Flowers That Do Good In Sun

[blackeyed crew7]

thanks for the reply, i had a chance this past weekend to spend some time with my garden. i cut the plants back and did notice some green, minimal however, so maybe there is a chance i can get them back. i will keep my green fingers crossed lol. thank you.

Yeah orchids are among the last things Id plant in a sunny location. I like echinacea (cone flower), sage and yarrow for hot spots. Blanket flower too.

I'm so glad someone asked this question. I'm also in direct sunlight and am finding it difficult to find plants that can stand up to it. So thanks for the tips.

Cleomes also hold up well in the sun, especially late in the summer when many other flowers are past their prime.
