May is a fantastic time to add plants to flower beds and containers for bright flowering displays. While many gardeners will head to the garden center to pick up some ready-to-go plants, the most cost-effective route can be to grow perennials from seed.
Luckily, May can be a good time to sow perennials. For the price of some seeds, compost, and a bit of time and patience, the reward is gorgeous displays of flowers for years to come.
