Flowering Plants to Plant in Early Spring for Winter Blooms
If you want to add some color to your landscape, but aren't sure if there is any flower that will bloom in that time frame, then this article may help. Below are the winter-blooming options you can plant in spring.
Pieris Japonica
- Winter is the best season for Pieris Japonica’s buds. They thrive in cooler climates and prefer the cooler months. Although their blooms begin to develop in late autumn, they do not open until the end of winter (February/early March). These are the times when they start to produce coppery pink clusters of urn-shaped blooms.
Honeywort
- These lovely flowering plants can be found all over the Mediterranean. They are hardy annuals and can be grown in warm climates. You will be rewarded with deeper blue leaves if it is unusually cold.
Kaffir Lily
- These plants produce striking red flowers in the spring and winter. They produce long stalks that are delicately covered with brightly colored leaves. They do not thrive in cold conditions. A temperate climate is ideal for the Kafir Lilly.
Sweet Alyssum
- These delicate flowers can withstand a light frost. These hardy troopers were once used as a treatment for rabies. They can be grown in fall, winter, or early spring. Delicate and beautiful, this ground cover is perfect for any color.
Camellia
- These flowers are beautiful. They can be found in many colors, from white to pink and light pink to crimson. They can flower continuously throughout winter. The best conditions for producing the best results are those in warm climates. For the most beautiful flowers to grow, they require four to six hours of sunshine.
Honeysuckle
- This scent is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful winter scents. This flower is a rare find in terms of beauty and perfume. The stunning climbing vine is a delight. It has very few negatives. These plants produce creamy-white flowers during winter. They have a lemony aroma. Some areas will see these flowers bloom from November through April.
Holly Bushes
- These brightly colored redberries can be recognized as holiday decorations. These berries are not edible. In spring, this bush will also bear small white flowers.
Witch Hazel
- This is a prolific, shaggy, and spidery orange flower. It can be found on a tree branch or a sprout. They are extremely hardy. Witch Hazel adds a bright, colorful touch to any otherwise brown (thanks to snow).
Hellebore
- This is the Christmas Rose, which is its special name. It blooms at the darkest times of the year. It appears just as everything else is freezing. It has a deep-reaching root network. It needs to be protected from winter winds. If you live in warmer climates, Hellebore blooms are visible in the spring and summer.
