When choosing flowers for a flower bed, you should take into account the climate in your area. Some flowers do not tolerate severe temperature changes, others need a certain humidity, and others need a specific soil condition. Perennial flowers for Siberia, for example, can easily live in any climatic zone, but not every southern plant will survive the season in Siberia. In order not to miscalculate with the choice of colors, let’s look at what unpretentious species will take root in this region.
Low-growing
Low-growing plants look great both in small areas of the flower bed and in large clearings. Frost-resistant varieties include almost all known primroses. Primroses have a long flowering period, so they will decorate your garden all spring season.
They are low, about 10-25 cm, look good when disembarking in a group, often not very good looking in single plantings. The bright colors of the inflorescences are characteristic of the varieties Arctic red, Bicolor calypso, Cherry with a border. If you need more restrained colors, pastel shades, then pay attention to Yellow Eye, Blue, White, Salmon Orange, Apple Blossom, SPRINGTIDE Mix.
Snowdrops certainly suit the inhospitable Siberian climate. The snowdrop snowdrop, among other things, independently dissipates over the site, and the broad-leaved snowdrop with its double flowers will make any flower garden sophisticated. Lilies of the valley and pansies will not only brighten up the spring season with their blooms, but also provide a green carpet for the rest of the year.
The not very popular Chionodox flower blooms with blue or blue bells, very similar to snowdrops. Narrow basal leaves create a “cushion” for inflorescences. The flowering period of hionodoxa is from April to May.
Middle-aged
Flowers and herbs of medium height will help create neat living fences along garden paths or low flower beds. Almost all varieties of tulips experience Novosibirsk weather conditions with ease worthy of envy. Early terry varieties such as Bonanza, Carlton, simple species Brilliant Star, Diana. Due to their height (from 30-40 cm), tulips can be combined into group plantings, or planted singly.
Narcissus also fits perfectly into cold climates. Moreover, it does not need to be dug up every year. It is worth giving preference to tubular (Mount Hood, Beersheba), large-crowned (Helios) or terry (Golden Dukat, Inglescombe, Snowball) varieties.
The reticulated iris, as well as its bearded iris counterpart, is frost-resistant, unpretentious, beautiful during the flowering period. There is also a Siberian variety, which gets along even better with the Siberian climate, decorating flower beds with blue-blue flowers. They will easily survive the cold, adversity, short summer: anemone, chrysanthemum, daylilies, medium-sized varieties of asters, erythronium, panicled hydrangea.
