As you know, depending on the season and the climate where we live, it will be preferable that we grow some plants rather than others. Thus, in spring and summer bulbs such as daffodils or tulips are advisable. On the contrary, in winter perennials are recommended, such as holly.
To create a garden, it is absolutely essential to know the type of climate that surrounds you. If you live in a hot area, you should, of course, grow plants suitable for hot climates, with high temperatures and little rain. Here are some ideas.
Spice
Herbaceous plants such as rosemary, basil, parsley or oregano are ideal for hot weather, as they grow wonderfully under the sun’s rays. In addition, they give off a very pleasant aroma that will leave the garden fragrant.
flowers
Of course, there are also flowering plants for the hottest season. The hybrid verbena, for example, is perfect for warm climates, but needs a drained soil and regular watering.
The marigold is also highly recommended, especially for Mediterranean areas, because he loves the sun.
For its part, the hybrid petunia withstands both low and high temperatures.
Lavender
We also want to emphasize lavender, a perfect plant for Mediterranean gardens, to cover unpleasant slopes or to border sunny walks. This species offers bouquets of blue and fragrant flowers that will leave a fresh perfume. Of course, it is important to avoid clay and compact soils.
Geraniums
We could not say goodbye without talking about the geranium, the quintessential plant in hot climates. Coming from the hot and dry areas of southern Africa, this pretty plant requires full sun exposure. In general, it does not like drafts, shady places, or artificial light.
