Purple Flowers<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Do you like purple flowers?\u00a0The color purple is a color that attracts a lot of attention.\u00a0Much is used above all for its ability to convey a\u00a0sense of peace and harmony<\/strong>\u00a0, two things that can not be missed in any garden.\u00a0Even in those that only have cactus, a few purple plants can get the place to have that touch that helps you to be relaxed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Would you like to have plants with purple flowers?\u00a0<\/strong>Fortunately, there are many that are easy to get and take care of, such as the more than known\u00a0lavender\u00a0, which is a shrub that is also used in aromatherapy because of the sweet smell of its leaves.\u00a0But this is not the only plant that I am going to suggest …<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saffron<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

SAFFRON WITH PURPLE FLOWERS<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The\u00a0Saffron\u00a0or\u00a0Crocus sativus<\/em>\u00a0is a bulbous plant with purple flowers\u00a0planted in autumn and blooms in spring<\/strong>\u00a0.\u00a0The flowers are quite large if we compare them with the rest of the plant, since they can measure 5-7cm in diameter.\u00a0The leaves are very thin, green, and have a length of 10-15cm.\u00a0It can be located in both direct sunlight and semi-shade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digitalis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Digitalis are biannual plants with violet flowers, that is to say, that their life cycle is completed after two years. It grows to a height of 40-50cm, sometimes reaches 70ccm, and has very curious flowers in the form of a trumpet or thimble<\/strong>\u00a0.\u00a0It is ideal for temperate climates, placing them in an area protected from the direct sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Petunia<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"\n
PETUNIAS<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The petunias are extraordinarily resistant and one of the purple flowers of more intense color.\u00a0It is one of the first to bloom in spring<\/strong> . As it does not grow much-it remains about 30-35cm high-it is perfect to have in a pot. And if the winter is too cold, with temperatures below 5\u00baC, you can choose to buy without problems an envelope of seeds or new specimens in spring, it is very economical. To give you an idea, both the envelopes and the already blooming plants can cost 1 dollar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Osteospermum ecklonis<\/em><\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Known scientifically with the name of Osteospermum ecklonis<\/em>\u00a0, is a perennial herbaceous plant of very fast growth.\u00a0Reaches a height of 40cm, and can be used as floor coverings in gardens with warm or temperate climate.\u00a0She is\u00a0very grateful and adaptable<\/strong>\u00a0, to the point that sometimes she needs pruning to control it.<\/p>\n

We have another article about Osteospermum. Not all Osteospermum varieties are purple.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n


Bougainvillea<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The\u00a0Bougainvillea\u00a0is a deciduous or perennial climbing plant depending on the climate that grows in temperate-warm regions around the world.\u00a0Although what we call flowers are actually bracts (the flower itself is that little white that leaves the center), I think it could not be missing from this list, since the bracts\u00a0sprout in the spring and until autumn does not end its period of flowering.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blue Flag Or Iris Versicolor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"\n
IRIS VERSICOLOR<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The lily, or blue flag, is a rhizomatous plant that is planted in autumn and blooms in spring whose leaves reach a height of about 20-30cm.\u00a0<\/strong>The flowers are grouped in fan-shaped inflorescences and can be of different colors: white, red, pink, … and of course purple.\u00a0It is very resistant and adaptable, being able to cultivate so much inside house as in the garden, in semi-shade or in full sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\n
IRIS GERMANICA<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Liatris spicata<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Liatris is a perennial herbaceous plant whose leaves and flowers emerge from a corm (underground reserve organ) in spring.\u00a0It reaches a height of about 40cm, but undoubtedly\u00a0the most striking are its blue-lilac flowers, which are grouped in spike-shaped inflorescences<\/strong>\u00a0.\u00a0And the most incredible thing is that it is an off-road plant, suitable for beginners, which only needs to be in full sun and little water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"\n
ROSES<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The roses are all wonderful, but having a purple flower in the garden or in a pot is quite an experience.\u00a0There are several that produce flowers of this color, but\u00a0we especially recommend the ‘Purple Dream’ and ‘Rhapsody’<\/strong>\u00a0, the latter as well as being beautiful gives off a very pleasant aroma.\u00a0Like all these plants, they have to be in semi-shade or in full sun and water very often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Myosotis sylvatica<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The\u00a0miosotis\u00a0or forget-me-not is a rhizomatous perennial herb that reaches a height between 20 and 50cm.\u00a0The flowers<\/strong>\u00a0, although they are very small – of hardly 1cm or 1,5cm- and simple composed by five petals,\u00a0are produced in such quantity that sometimes can give the sensation of which they try to hide the leaves<\/strong>\u00a0;\u00a0when?\u00a0During spring.\u00a0It is grown above all as a potted plant, as it is so pretty that you want to have it indoors in a bright room or as part of a colorful flowerbed in the garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
