Flowers in APRIL – Spring splendour for Easter
When the days get longer again and the first rays of sunshine sparkle playfully through the branches, April heralds the arrival of spring. At Easter, you will particularly enjoy delicate pastel shades, which transform tables, window sills and gardens into cheerful scenes. The selection of spring flowers is diverse and allows for creative arrangements that make your home inviting.
Tulips are a must-have for this season. Their elegant, upright shape and wide range of colours make them a classic in spring bouquets. Daffodils are also popular, their yellow and white flowers reminiscent of sunny days. Hyacinths not only bring colour into the house, but also an intense fragrance. Crocuses and snowdrops, on the other hand, welcome you to the flower beds and add small splashes of colour to bare ground.
Primroses and pansies score points with their robustness and bright colours. They are ideal for balcony boxes and tub planting. Forget-me-nots enchant with delicate blue flowers and romantic flair, while lilac bushes spread their characteristic scent towards the end of the month. Combine different heights and flower shapes to create varied arrangements that also look stunning in a vase.
For Easter, branches of forsythia or cherry blossoms are also ideal. Place colourful eggs among the fresh greenery or arrange small Easter figures. This creates a harmonious overall picture that will delight visitors and family alike. Treat yourself to this festival of colours and let the splendour of spring blossom in your home.
BROOM
Broom is known for its bright yellow, fragrant flowers, which usually bloom in spring. In many European gardens, you will find common broom, which is characterised by its compact growth and different flower colours. Broom captivates with its fragrance in any bouquet.
PHLOX
Phlox is a versatile genus of plants belonging to the Polemoniaceae family. With their dense clusters of flowers in bright colours such as pink, white, purple and red, phlox species add attractive accents to flower beds, rock gardens and balconies. The different growth forms range from low ground cover plants to tall perennials.
CARNATION
Carnations, botanically known as Dianthus, are popular cut flowers that are prized for their delicate flowers and wide range of colours. They include numerous species and many cultivated varieties. Particularly noteworthy is their pleasant fragrance, which creates an atmospheric ambience when grown in beds or pots in the garden.
Flower splendour in April: Which flowers are in bloom and when is it worth giving them as gifts?
Early bloomers and their flowering season
April is when spring shows its colourful side. Tulips usually start to bloom at the beginning of April and delight with a wide range of colours from delicate pastel shades to bright red and yellow. Daffodils are also typical for April and symbolise new beginnings with their sunny flowers. Hyacinths have an intense fragrance and usually bloom in mid to late April, while snowdrops and snowflakes begin to wilt in mild regions at the beginning of the month. (Fritillaria meleagris) or the foxglove(Digitalis) may show their first flowers in April, depending on the weather. Primroses and forget-me-nots are suitable for both gardens and pots and usually bloom throughout the month, provided the temperatures do not rise too high.
Occasions and gift ideas
Giving flowers as gifts in April is particularly worthwhile at Easter: a colourful bouquet of tulips combined with daffodils and hyacinths is perfect for cheerful holiday decorations. Your guests or the recipients of your gifts will also be delighted on Mother's Day, which takes place at the end of May, when the primroses and pansies planted in April are still blooming beautifully as potted gifts.
For birthday boys and girls in April, a floral greeting message made of tulips and daffodils is recommended, as these flowers radiate elegance and freshness. When putting together your arrangement, make sure to combine different heights and flower shapes to create a harmonious look. If you want to leave a lasting impression, flower bulb gifts in decorative baskets are a great option, as they can be planted in the garden later on.
