1. Catnip
Nepeta – better known as Catnip – is a plant that blooms from May to September. The flowers are often purple, pink or blue in color and the leaves gray or green.

2. Yarrow
The Achillea (yarrow) is a beautiful plant. The flowers consist of dozens of small flowers that grow on sturdy branches. The colors of this plant range from white and yellow to pink and purple.

3. Stokroos
Hollyhocks are beautiful flowers that grow against something. They grow thick roots that go deep into the ground, so they can always get water from the ground, even in dry periods. They bloom from June to October. You can place these roses in full sun, but out of the wind. Read more about sowing hollyhocks here.
4. Ornamental grasses
There are different types of ornamental grasses, but what they all have in common is that the plumes wave beautifully in the wind, which creates a serene appearance. Please note that not all ornamental grasses are suitable for full sun. Which ones? Lamprey grass (Pennisetum), further grass (stipa) and diamond grass (Calamagrostis brachytricha).
5. Butterfly bush
The colorful butterfly bush likes a sunny spot. Plants that have gray/green leaves – just like butterfly bushes – are often suitable for drier soil. The purple color makes it a pleasure for the eyes. It also attracts many butterflies and bees. The butterfly plant can grow very large, so keep it in check by pruning regularly.
6. Flare
How could it be otherwise, with such a name as fire arrow, that this plant is incredibly colorful. This plant comes from Africa, where it is used to tropical temperatures. That is why this plant is perfect for a warm and sunny garden.
7. Lavender
Lavende gives off a wonderful scent and is frequently visited by bees, bumblebees and butterflies. A real asset to your garden! Another advantage of this plant is that it likes to be in a spot with lots of sun in dry, nutritious soil.
8. Coneflower
The coneflower is a spectacular plant that blooms a little later than most plants. Namely from July to the end of September. But… you can enjoy the flowers for a long time afterwards. The coneflower – as the name suggests – likes to be in a sunny spot in nutritious and permeable soil.
