The 3 most beautiful spring flowers
Spring in the garden means colorful blooms and a variety of ways to fill the garden with life.
Tulips are a classic that bloom in many bright colors, but also in delicate pastel shades. They require well-drained soil and a sunny to partially shaded location and typically bloom in April and May.
Daffodils are also very popular and grow best in a sunny to semi-shady position. These easy-care flowers should be planted 10-15 cm deep and can be planted in groups.
Crocuses, which are the first flowers of the year to appear, provide early spring magic. They prefer a sunny to semi-shady location and should be planted about 5-10 cm deep. They provide a wonderful first impression of spring.
Shrubs and perennials for spring
In spring, various shrubs and perennials come into bloom, filling the garden with life and color.
Depending on the variety, violets bloom from March in white, pink, yellow, purple and blue. They grow to a height of around 15 to 20 centimeters. A spot in partial shade and moist, nutrient-rich soil are ideal.
Forsythia prefers a sunny location and well-drained soil. Their bright yellow flowers appear early in spring and make them a real eye-catcher. Regular pruning is important to maintain the joy of flowering.
Lush blooms at height
The blossoms of the Japanese cherry are considered the starting signal for spring. With its lush pink flowers, it looks particularly impressive in the garden. The Japanese flowering cherry only develops its full splendor in full sunlight. They thrive best in humus-rich, deep garden soil without waterlogging.
From the end of April, lilacs will enrich your garden with an incredible abundance of flowers and a unique fragrance. Lilacs grow best in a sunny location with well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. After flowering, lilacs need to be pruned to ensure they continue to flower profusely.

The best climbing plants for facade design
Climbing plants are also a wonderful way to green facades and bring color and life to the garden or house in spring. They not only provide visual beauty, but also help to cool the outside area. These climbing plants thrive particularly well in spring:
Clematis
Honeysuckle
Ivy
Climbing rose
Care tip: Make sure that climbing plants have the right support to grow healthily and show off their flowers or leaves to their full advantage.

With these tips and careful plant selection, you can prepare your garden perfectly for spring. Bring the colors of spring directly into your garden and create a blooming oasis that not only brings joy to you, but also to bees and other insects!
