Tulips. Tulips (Tulipa hybrids) are an April-blooming flower that grow in a rainbow of bright colors. Ranging from 6 to 24 inches tall, tulips are ideal spring-blooming flower to grow along a perennial bed or in a cutting garden to use as fresh-cut flowers.
Stokes aster (Stokesia laevis) opens its pretty flowers from spring through summer, depending on how far north the garden is.
