For true connoisseurs of the music of flowers, it is enough to look at this natural masterpiece in order to imagine and create with their own eyes the magic of unearthly perfection, combining style, shape, color and sound together.

Unpretentious spring flowers

Inexperienced gardeners are concerned about the question - what unpretentious flowers to plant in the country, so that with the onset of the first warm weather, with their flowering, they announce the arrival of Spring, filling the soul and heart with joy?

After all, the arrival of heat, especially in the Russian middle lane, is often delayed. Seeds of annual flowers have not yet been thrown into the ground. And perennials are just beginning to break through the unheated earth.

But you should not be upset - bulbous crops have already formed future buds since autumn and with the onset of spring they will color the flower beds with a rainbow spectrum.

On the first thawed patches, with gentle rays of the spring sun, white, blue, yellow and striped corollas will appear on your site - this is how they bloom.

These primroses will delight the owners all spring, and then they retire until the next favorable time.

In height, they vary significantly - from seven to fifteen centimeters.

From the beginning of April to the end of May, low ones bloom - up to 20 centimeters, tender. Their stems are crowned with graceful inflorescences that figuratively resemble bells.

Mouse hyacinth, also called muscari, is rightfully included in the TOP of the most unpretentious garden and country crops.

Once planting a bulb under the crown of a tree or, for example, next to a lilac bush, you will meet spring with this amazing flower for many years.

You can update or thin out muscari with the onset of summer - in June. But only when you see that the blue color and its elongated leaves have faded.

A small reminder - during the period of vital activity, the plant needs additional soil moisture. On this, the chores are practically pumped out, leaving some advantages: an excellent neighborhood with other colors and unpretentious care.

It is hard to imagine a suburban "residence" without these flowers, striking in their tenderness and simplicity. Perhaps it is they, well, perhaps even tulips, that are the hallmark of spring.

A place for growing daffodils should be saturated with minerals - this is ideal. In addition, they are very unpretentious to lighting. And they feel comfortable both in the bright sun and in a slightly shaded place, hiding under the crown of blossoming trees.

Narcissus is harmonious flower. It cohabitates and decorates amicably, growing with bergenia, tulip, various garden, dicentra and other plants.

Over time, they form a snow-white carpet with yellow patches, which looks very impressive.

As necessary, it can be thinned out by transplanting the bulbs to another place. But it is advisable to do this after a decrease in their vital activity - somewhere in the beginning of summer.

Frosty winters narcissus endure relatively calmly. But if in the spring you notice some bare areas, then in the summer they can be planted with young bulbs.
