The garden specialist has revealed what plants can bloom beautifully and last for many years while not breaking the bank
A gardening expert has shared their favourite plants that can bloom for years and require little-to-no work. For many green-fingered people, gardening is a relaxing pastime, but it still takes a lot of effort.
Some will still eventually decline after a few seasons unless gardeners intervene, but others can last for decades without needing much care if any at all. According to Blythe, some perenials like peonies and Iris can last for up to half a century if left untouched. To keep peony flowers from toppling over when the plant is blooming, gardeners can add grid stakes around them. Siberian and African irises are two species that will persist in gardens with little attention.
Despite those flowers lasting longer during the season, once they fade away from the garden, they’ll be gone for good. Blythe explained to Real Simple: “Perennials typically have a shorter bloom cycle than annuals.”
