In this article we will look at which white flowers to choose for the garden in order to create a harmonious landscape and make the shaded corners “shine”.

• One- and two-year-olds

The idea of ​​decorating gardens in one color palette not new. Modern designers, who set trends in gardening, only continue the endeavors of creators who created picturesque plant compositions back in the Middle Ages.

Gardens built on the principle of monochromatic colors were widely accepted hundreds of years ago. In the game of halftones and shades main role played by the sizes and shapes of plants.

Compositions of white flowers look especially great during twilight, when the last rays are reflected on the light petals.

In the 16th-17th centuries in ancient India and East Asian countries such gardens were called “lunar”. They got their name due to the fact that at dusk they created amazing pictures of white silhouettes of flowers.

To emphasize the whiteness of the delicate flowers and enhance the reflective effect, the plant compositions in the garden were complemented by stones coated with white paint, artificial ponds and sea sand sparkling in the moonlight.

One of the most famous gardens in the world, in which everything is subordinated to a single color, is Sissinghurst White Garden in England. It was created at the beginning of the 20th century, but still remains a role model that inspires many gardeners to create their own “living” masterpieces.

Walking through such a garden is a pleasure: tens of thousands of graceful white flowers of different shapes and sizes make this place especially romantic

To decorate the garden, varieties with silver-white edging of leaves and flowers of various shades of white were used. Its creator, the English writer Vita Sackville-West, managed to so skillfully select an assortment of flowers of the same shade that the composition pleases with a riot of flowering throughout the year.

There is nothing difficult about bringing such beauty to life in your garden. You just need to decide which flowers with white flowers to prefer and how to create compositions so that the plants, without competing with each other, reflect the general mood.

A little later, the bulbous primroses will be replaced by delicate lilies of the valley, decorated with miniature light bells, and cute Alba primroses.

In spring, alyssum, which is also known as marine lobularia, will be an elegant decoration for a rock garden or alpine slide. An unpretentious, low-growing annual with small oval leaves and tiny flowers collected in dense clusters, it will delight you with flowering throughout the growing season.

Alyssum belonging to the Tetra schneereiben and Carpet of snow varieties looks unusually beautiful, the caps of which gently sway when the wind blows.

Having planted tulip bulbs in the fall, you can enjoy the beauty of these marvelous flowers in the spring months. Among tulips, the petals of which are painted in white shades, the following varieties are famous for their special decorativeness: White Parrot, White Marv, White Triumphator, fringed Daytona.

Among the varieties of Turkish carnations, many gardeners especially love Albus or Dianthus plumarius for their decorativeness and ease of care.

Ground covers will pass the baton of flowering to herbaceous peonies and irises. Against the background of green foliage, handsome irises with corrugated flowers of the following varieties look unusually impressive: Jayceetee Grosvenor, Arctic Express, Sword-shaped, Mesmerizer Byers.

Beloved by many gardeners, violet is famous for its variety of shades. But thanks to the efforts of breeders, monochromatic varieties, for example, “White Crystal,” can also be found on sale.

• musk roses Trier and Prosperity with fragrant flowers in creamy white shades.

In the carpet flower garden, be sure to plant chickweed, chickweed and saxifrage. Ground cover varieties with miniature flowers look advantageous in combination with decorative white gravel.

When forming a monochrome flower bed, focus on the range of textures in the plant composition. Let the flower garden be filled with plants that differ noticeably in the shape of their leaves.

If, when creating a variegated flower bed, such texture will go unnoticed, then in a monochromatic flower garden it will catch the eye, like a “3D” effect

Aconites and large-flowered daisies can transform even the most inconspicuous corners in the garden. These amazing crops are ideal for creating landscape gardens with a forest character, which are characterized by mystery and mystery.

Daisies will delight you with flowering in the summer months, and large inflorescences aconites will decorate the garden with majestic “candles” at the end of the season.

By choosing hanging varieties, you can decorate hanging pots with flower garlands. Floral fragrant “clouds” will be a worthy decoration for a gazebo, veranda or terrace.

The grayish shades of the openwork foliage of Cineraria maritima, lovingly referred to by gardeners as “silver dust”, will help to dilute the white “blanket” in the flower garden.

Among the popular varieties of seaside cineraria, it is worth highlighting: Cirrus with oval leaves and Silver Dust with carved foliage. The silvery tint and carved leaves of the plant can favorably emphasize the color of the flowers and set off the greenery that frames them.

Special attention the beautiful lilies deserve. Royal trumpet lilies, Asian and oriental hybrids can easily tolerate mid-latitude conditions.

