If you like to forget to water your flowers, but still want to have a beautiful garden, you should plant these easy-care flowers - we have the top 7.
Not everyone has a green thumb or enough time to take good care of their offspring. So it must have happened to many hobby gardeners that one or the other plant unfortunately died of thirst. In order not to have to do without beautiful flowers in the garden or on the balcony, we have put together the 7 most easy-care flower types for you, which all have one thing in common: They survive and thrive without regular watering and care.
1. Verbena
The flowering plant is well suited for planting in flower pots as well as beds along the way. Even on the hottest days she never lets her head down and loves to be swarmed by butterflies.
Tip: With an insect-friendly seed mix like the Plantura Butterfly Club, you can transform your garden into a real paradise for butterflies.
2. Lavender
The fragrant lavender not only prefers a lot of sun, but also needs little water. The scent is also said to repel mosquitoes. The purple-colored plant offers many advantages for little effort. Bees are also happy if you give lavender a place in your garden or on the balcony.
3. Spider Flowers
The annual spider flower is very hardy. In addition, it also copes well with very dry and arid soil as well as hot summer days. Its nectar attracts butterflies and other insects, and it gives off a strong floral scent. It is also very suitable as a cut flower.
4. Sedum
The sedum does best in a sunny to partially shaded arearaised up. It prefers normal to even dry soil. Its flowers can be very colorful and quite large, reaching 60 to 70 cm in height.
5. Sunflowers
Sunflowers are rightly among the most popular garden flowers: the cheerful, large blossoms make every garden shine. Sunflowers naturally prefer a lot of sun and can also get by with nutrient-poor and dry soil. The sunflower seeds are also a tasty addition that the birds in your garden will appreciate.
6. Busy Lizzies
In contrast to the other flowers that we show you here, the hard-working Lizzie feels most comfortable where it is damp and shady. After planting, the small flowers will soon bloom by themselves and ensure a long-lasting bloom.
7. Marigolds
Marigolds come in a variety of shapes, sizes and bright colors. They like warm and dry conditions and lots of sun. While the slightly larger specimens make beautiful cut flowers, the smaller ones are also ideal for decorating salads - because most marigolds are also edible.
In addition to these flowers, there are other ways to design a garden without much maintenance. Check out this article for our top tips for a low-maintenance garden.
