Flower gardening in Ontario adds colour and fragrance to your garden. Many flowers thrive in Ontario’s unique climate and soil. From robust perennials to delicate annuals, every gardener can appreciate a flower. When planning an Ontario flower garden, keep soil type, sun exposure, and moisture in mind. Some flowers prefer moist, rich soil, while others require well-drained soil. Choose the right flowers for your environment to ensure that your garden thrives and blooms all season.
Popular Ontario garden flowers include black-eyed Susans, coneflowers, daylilies, petunias, marigolds, and zinnias. Hydrangeas and lilacs are lovely shrubs and trees. The beauty of flowers attracts pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Creating a nectar-rich garden can benefit both pollinators and the environment.
