When the
first day of spring arrives, the first thing you want to do is head outside and enjoy the warm, sunny weather. And if you’re anything like Ree Drummond, a landscaping plan must include flowers. “I can’t remember a time when I didn’t love flowers,” Ree Drummond admits. “After living in the country with Ladd for the first few years of marriage, my appreciation for flowers went to a whole new level. I gardened, researched seeds, and grew endless varieties of roses, sunflowers, dahlias, zinnias, rudbeckia, and echinacea.” So if you, too, are looking for inspiration, browse these flower bed ideas ahead.
Whether you prefer annuals or perennials or a mix of both, you’ll find fun ideas to trim your space to keep it nice and tidy like rock walls and cute stone paths. You can also repurpose your existing fence as a guide on where to plant! Speaking of repurposing, you’ll find plenty of ideas on using fun decorative items that you might already have. (Just wait until you see the wagon wheel.) There are also ways to add height if you lack space or want to add more like trellises and raised beds, which are also great if your soil quality isn’t quite what it should be. Just make sure you check out your plant hardiness zone before you start (they’ve changed recently, FYI) and refresh your gardening tools. Because while these flower beds are easy to master and help your plants thrive, you want to make sure you’re choosing the right blooms for the job.
