There are four variants of the great myrtle, but this one reigns supreme as the favorite! The white color goes with all plants in your garden and adds some contrast with its large blossoms.

Peonies come in many forms, but this variety has got to be one of the most chic. It has large magenta double flowers that will make everyone jealous of your garden.

8. Canary Fubuki Dahlia When you think of a yellow flower, what comes to mind?
It’s probably a daisy rather than a dahlia – but this canary fubuki is the yellow flower of my dreams!

Blue flowers are rare and blue roses are even rarer. This rose is perfect for adding a cool pop of color to a bouquet too.

3. Magic Star Lily
Lilies are one of my favorite flowers because of all the different colors they come in.
The petals exude elegance and drama, from the stripes to their size.
This plant will want to be front and center in your garden, so everyone can behold its multi-petaled triple blossoms! This lily is also long-lasting and easy to care for.
2. Bloom-A-Thon® Lavender Reblooming Azalea
And last but certainly not least, you must check out this unique purple azalea. It is sure to leave its mark because it blooms in spring, summer, AND fall!
That’s three seasons with this gorgeous plant. Who wouldn’t want more opportunities to look at its southern purple blossoms?
We recommend getting a few and building a wall of purple color.
1) Grateful Red Hydrangea This is the perfect flower to be a stunner in your garden or in home made bouquets!
It features large leaves and blossoms that will keep growing all summer long. The red flowers blend well with the white, blues, and yellows of your garden. Blending in is great, but what really makes this plant stand out is that it changes color depending on the soil! Alkaline soils will produce rich, dark pink/red flowers. If red isn’t your thing, good thing it can turn lavender in low ph soils or a deep purple in acidic soils.
This flower obviously had to make the top of the list!
Hopefully, you found the flower of your garden dreams!
