Perennials with a lot of color

Or would it be better to get the color through annuals mostly

lantana
verbena
indigo
zinnias
Mexican hat
Mexican sunflower
rudbeckia
coneflower
black eyed Susan

and many others. Honestly reseeding annuals are my favorites. They’ll come back every year and spread and you can propogate them all over. Easiest way to quick color is to go get a bag of wildflower seeds

We have several amaryllis in pots that put out large colorful flowers that last a few weeks before fading. They grow from bulbs and will put out more plants as they mature, thus needing to remove the new plants and repot for even more flowers.

The ones we have are bright red and produce 3-4 fist size flowers per stalk.

Believe it or not, aloe vera will put out a large flower stalk, but mainly for plants in the ground or very large pots. The single flower stalk gets around 4 ft. tall with coral colored small flowers similar to a trumpet plant.

Begonias flower well as do bougainvillea that do well in hanging baskets.

Most of the above are in pots on my back porch or patio that gets around 5-6 hours of direct sun a day starting in the early a.m. and shaded from around 1 p.m. on.

I add salvia to that list.
Bright red and hummingbirds love 'em

Working on new part of my flower bed where Ida destroyed my beds, fence and tree. I have irises, black n blue salvia, red salvias, chi chi ruelia, lilies, agapanthus, Stella d’oro lilies, yarrow, zinnias, upright verbenas, phlox, and just added dahlias. Seeded some lupines and excited to see if they flower next year. Have few heirloom roses which are pretty carefree. My impatients reseeded and have more than I know what to do with. It’s all good and my enjoyment.
