Hydrangeas

One of the potentially frustrating parts of having a new garden is waiting for it to fill in. Depending on what you purchase, you might end up with a bunch of small plants and a lot of blank space around them — and that's okay! Many perennials are small when first planted and can take some time to grow. I always recommend investing in perennial plants and shrubs for a new garden even though it might cost a little more at the outset.

Many perennials are best planted in the spring, and not in mid-summer when the conditions are hottest. However lots of sales happen throughout the summer and early fall, and you can still plant your garden then — you just need to pay close attention to the plants until they're established . Another thing to consider is having blooms throughout the entire growing season. That means choosing plants that deliver their flowers in the spring and ones that save their show for fall, too. This can help make a garden look more full. Fast-growing groundcovers are great for filling in spaces around younger perennials.Also known as Stonecrops, sedum plants are great drought-tolerant choices for any garden. These plants enjoy full sun spots in the garden.