Lilium candidum is one of the oldest species of white lily, to which Hippocrates attributed divine origin and healing properties.

Airy snow-white clouds in a sunny flower bed form numerous gypsophila flowers. For the lightness and weightlessness of the miniature, bead-like flowers, gardeners nicknamed the ground cover “the bride’s veil.” Among the decorative varieties, the most attractive are Bristol Fairy with double white flowers and Monstrosa.

The branched stems of low-growing gypsophila, reaching a height of 20-50 cm, are decorated with paniculate inflorescences of light shades, framed by graceful foliage

Lush flowering in white tones in the summer months will be ensured by:

• calimeris notched;

Behind delicate flowers, which, like the strokes of an artist’s brush, paint the garden in light shades, the perennial aster is loved by many gardeners. Its snow-white hemispheres look great not only in a flowerbed, but also in a bouquet. The varieties of tall aster Agleni, whose branches are abundantly strewn with small white flowers, and Weisser Schirm deserve special attention.

The delicate panicles of astilbe will be a worthy complement to the delicate flowers of the aster. Spreading branches with spectacular inflorescences feel comfortable even with slight shading.

Among the most famous varieties, it is worth highlighting “Deutschland” with white airy inflorescences and Schtrausenfeder with fluffy diamond-shaped panicles

In case of difficulties, you can always play it safe by adding variegated leaves to your compositions. Heucheras, comfrey, hostas, and lungworts can successfully cope with this task.

The white-edged hosta can become the “princess” of any flower bed, giving the composition a touch of sophistication and elegance.

Hostas forming airy “cushions” will visually soften the transitions between colors, bringing harmony to the composition. Variegated foliage interspersed with blue, gray and silver will highlight the whiteness of the delicate flower petals.

Shrubs and trees with white flowers

In addition to herbaceous crops, you should definitely use trees and shrubs in the design of a white garden. Successfully planted tall plants can “brighten” the most shaded corners of the garden.

Weigela undoubtedly leads in this subgroup. An ornamental shrub with tubular buds delights connoisseurs of true beauty. Among the varieties with white color, Candida, Black and White are especially beautiful. The shrub can grow well in light shade conditions, reaching a height of 1.5-2.5 meters.

Weigela with hanging branches is decorated with dozens of tassels of inflorescences that bloom in early May and decorate the garden for the next 20 days

Flowering ornamental shrubs are especially pleasing to bloom in the first month of summer, as if giving the herbaceous crops the opportunity to rest and gain strength to bloom to their fullest.

From spring to summer you imperceptibly pass under the aroma of blossoming lilacs, which creates a special cozy and romantic atmosphere in the garden. The shrub is ideal for forming hedges and creating multi-level plant compositions. Lilac will look good in tandem with herbaceous peonies, who will fall in love with her at the same time.

Integral features of a summer garden in white colors will be paniculate and tree-like hydrangeas, the blooming “balls” of which can transform even the most inconspicuous corner

Singing an ode to magnificently flowering trees, I would like to highlight the already beloved bird cherry with its immense openwork, almonds and jasmine strewn with snow-white “stars,” and blackberries with textured flowers on arched shoots.

In a monochrome garden, be sure to plant a snowberry. Berries decorating the hanging branches of a bare bush will add their bright note to the overall symphony of the white garden.

Snowberry bushes, dotted with white, waxy berries, like beads, appear in all their glory with the onset of cold weather.

The compositional completeness of a garden in white tones will be given by decorative elements selected to match the monocolor: garden figures, benches, improvised mills and wells. The romanticism of the atmosphere created in the garden will be emphasized by the filling of white crushed stone.

White flowers combined with lush greenery not only make the garden charming, but also give it a special, sublime touch. It is not for nothing that white has always been considered a symbol of purity and purity. A garden decorated in these colors visually seems more spacious, freer, and even easier to breathe in. In order for the landscape to look perfectly harmonious, you need to carefully select plants that set the main tone of the landscape.

The history of monochrome gardens

Using a single-color palette to design a landscape was invented a long time ago. Nowadays, designers are only continuing what they started hundreds of years ago. In the Middle Ages, gardens called moon gardens were popular in India and East Asia.

To create such a landscape, I used exclusively white color. But at the same time there was no feeling of monotony and boredom, since the plants were selected very competently. Due to their different shapes, sizes and general appearance The lunar gardens in the twilight took on many shades of halftones. By night, the landscape seemed to consist of different pictures that were woven by the play of shadows. In addition to plants, white stones, artificial ponds and rivers, and white sea sand were also used in the gardens. All this together gave an amazing effect.

