With Tennessee’s broad seasonal spectrum of 20 degree winters to 90 degree summers, deciphering which plants will stand the test of the elements can be a tricky endeavor. The last thing you want to do is needlessly spend your precious time and money undergoing a trial-and-error planting process.
Still, Nashville’s reliable rainfall months and pleasant temperatures make it a great place to indulge in beautiful landscaping. Here’s a list of plants to adorn your plot year-round:
Flowers
Chrysanthemums
“Mums” are a beautiful hardy plant that comes in an array of bold seasonal colors. These are great for mass planting and adding a bright pop of color to your yard.
Lavender
Lavender is an elegant flower that also happens to be low maintenance. Not only will they enhance the aesthetic of your landscape, but they are drought resistant and can even be harvested and used as an herb.
Asiatic lilies
Lilies are a must-have flower on your Nashville property. Not only are they easy to find and super affordable, but they add a delicate charm to your landscape.
Trees
