In April, the weather in Southwest Missouri is suitable for planting a variety of flowers.
Here are some options you can consider:
Marigolds:
Known for their vibrant colors and pest-repellent properties.
Purple Coneflowers (Echinacea purpurea):
These hardy flowers are drought tolerant and attract pollinators with their purple daisy-like blooms.
Virginia Bluebells (Mertensia virginica):
These produce lovely trumpet shaped blue flowers and are perfect for areas with some shade.
Butterfly Weed (Asclepias tuberosa):
This sun-loving plant attracts butterflies with its clusters of orange flowers.
Bugleweed (Ajuga reptans ‘Catlin’s Giant’):
A great ground-cover option that provides a carpet of color with its tiny flower spikes.
Remember to choose plants that are well-suited to your garden’s specific conditions, such as soil type and sunlight availability.
