    you want to look for perennials that come back every year and maybe look into flowering shrubs ,the smaller kind will do and then just pepp it up with some annuals ! taking care of them good will make them last very long!

    I can’t think of any that flower all year, but some of my favorites with long blooming seasons are:
    hellebore
    impatiens
    petunias
    columbine
    phlox

    It depends on where you live. There are numbered growing zones used by nurseries to help you decide what to plant. If you live in North America find them here:

    A favorite here in S.C. is Lantana. There are many colors and they begin blooming in late spring and continue until frost. They hibernate during winter and come back every year. Very tolerant in hot weather. The yellow ones and multi-colored ones, for some reason, seem to do the best having mounds of unceasing blooms.

    To prevent replanting each year ask for perennial plants or seeds.

    All annuals will bloom from spring to fall, and there are so many to chose from.The biggest problem with any of them is having to replace them every spring. Two of my favorite perennial flowers are Dianthus and Carnations. I had mine planted between buildings, where it only gets about 5 hours of sun, and they actually bloomed for 11 months (in Northern California). I lost one Dianthus when the nights hit 25 degrees for 4 nights. On one carnation I just pulled off over 100 spent blooms and it is still covered in flowers.
