Flowers add beauty and charm to any location, whether it is a park, garden or a simple balcony. They can be cultivated for their appearance, fragrance, or therapeutic qualities and they can be used to cover entire areas with their colors or just to bring a smile on the face of a person receiving a lovely bouquet.
Flowering plants can grow from seeds or bulbs; those that need bulbs to develop are known as bulbous plants. The most common bulbous plants cultivated today are tulips, daffodils, hyacinths and alliums. They come in a variety of colors and are appropriate for any region with a temperate climate.
Tulips are usually associated with Holland, although they are native to Asia. They are beautiful plants with up to six leaves, a cup-shaped flower that can feature a high number of colors and a long life, when compared to other plants. Tulips bloom in the summertime and hold their flowers for entire weeks.
Daffodils are flowering plants native to Europe and West Asia and that bloom in springtime. Daffodils are also known as narcissus, feature a combination of white and yellow and are surrounded by up to six leaves. They are a popular plant in gardens and parks, as well as in floral centerpieces used at weddings or other formal parties.
Hyacinths feature probably the most fragranced flowers of all the bulbous plants mentioned here. Hyacinths have dense flowers and depending on their color are associated with constancy, loveliness, and playfulness. No wonder hyacinths were appreciated by the Greek god Apollo, who was the god of music, poetry and art.
Alliums are flowering plants included in the same family as the onion and garlic. Alliums are cultivated for their beauty and used as ornamental plants and also food plants. In general, they are grown in the northern hemisphere, although any area with a temperate climate is appropriate for them.
