Heliotrope just prefers full sun to partial shade and well-drained, fertile soil. It is relatively low-maintenance but benefits from regular watering and occasional feeding.
Deadheading the spent blooms will also encourage continuous flowering throughout the season. In colder climates, you may want to consider growing heliotrope in pots as well so they can be moved indoors during the winter months.
Chocolate Daisy
Chocolate daisies make for delightful surprises in any garden, offering cheerful yellow flowers and an unexpected chocolate scent.
This fragrance is especially strong in the morning, too, making it a wonderful way to start your day.
Plus, these daisies are hardy and easy to grow, thriving in full sun and well-drained soil. They are drought-tolerant once they’re established and require minimal maintenance.
Regular deadheading will help encourage more blooms, and occasional watering during any dry spells will keep them happy. Chocolate daisies are also excellent for attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies.
Carnation
When it comes to carnations, these flowers are beloved for their ruffled petals and spicy, clove-like fragrance. They also come in a variety of colors, including pink, red, white, and yellow, adding a nice splash of color to your garden.
To grow carnations, you should choose a sunny spot that has well-drained soil. These flowers also prefer cooler temperatures and can be grown as perennials in mild climates.
Regular watering and feeding will help encourage healthy growth and abundant blooms. Additionally, pinching back the stems will promote bushier plants and more flowers.
