Annual flowers bring a burst of color and life to any garden, border, or nursery in a short time. They germinate, flower, and set seed all within a single season, making them ideal for rapid and abundant flowering. Annuals are also commercially attractive to growers and florists: they are easy to grow, have a short growing season, and appeal to a wide audience.
At Easyseeds you will find a wide range of high-quality annual flower seeds, specially selected for professional cultivation and wholesale.
Annual flowers are plants that germinate, grow, bloom, and then die within a single growing season. Unlike perennials, they don't overwinter; their strength lies in their rapid growth and long blooming period. They are often sown in spring and bloom profusely from summer until the first frost.
Well-known examples of annual flowers include zinnia, cosmos, marigold (Tagetes), cornflower, snapdragon, and sunflower. There are also countless special varieties that allow growers and florists to distinguish themselves, such as ammi majus, scabiosa, and nigella (lady-in-the-mist).
Annual flowers are often used in borders, flowerbeds, bouquets, and cut-flower gardens. They are popular with professional growers for their predictable growth pattern and fast turnover.
Annual flower seeds offer numerous advantages for both growers and wholesalers:
Fast cultivation. Within a few weeks, the plants develop from seedlings to flowering plants.
Long flowering period. Many varieties bloom from June to October.
Wide variety of colors and heights. Perfect for adding variety to borders and bouquets.
High yield. One packet of seeds produces dozens to hundreds of plants.
Flexible in use. Suitable for beds, pots, borders, and cut flower production.
Annual flowers are attractive to the professional market because they provide a high yield with relatively little investment. They're easy to combine and ideal for offering a fresh, updated range each season.
Annuals are an important part of the offerings for florists and growers who supply fresh flowers or plants. They offer the opportunity to quickly adapt their offerings to seasonal or customer needs. Moreover, many varieties are ideally suited to the local flower market, where there is a demand for sustainable and locally grown products.
