Annual Summer Flowers – A Season-long Symphony of Colour and Bloom
When the garden bursts into full bloom from May to October, it's usually thanks to them: annual summer flowers, which enchant the season with their vibrant colours, vigorous growth and stunning diversity. Few things are as easy to sow and as instantly rewarding – whether in a colourful flowerbed, a romantic cottage garden or an abundant balcony display.
Annual flowers begin to bloom just a few weeks after sowing and then reveal their full beauty – often right up until the first frost. At the same time, they are true shape-shifters in the garden: filling gaps, bringing life and colour to cleared vegetable beds, or spreading through self-seeding to new spots each year – sometimes in the most unexpected places. This way, a fresh and dynamic garden picture emerges with every new season.

Whether you're looking for flowers for annual borders or vibrant summer flower mixes, you'll find tried-and-tested favourites alongside more unusual varieties. Many of them attract bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects, and combine beautifully with vegetables or herbs.
Sowing is usually done directly outdoors from April or May, often without the need for pre-growing. Many varieties are also suitable for pots, containers or balcony planters. Even the smallest space can become a sea of blooms – for a season filled with colour, fragrance and life.
