How Do You Really Grow Flowers In Florida?
Unfortunately for unsuspecting gardeners, garden centers sell plants that just die in the heat. I can help weed out the problem plants and help you plant what will thrive in Central Florida. Central Florida has its own set of rules for growing beautiful flowers and gardens. First you must learn which plants for which season. We will start with spring and summer seasons. Cassia is a wonderful example of what can be grown very easily from seed in any hot climate. It is often referred to as Candlebush because the huge yellow flowers resemble candles. Once grown, its flowers make seeds that can be seeded elsewhere and oftentimes it will send its seeds flying to pop up anywhere and everywhere. Seeds can be purchased online at Seedrack.com I will warn you that it does get quite large. I have often had them as high as 10 feet tall and 10 feet wide. It is not for the small garden, but if you have plenty of room it is so lovely. Just plant the seeds where they will have plenty of room to grow.
