Immortality iris
A pure iris with a lemon beard, it does well to live up to its name. Most irises only bloom once but not immortality iris, it reblooms a month after most irises cannot be spotted. Its second bloom isn’t slow or daunted but full out proud and it can rebloom even in mid-west and northeast climes, making it one of America’s best flowers. It blooms once in early summer and then again in late summer.
Stargazer lily
No list of ‘Best flowers’ can ever be complete without including these beautiful oriental lilies. Simply breathtaking, it is a boldly colored crimson flower with petals which are edged in white. Just as the heat of the summer is dehydrating all the other flowers in your garden, this beautiful flower will unfurl its 6-inch petals. It is a very fragrant flower, so you can even cut some and bring them inside the house to reward yourself for stepping out into the garden in such scorching heat. Plant them about a foot apart, in the fall.
Jasmine
The first thing that attracts anybody about this beautiful flower is its haunting fragrance. One of the most fragrant flowers in the world, it gives your garden an edge simply by carrying that sweet fragrance and just when you are planning for the torturous winter to set in at that. This flower can also be grown indoors in little baskets which you can hang up on a door or a wall. It grows well in a cool spot and doesn’t require too much water. It cascades downwards so if you are planning to plant this in your garden, make sure it’s on an arbor or a wall.
Dahlia
The ‘Bishop of llandaff Dahlia’ to be more precise. Even if you found Dahlias a little too tacky for your liking, this one will definitely change that, its mahogany colored flowers are in bloom almost all the time making it a rare visual treat. However it is a tad expensive and comes with the usual ‘curse’ of the Dahlias, that of digging it up in most climates and storing it in a box otherwise it’ll not be worth the investment.
Fusilier Tulip
This one is one of the multi flowering species of Tulips, which bears 5-6 flowers on a single stem. I is a vivid orange in color and blooms by early may. Unlike regular Tulips it doe not come with the customary long slender stems. Definitely one of the best flowers to grow in your garden.
