Dress Up Your Garden or Outdoor Space With Plants for Full sun
Full sun flowers are some of the most beautiful, colorful plants you can grow. Many need six or more hours of sun each day, although some appreciate a little afternoon shade or filtered light in very hot climates. Be sure to check your plants for full sun often to see if they need water.
For added color and interest, mix your full sun plants in a flower container. (They should be able to tolerate full sun.) Flowering shrubs for sun, such as small hydrangeas, annuals that can take the heat, like zinnias and marigolds, and perennials that need sun, like coneflowers, are just a few possibilities. Read on for more sunny suggestions.
