are commonly grown as annuals in most climates. Petunias prefer full sun for the best flowering display, though they can tolerate partial shade in warmer areas. They do best in well-draining, moderately fertile soil and benefit from regular watering to keep their flowers lush, especially in hot weather. Some varieties, such as Wave Petunias, are bred to be highly drought-tolerant and have a vigorous, spreading habit, making them ideal for ground cover or cascading over container edges. Low-maintenance overall, petunias benefit from regular deadheading to encourage continuous blooms, though many modern varieties are self-cleaning. They can also benefit from periodic feeding to support their flowering. While they are generally pest-free, petunias may attract aphids or caterpillars in humid conditions. With their wide range of colors, ease of care, and ability to bloom throughout the growing season, petunias are a versatile choice that adds vibrant, season-long color to both formal and informal gardens.

  Portulacas (Portulaca grandiflora), also known as Moss Rose or Sun Rose, are low-growing, heat-tolerant annuals prized for their vibrant, rose-like blooms and succulent foliage. Native to South America, these tough, drought-resistant plants produce a continuous display of bright flowers in shades of pink, yellow, red, orange, and white throughout the summer. The blooms open fully in bright sunlight and close at night, giving a cheerful, sunny appearance to garden beds, rock gardens, and containers. Portulacas typically grow 4 to 8 inches tall with a spread of 12 to 18 inches, forming a dense, carpet-like mat that makes them ideal as a ground cover or filler in garden beds and between pavers. They thrive in USDA zones 10-11 as perennials but are grown as annuals in cooler climates. Portulacas prefer full sun and perform best in well-draining, sandy, or rocky soil, making them an excellent choice for xeriscape gardens or areas with poor soil. Once established, they are highly drought-tolerant and require little to no watering, making them low-maintenance for hot, dry landscapes. Portulacas are generally pest-resistant and require little care beyond occasional deadheading to encourage more blooms, although many varieties are self-cleaning. They benefit from minimal fertilizer, as too much can reduce flower production. With their vibrant colors, resilience in hot weather, and low-water needs, Portulacas are a perfect choice for gardeners looking to add long-lasting color and ground cover in sunny, dry areas where many other plants may struggle.

  Marigold (Tagetes spp.) is a vibrant, easy-to-grow annual known for its cheerful blooms, which appear in warm shades of orange, yellow, red, and gold. Native to the Americas, marigolds are popular garden flowers that bloom from spring through fall, providing color and resilience in garden beds, borders, and containers. Marigolds are also valued for their ability to repel pests naturally, thanks to compounds in their leaves and roots, making them a great companion plant in vegetable gardens. Marigolds typically range from 6 inches to 3 feet in height, depending on the variety. The two main types of marigolds include French Marigolds (Tagetes patula), which are compact and bushy, ideal for borders and containers, and African Marigolds (Tagetes erecta), which are larger and taller, perfect for back borders or as a colorful statement in flower beds. They thrive in USDA zones 2-11 as annuals, preferring full sun and well-draining soil, and are highly drought-tolerant once established, making them well-suited for hot, sunny spots. Marigolds are low-maintenance and very adaptable, requiring little more than regular watering and occasional deadheading to encourage continued blooming. These plants are generally pest-free and deer-resistant, adding both beauty and functionality to gardens. With their long-lasting blooms, easy care, and pest-repelling qualities, marigolds are a versatile choice that brings color, texture, and natural pest control to a wide range of garden settings.

  Vinca (Catharanthus roseus), also known as Periwinkle or Madagascar Periwinkle, is a hardy, heat-loving annual (or perennial in warmer climates) that produces a profusion of colorful, star-shaped blooms throughout the summer. Native to Madagascar, Vinca is popular for its ability to thrive in hot, sunny conditions with minimal water, making it ideal for low-maintenance gardens, borders, and containers. The flowers come in shades of pink, white, red, lavender, and purple, often with a contrasting eye in the center, adding a lively touch to the landscape. Vinca typically grows 12 to 18 inches tall and wide, forming a dense, bushy mound that makes it an excellent ground cover or bedding plant. This plant thrives in USDA zones 9-11 as a perennial but is grown as an annual in most other regions. It performs best in full sun but can tolerate partial shade, and it requires well-draining soil to prevent root rot. Highly drought-tolerant once established, Vinca needs little water, making it perfect for xeriscape gardens and hot, dry locations where other plants may struggle. Low-maintenance and pest-resistant, Vinca requires no deadheading, as the flowers naturally drop after blooming, keeping the plant tidy. It is also deer-resistant, adding to its appeal in various garden settings. With its vibrant blooms, resilience in hot weather, and easy-care nature, Vinca is a versatile choice for gardeners looking to add season-long color and texture to sunny spots with minimal effort. Its tolerance to challenging conditions makes it a reliable choice for both formal and casual garden designs.
