Top 10 Purple Flowers to Brighten Your Garden

Phlox

Garden phlox is a perennial that has a timeless beauty, and purple types like "Flame Blue" or "Blue Paradise" provide a special touch. Phlox, which grow 2 to 3 feet tall and have globe-shaped blooms, thrive in regions with direct sunlight. These purple perennial flowers bloom from mid-summer to the beginning of fall, though the deer seem to like them quite a bit.

Vervain

Vervain, a perennial native to North America with purple blossoms, is a great option. These plants produce tall, purple perennial flowers that really stand out in the yard. Sun-loving vervain, which grows to a maximum height of 4 to 5 feet, is one of the least-used perennials with purple flowers.

German bearded iris

There are many different shades of German bearded iris, but violet is by far my favourite. You may, thankfully, choose from a wide range of purple flowering perennials to add to your yard. Irises are hardy plants that do well in full to partial sunlight. Nevertheless, don't bury the rhizomes too far or they may rot. German iris are among the easiest perennial purple plants to grow that are resistant to deer.

Bear’s breeches

Bear's breeches is a big perennial with purple flowers that you can grow in your garden. Every summer, 3-foot-tall spires of hooded blooms are perched atop large, imposing leaves coated in spines. The blossoms of bear's breeches endure for months and thrive in direct sunlight. Give this purple perennial a tonne of space in the garden because it can withstand winter temperatures of -20 degrees F.

Monkshood

For gardeners wishing to add purple perennials that bloom in the fall, this plant is a fantastic delight. The most recent flower to bloom in my environment is my monkshood. Tall flower spires do not begin to bloom until very late in the summer and continue long into the fall. The blossoms on this shrub rise tall when given full sun.

Tatarian aster

Tatarian aster is my all-time favourite among the tall purple perennials that are available. This 6 foot tall, late-blooming perennial with purple flowers is a lure for migrating monarch butterflies. At a season when few other plants are in bloom, it is covered in clusters of tiny, pale purple blooms that are adored by a variety of pollinators.

False indigo

Fake indigo is a superb perennial with early blooms. Each spring, I adore seeing the fat bumblebees open the blossoms with lids. They are among the few types of bees that can lift the flowers open and fertilise them. Another perennial with purple flowers that the deer avoid eating is false indigo, which is undoubtedly a welcome benefit.

Russell blue lupine

Lupines are traditional perennials for sunny gardens, but my soil's heavy clay and acidity make it difficult for me to grow them there. Lupines generate tall spires of dense blossoms in the late spring when they bloom. Despite its cultivar name, "Russell Blue" is more purple than blue. It's a kind that's worth growing if you're looking for plants with purple blossoms.

Clustered bellflower

Visitors to gardens are stopped in their tracks by the clustered bellflower's rich purple blossoms. Bellflower can withstand temperatures as low as -40 degrees F and thrives in both full and partial sunlight. As long as you maintain the plant deadheaded, clustered bellflower, a purple flowering perennial that attracts pollinators, will bloom all summer.

Blazing star

Blazing stars are a purple perennial that is native to North America and is a favourite of bees and butterflies. Each summer, the 12-inch-tall blossom spikes of this plant emerge from the thin, strap-like leaves. This plant has a lengthy bloom period since the blooms open one after the other down the stalk. Blazing star plants develop from a corm-like structure that they prefer to grow in full sun.
