How do I create a three-season garden?
By Bob Millaway, South Jersey Community Expert & REALTOR®
Choose a mix of plants that bloom at different times: spring bulbs like daffodils and tulips, summer perennials like coneflowers and black-eyed Susans, and fall bloomers like asters, sedum, and ornamental grasses. Include evergreens for winter structure. Stagger planting times and deadhead spent flowers to extend bloom periods across the growing season.
Why It Matters
A three-season garden gives you color and interest from spring through fall, maximizing your enjoyment of your outdoor space.
