Most flower gardens look brilliant for about six weeks and then go quiet. Getting colour to carry from spring through to autumn is less about buying more plants and more about choosing ones that take turns. Here you’ll find guides to the flowers worth growing, honest picks for sun, shade, and pots, planting combinations that hold together, and how to grow enough to cut and bring indoors.
