Summer Flowers
This path of purple wildflowers looks like an absolute dream! Did you know that wildflowers are the most low maintenance flower when grown in their native area? If you have a green thumb but are getting a little worn out with having to look after your plants all the time, try planting wildflowers instead. They’ll be sure to thrive, whether you give them attention or not!
There’s something about sunflowers and summer that make the pair a perfect match. Just like we want to try and get the most sun as we can during the summer months, so do sunflowers! In fact, they even follow the sun across the sky from east to west as the day progresses. How cool is that?
Wishing on dandelions isn’t only for kids. Take your time this summer to pick some of these unique wildflowers and make a few wishes.

That’s a long way to ensure your wish comes true!
Be sure to decorate your home with potted flowers to keep the feel of summer going even after you get home.
Roses are the ideal gift, no matter the occasion or season. Roses can live for years if well taken care of and kept put in the ground. They also can grow to be taller than you think. The tallest recorded rose bush stands at over 23 feet! That’s makes it a bit hard to stop and smell the roses.
Tulip fields paint a gorgeous picture of summertime. They might be so gorgeous because they are known for their nearly perfect symmetry and very bold colors.
