Summer is finally here! Warm weather, blooming summer flowers and growing plants - What more could you want? Some of our favourite flowers here at Shalimar bloom in the summer sun. Let us enlighten you on what are the best in season, summer flowers, that you should bring into your home. 

Delphinium 

🌼These flowers are commonly added to bouquets, adding some height with their tall blooming stalks. It is a symbol of positivity and openness, making the flowers great to send to someone to brighten their day. The flower comes in a variety of colours, including blue, white, pink and light blue. 

Hibiscus

🌼Hibiscus are a very popular summer flower, blooming in mid to late summer. They come in a variety of colours, such as white, pink, red and lavender.  They grow in the form of a large trumpet shape and are unscented, which is perfect for someone who just wants flowers for decoration and isn’t crazy about scent.

Gladiolus 

🌼Belonging to the Iris family, these flowers will bloom right through summer into autumn! In fact, it is the birth flower of August. It is commonly described as a flowering spike, reaching from 2 to 3 feet in height. The gladiolus represents honour and remembrance. 

Begonias 

🌼Begonias commonly bloom in June and cease with the first frost. The begonia is a popular flower to grow as they are easy to grow and maintain, and can be grown both indoors and outdoors. A fun fact about begonias is that they are related to pumpkins, cucumbers and melons!
