What flowers bloom in winter
If you want to know what flowers bloom in winter and some small experiences in maintaining the green plants of the eight most common flowers in winter, please correct me if there are any mistakes!
The temperature here is dropping every day, and people are wrapped in thick cotton padded jackets. Many flowers and plants have entered a dormant period, and the ground is covered with fallen leaves. This season is a bit desolate, and without any flowering plants at home, it's easy to feel a bit cold and lonely.
Today, I will recommend some cold-resistant plants that bloom even when it's cold, so you can enjoy these flowers in winter without any problems.
1. Hellebore
Many people may not have heard of this flower. This hellebore is not that hellebore. Hellebore is also known as Jiu Niu Qi, Yuan Yang Qi, etc., and belongs to the Ranunculaceae family. It usually blooms around Christmas, with flowers as beautiful as roses, hence it is also called "Christmas Rose".
Hellebore is cold-resistant and can withstand temperatures as low as -20 degrees Celsius, blooming proudly in the snow and ice. The plant is relatively short, with dark green leaves, and both the flowers and leaves are unique, making it a popular variety in winter.
Hellebore prefers a shady and moist environment, dislikes dry and cold conditions, and needs to be shaded in the summer. It is also fond of water, so watering should be timely during maintenance.
2. Ornamental kale
In a strict sense, it cannot be considered a flowering plant, but even its leaves are as beautiful as any flowering plant, earning the nickname "Leaf Peony". The name itself suggests how beautiful it is, comparable to peonies. But it can actually bloom.

In terms of cold resistance, viola is more cold-resistant than Viola tricolor. Viola tricolor can withstand 0 degrees, while viola can withstand -3 degrees. For the maintenance of herbaceous flowers, it is necessary to continuously pinch the flower buds in the early stage to let the plant grow large and full, so that the flowers will bloom more profusely in the later stage.
4. Hosta
Hosta can withstand temperatures as low as -15 degrees Celsius and usually blooms from July to August. The flowers come in pure white and romantic purple, although it does not bloom in winter, its leaves also have high ornamental value, with various colors and patterns.
