Welcoming Spring: How to Refresh Your Space with Flowering Plants

Yes we all eagerly await the return of vibrant blooms and warmer temperatures after the long winter months. Nature uses flowering plants to announce the arrival of spring. As the gloomy winter days pass, adding some blooming annuals and perennials is a simple way to greet spring and lift your spirits. For all plant lovers out there, we will share some simple plant ideas you can use indoors or outdoors to refresh your space and take advantage of Mother Nature's beautiful Spring blooms.

Put potted tulips on your front porch or patio

Tulips are one of the first spring flowers to bloom. What’s the best thing is that you can find them now in bulb form to plant. Plant some tulip bulbs in small pots and place them around your front porch or patio. As they start to bloom, they will brighten up the area outside your home. You can even group several pots together for a bigger impact. When they are done flowering, you can plant the bulbs in your garden.

Try pussy willow branches in a vase

If you happen to see pussy willow branches for sale now, pick some up for a unique spring decoration or just order a spring flower delivery. Pussy willows have furry gray catkin flowers before the leaves come out. Put cut pussy willow branches in a vase and display them on a table or shelf. Their unusual fuzzy blooms are very eye-catching and help represent the change in season.

Surprise family and friends with hyacinth gifts

If you need a little gift idea for friends, family members or teachers, hyacinth bulbs make a nice present that keeps on giving once the recipient plants them. Hyacinths come in many nice colors and their sweet fragrance fills the space around them indoors or out once they bloom. You can find small pots with gift tags or as spring floral arrangements to make it easy to give as a thoughtful spring gift.

Plant primrose along your front walkway

Primroses are hardy spring flowering perennials that come in many bright colors at many flower shops in Atlanta. Plant some primrose flowers along your front walkway leading up to your home. As the blooms open, they will add cheerful pops of color that you and visitors will enjoy each time they walk up to your house in springtime. The flowers also attract bees and butterflies once they emerge from winter.

Try forget-me-nots in a window box

If you have a window box or planter outside a window, forget-me-nots are perfect for that spot. These petite blue blooms will cascade over the edges of the planter as they spread. Their delicate flowers look lovely against green foliage.
