Bulbous garden flowers - photos and names of the most popular crops for the whole season
Their main advantage is gorgeous flowering, because most of these crops bloom either profusely or in large bright buds. Bulbous garden flowers, photos and names of which we will consider today, are on every flower bed. For some, it's just a couple of bushes of delicate primroses. Many gardeners have summer views in their collection. And most certainly have autumn flowers.
All of these plants have one thing in common - their root system is bulbous. This means that such inhabitants of flower beds do not tolerate waterlogged soil. Otherwise, each flower has its own characteristics and even the timing of flowering. Let's get to know some of the bulbous representatives, focusing on this factor.
So, depending on when the plants bloom, the following bulbous flowers are emitted:
- early spring or primroses;
- spring;
- summer;
- autumn.
Bulbous garden flowers-primroses, photos and names
Primroses are the first to bloom their buds on flower beds. Already in March, they timidly peep out of the islets of thawed soil among the snow.
Primroses can be planted in the garden:
- Galanthuses with snow-white small bell-shaped inflorescences.
- Crocuses with multi-colored buds, painted in white, blue, lilac or yellow.
- Bright blue unpretentious muscarias. For the similarity of the structure of inflorescences, but their miniature size, they are called mouse hyacinths.
- Adorable little mesh irises.
- Golden erantis.
You can even plant primroses under trees. They bloom while other crops are still sleeping. And by the time the crown of the trees covers the sun, they die off. This should also be taken into account, and plants with different flowering periods should be combined so that there are no bald spots on the flower bed.
