The beauty of annuals in your garden is that they never stop blooming and can be customized from year to year. Here at Wiesner Bros. Nursery we carry a large variety of different types of annuals, but as with most varieties of plants, there are some that we prefer to others. Outlined in this article are our favorites year after year.
Sun Tolerant
Dusty Miller- Planted for its vibrant white foliage color. Does not flower, but is very hardy and can be perennial in many cases.
Petunia- Sports a very attractive trumpet like flower which will provide continue blooms. Occasional dead- heading will help produce more blooms.
Marigold- A sturdy flower which comes in shades of yellows and oranges and everything in between. Dead heading is recommended for more bud production.
Shade Tolerant
Begonia- Probably the most constant, repetitive bloomer of all the annuals we carry, does great in sun and shade and are very little maintenance.
Coleus- Quite a head turner when fully mature, these are planted for their leaf color rather then their flower. Come in an array of colors from deep red to bright neon yellow.
New Guinnea Impatient- Comes in a very wide spectrum of vibrant colors. Hot pinks and deep purples really bring a special element to your garden.
