Meet the flowers that bloom in the winter season
Winter, often associated with dormancy in nature, surprises us with a breathtaking spectacle as several plants bloom during the season. A variety of plants defy the cold temperatures and burst into vibrant colors, transforming the winter landscape into a tapestry of hues. An amazing range of colors, sizes, and forms is one of the benefits of these seasonal flowering plants.
Viola
Even in a light covering of snow or frost, violas will continue to bloom. They typically bloom throughout winter in temperate areas. The bright flowers have a similar range of eye-catching color combinations as pansies, although they are smaller and more delicate. Wait until autumn to plant violas and enjoy them through the winter before they wither away in the summer heat.
Alyssum
With its carpet-like flowering branches, this low-growing shrub will cover your yard with blooms. The charming white hue lends a peaceful element, while the fragrant honey intensifies your garden's meditative aura. It is among the greatest winter flowering plants since it requires very little maintenance and can withstand drought. Alyssum thrives in India's winter conditions.
Aster
Asters are star-shaped perennial flowers that range in color from white to blue to purple and resemble daisies. Asters are those beautiful flowers that bloom late in the season with purple or blue blooms. Climates with cool, rainy summers and exceptionally cold nights are preferred by asters. They can be left in direct sunlight too, but the pot must have well-draining soil.
Dahlia
Indian winters showcase the brilliant bloom of dahlias, boasting a diverse range of flower forms and vivid hues. These flowers come in various sizes and serve as captivating focal points in gardens, adding vibrancy to the winter scenery when nurtured properly. Dahlias thrive with at least six hours of direct daylight, particularly relishing the early morning sun.
Antirrhinum
Known by its common name, snapdragon, these hardy, naturally occurring winter flowering plants are renowned as dog plants in India. The white and reddish-yellow blossoms can also be used as decorations. The flower's name comes from its likeness to the mouth of a dragon. The optimal conditions for snapdragon blooms are chilly, late spring or early summer temperatures and well-drained, wet soil.
