what kind of plants work well in all day sun and have a long bloom time?

Question

I am going to plant some flowers in the front of my house in a flowerbed. The front of my house has full time sunshine; it is never in the shade, except at night.

Answer 1

Depending of what type of plants you are looking for I have listed below different types that when you mix and match from each will create a stunning show, especially if you plant annuals and perennials near each other. That way when the annuals are in full bloom the perennials can get ready for their late spring to late fall show usually after the annuals have faded out.
Annuals, compact or tall plants: Marigold and geranium (both help to keep bugs and slugs away), petunia, dusty miller, nicotina (flowering tobacco, hummingbirds and bees love this and is pretty believe it or not!), sunflowers (there are MANY varieties, my fave is the mexican sunflower, is has a beautiful orange/rusty color), and salvia (the blue is nice) just to name a few.
Annuals, vining/trailing plants: Wave petunias (planted in bunches of 3-4 will create a lovely 3-6 ft display!), lantana, verbena, trailing dusty miller (comes in much prettier varieties than the compact one listed above), trailing new guinea impatiens (as long as you give them enough water morning and night).
Perennials, compact and/or tall: Shasta daisy (many varieties), columbine (lovely delicate looking, hummingbird and bee love), iris, lily, cone flower (echinacia), red hot poker (unusual, nice in bunches, hummers and bees), cornflower, cupid's dart (reseeds like crazy and will take over bed in a couple of summers), black eyed susan (sometimes reseeds, why I listed it here), dianthis, monkshood (beautiful deep purple blooms, but poisonous so don't plant where kids or animals play), and many, many more.
Perennials, vining or groundcovers: Some favorites of mine are stone crop, sedum, hens and chicks, akebia, honeysuckle (more of a shrub because of it's woody base and stems once established), and trumpet vine (will reach amazing lengths and heights if using a trellis).

Answer 3

i'm hoping those 6 hours of direct photograph voltaic are from the morning. they don't in basic terms like the afternoon direct solar. often in case you spot bloom it does not take long to bloom. they desire the warmth, the solar and the water... careful on that water on a daily basis except your in a drought section. yet another indication that your plant is healthy, your leaves seems great...it rather is common in basic terms wait and see! And sorry however the flower in basic terms final at some point.
