Most winter flowers should be planted in the fall, while the soil is still warm, to give them time to take root before the cold weather sets in.
4 species of flowers that like the cold
There are some flowers with a special affinity for winter and here are some of them:
1. Perfect love
In many locations, these charming little “faced” flowers will survive into late fall or early winter as they tolerate cold temperatures and come in all shades of the rainbow.
Although often considered annuals, certain varieties produce seeds and come back the following spring.
2. Primula
These beautiful perennial flowers are quite cold hardy. Depending on where you live, they bloom in late winter or early spring. Look for the varieties that may last longer in your area, as there are many different types.
She is available in several vibrant colors such as yellow, orange, purple and pink and prefers cooler temperatures and partial shades.
3. Cyclamen
Cyclamen is considered a houseplant, but it actually works well as a perennial groundcover in warmer climates. Plant it under deciduous trees (those that lose their leaves) to get sun in the winter and shade in the summer.
It has delicate and beautiful flowers, which can be found in different shades of pink, white and red.
4. poppies
Plant poppy seeds outdoors in autumn or winter and wait for their sunny blooms to grace the garden.
Poppies are one of those unusual plants that thrive when exposed to cold weather. They like direct sunlight, frequent watering, and soil that drains well.
