2. Hydrangea
Hydrangea is inexpensive, comes in many varieties, and has a rich range of colors. Any flower grower would choose to grow hydrangeas because they produce flower buds in spring and continue to bloom until summer arrives. After the flowers fade, cut them back strongly, and they will bloom again the following year. They are also very easy to care for. Remember that most hydrangea varieties should not be pruned in autumn. Don't prune in spring and autumn, but you can prune at will in other seasons. Use high-phosphorus fertilizer like potassium dihydrogen phosphate before flowering to promote bud differentiation. At other times, use a multi-element fertilizer with balanced nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Provide some sunlight but avoid direct midday sun. As long as the pot soil doesn't lack water, it will grow and bloom normally.
3. Sunflower
Sunflower, also known as purslane, is called "不死花" (imiortelle) and is very easy to care for. Just cut a stem a few centimeters long and plant it in the soil, and it will survive. Nowadays, sunflowers are not just the single-petaled ones we know. Most people who like sunflowers grow the double-petaled ones, which come in many colors. You can grow multi-colored double-petaled sunflowers in one pot. They are easy to care for, not picky about soil, and just need plenty of sunlight, regular fertilizer, and some watering to bloom normally. But remember to keep the temperature above 10 degrees to avoid frostbite. If the temperature is above 15 degrees and there is plenty of sunlight, it will bloom continuously, with flowers all year round.
