As the summer heat arrives, some early flowering perennials have finished blooming and your outdoor space may need some colour. Get inspired by our favourite summer blooming perennials.
Many of these summer blooming perennials can be planted from spring to autumn so keep an eye out when you are visiting the garden centres.
After planting, be sure to water two to three times a week thoroughly. Adjust watering according to drought and rain conditions. The best time to water is in the morning or late in the day to avoid evaporation. A one-inch layer of bark mulch can stop moisture loss and help keep the soil cool.
After that, sit back and enjoy your summer garden.
