 One
of the first signs of spring is the emergence of spring bulbs, but there are also many
varieties of spring blooming perennials available. Spring flowering perennials can
compliment the bulbs in your garden. They should be planted in a location where the
flowers will be sheltered from the cold. Sheltered under a shrub or specimen tree is the
ideal location.
When planting your spring flowering perennials placement is key. Remember planting in
groups of three makes more of an impact in the garden. There are early and later spring
bloomers so you can mix them up for the best spring show. You can plant with a formal
approach, where the plants are all spaced evenly in a specific pattern, or an informal
approach when the plants are placed in no particular order. This would be more of an
English style garden. To prevent your perennials from self seeding be sure to dead head
finished flowers.
