Denver’s Best Flower and Plant Selection!

Bright, colorful annual flowers keep landscapes in Denver looking their best during spring, summer, and fall! At City Floral Garden Center, we offer exciting annual plants and expert advice so you can bring your garden to life!

So Many Annual Flowers for You!

Flowers that are known as annuals complete their growing cycle, from seed to flower to seed, in one growing season. Unlike their perennial partners, annual plants last just a single season and are enjoyed outdoors during spring, summer, and fall.

Annuals put on a particularly beautiful show in any garden or patio during the warmer weather months. They provide non-stop flowers and color. Most annuals are planted in the middle of May once the chance of a snowstorm has passed. Although, annuals can also be planted throughout the summer and will bloom until the first frost. Annuals are versatile and make wonderful bedding plants, window box arrangements, and patio pots or seasonal container plants.

City Floral prides itself on a terrific selection of annual flowers and plants! From rows of colorful petunias to pretty impatiens to bright geraniums, we have 8 greenhouses and a large patio completely stocked with every color and variety of annuals!

How to Care for Annual Plants & Flowers

Colorado’s warm days and cool nights are certainly a great blend to keep your annual plants happy.

To get the most out of your annual flowers, choose a well-draining potting soil or amend your soil when planting in the ground. Make sure you are choosing an annual that will perform in the amount of sun that you have. Certain plants thrive in our intense Colorado sun and others are suited for morning sun or shade. Visit City Floral for a recommendation. Give plants some space for room to grow and water well after planting.

Once your annual flowers bloom, many varieties of annuals require that you pinch off old flowers (called deadheading) to encourage the growth of more blooms without the plant setting seed. Some newer annuals have been hybridized to keep blooming without deadheading! Keep an eye on the soil dryness and, in the hot Denver sunshine, you often need to water the soil every day or multiple times per week in the peak of summer.

Fertilization is key to getting the most out of your annuals.  For plants to keep producing beautiful blooms, they need to be fed. We recommend you fertilize your annual plants and flowers at the time of planting with a slow-release fertilizer. For extra pop, you can add a water-soluble bloom boost fertilizer to feed those beautiful flowers!
