Awesome Blooms

Hey plant lovers, it is now July and there are so many great things in store for this month! Lately I have been venturing through garden centers to get new ideas for my garden at home. I also loved the amount of color that I have came across. Here are some beautiful marigolds showcasing off this amazing shade of a yellow-ish gold:

These look amazing! If I had an outdoor area to garden in, I would have gotten these. The next ones that I saw were some brilliant purple petunias:

These purple blooms against the lush green foliage is very enticing and these are all so beautiful!! Both of these plants are great additions to have actively in your garden this time of the year. Marigolds are annuals, meaning that by the next growing season you may need to replace them. Petunias on the opposite side are perennials. They can last for at least two growing seasons. Both marigolds as well as petunias love an abundance of light to thrive very well. Great locations for marigolds and petunias are in hanging baskets on sunny porches or in a flower bed. Hopefully in the future, I can have an outdoor space to grow some marigolds and petunias. I hope that you enjoyed today's post! If you have any comments or questions, feel free to leave them below. Have a great first Monday of July!
