What flower blooms 365 days a year?
Geraniums owe their popularity to their intense colors. Notably, they’re also very easy to take care of: During summer you should water it every day, while in winter every third day is sufficient. Add fertilizer once a month to promote its flowering and you’ll be able to enjoy its blooms 365 days a year. Because geraniums are tender perennials and not annuals like most summer ornamentals, they can be overwintered or propagated from cuttings. Here are some easy ways to keep geraniums through the winter for a head start on blooms next spring. Before the first frost, you can pot-up the plants or take cuttings.
What is the longest flowering summer flower?
Geranium. Probably one of the longest flowering garden plants, hardy geraniums start flowering around May, and continue to October, depending on the variety. One of the longest flowering varieties is Geranium ‘Johnson’s blue’ (illustrated) which is also attractive to bees. The anthurium is the world’s longest blooming plant. Native to tropical environments, these plants are easy to care for and are popular for their bright flowers, which come in a variety of colors – red, pink and orange. Each anthurium flower spike can last up to eight weeks.TIL The flower that takes the longest to bloom is a rare species of giant bromeliad, Puya raimondii, native to the mountains of Bolivia. On average it takes between 80-150 years to bloom, though one specimen planted by UC Berkeley only took 28 years to bloom.
