Blueflowers

Types of blue flowers

Perhaps one of the most popular hues among flowers and plants is the color blue. Somehow the rarity it presents in blooms is not that easily found that is why they always make a novel idea and gift. But amidst all that there are still a few types of blue flowers although some would say that they are more on the tone of magenta or violets. But who really cares about the shades as long as we enjoy them in our garden and they make a lovely picture to our homes that would be quite satisfying to me.
I don’t know about you but there is really something in the color that amazes me especially if I see different types of blue flowers spread out in magazines or even in meadows or fields that you pass by. There is something in them that would want to make you come back and try to prove that they are that color maybe because we are not used to seeing them being purchased in flower shops or grown in most gardens. But having them around is simply refreshing to the eyes.
Some say that they would look best as accents in arrangements or even just in your flower beds if you can try to have them near white rose bushes or having certain varieties which can cover the ground and make it seem like you are walking in a landscaped lawn with tiny delicate blue petals at your feet. What a sight that would be. I don’t know about you but I simply love thinking about blue flowers.
Perennials like forget-me-nots have several varieties in this color. There is also the belladonna blue delphinium perennial and the blue blood hardy geranium which you can choose from to grow in your garden. They are simple flowers so you don’t have to worry about taking too much time to tend them. You can also try looking into blue cupid’s darts – catananche which looks a little like daisies but without the globe disk at the center. There is also the blue lady Lenten rose and the Ritz blue pincushion flower which looks like a sunflower with hundreds of tiny light blue stigmas at the center.
There are also bush like types of blue flowers like the adenophora ladybells perennial, the wild indigo baptisia perennial, the aster blue woods, blue star amsonia, the blue moon phlox, the brookside hardy geraniums and the catmint walkers. These types are sturdier looking and would often produce a mass or a bunch of blue blossoms that could easily fill your garden.
Normally all the species and varieties who tends to have produced blue flowers are easy to grow and cultivate so there is really no reason for you to try to cover your lawn with all the shades of blue flowers that you can find. Perennials are among the most adaptive, so there is a bigger chance that they would do well in any type of soil and weather. It would be best to try them out first if you like.
