Delphinium

Think summer gardens full of pretty flowers and you cannot miss the well-drained perennial delphiniums. These gorgeous flowers come in shades of blue, purple, pink and white. These flowers are easy to grow and therefore, naturally, they are a favourite of many gardeners.

Peonies

Peonies usually grow in a bushy clump. They require very less maintenance but do not like being disturbed. They need direct sunlight but must be protected from strong winds.

Hydrangeas

Hydrangeas are popular summer flowering shrubs. These flowers come in a variety of colours and make elegant bouquets. They are also a popular choice for weddings and gifts.

Hydrangeas grow well when the soil is well-drained and there is no direct sunlight. They need protection against diseases such as mildew and spots that affect them.