However, it was not only the Middle Ages that were famous for such masterpieces. In modern England there is still a garden called Sissinghurst Garden. It was created by the writer Vita Sackville-West at the beginning of the twentieth century. Sissinghurst amazes with its many shades of white. The leaves of its trees and shrubs are edged with silvery white. The plants are selected in such a way that the garden delights visitors with its blooms all year round. Sissinghurst is one of the most masterpiece examples of landscape creation. Modern designers and gardeners are still guided by it.

Selecting plants with white flowers for the garden

For the correct distribution of whites throughout the area, you need to take into account climate characteristics of the area and plant life expectancy.

Annuals and biennials

The flowers that are ready to be the first to greet you after the cold winter has gone are, of course, snowdrops. The meadows covered with them look very tender and fresh like spring. Following the snowdrops, lilies of the valley begin to bloom. Their small white bells look very beautiful surrounded by strong, dark green leaves. The Alba primrose, which blooms at the same time as the lilies of the valley, looks no less beautiful.

When spring finally comes into its own, the alpine slide in the garden will be covered lush cap of sea labularia, also known as alyssum. It's undersized annual plant with small leaves and strong white racemes consisting of miniature flowers. Alyssum looks mesmerizing on an alpine hill, covering it like a fluffy cloud, gently swaying in the wind.

Spring tulips will be no less pleasing to the eye, the bulbs of which must be planted in advance in the fall. The most popular varieties of white tulips: White Miracle, fringed Daytona, White Parrot and White Triumphant.

In the beginning of May ground covers will take over the garden. Perennial and Turkish carnations and Caucasian arabis look very beautiful. Turkish clove not only looks good, but also exudes a light, unobtrusive aroma. to his appearance it resembles white fluffy feathers. The varieties with the names Albus and Dianthus plumarius are especially loved by gardeners and designers for their amazing beautiful view and ease of care.

To replace ground covers irises are coming. If you choose varieties with ruffled white flowers, such as Jaycity Grosvenor or Arctic Express, they will look especially chic against the background of greenery. For later accents in the garden, you can choose white violets or ageratum. The latter will delight with its dense and fluffy inflorescences until frost.

Don't forget about the general background of the landscape. Without this touch, any design will be unfinished. For white gardens, various coniferous plants will serve as an excellent backdrop. It is advisable to choose species with silver needles. For example, thuja or brilliant cotoneaster will give just the right effect. Silver spruce is also great.

Perennials

Speaking about beautiful white flowers, one cannot help but pay due attention to them. universally recognized queen - rose. Any landscape only benefits from its presence. Roses are good in any quality; they will look gorgeous both on their own and in company with other plants. These flowers are suitable for flower beds and alpine slides. Vertical hedges and arches entwined with white roses always look sophisticated and elegant. There are several varieties that are ideal for a garden decorated in white:

• the Snowball variety, which has double flowers and a stunning aroma;
• variety Yvonne Rabier, its relatively small white flowers are collected in inflorescences;
• variety Prosperity, one of the best musk roses with a very large flowers, which abundantly strew the bush and fill the surrounding air with an impressive aroma;
• varieties Sea Foam and Kent, they are ideal for alpine slides.

Any landscape featuring these flowers will be extremely beautiful and memorable. But not only roses can make it like this. For example, don’t forget about lilies, which look both majestic and delicate. And ground cover plants with small flowers, such as saxifrage or chickweed, will create the effect of a delicate white carpet in certain areas of the garden. If you add decorative white gravel to the design of such lawns, they will take on a particularly advantageous finished look.

When creating separate flower beds, you should pay attention to ensure that the flowers on it do not merge into one shapeless white lump. It will help to avoid this effect correct selection of plants. The basic rule is that the leaves of each type differ in texture and size. This will look especially advantageous on a monochromatic flowerbed.

To add mystery to the landscape and add a certain forest touch, you can add aconites and large daisies to its design. Daisies will bloom all summer, and aconites will add the necessary accents at the end of August. White petunias are perfect for flower beds and areas along hedges. Also, some of their varieties, called hanging ones, can be placed in hanging pots on terraces or in gazebos.

To give your eyes a break from the continuous whiteness of flowers, you can add a gray-silver note using Cineraria maritima. For example, its Silver Dust variety has not only the desired shade, but also beautiful openwork leaves. Cineraria will favorably emphasize the radiance of white flowers and the richness of the surrounding greenery.

Some flower beds can be given the effect of lightness and airiness, planting them with gypsophila, which is also called the “bridal veil”. These are the same small white flowers that are added to bouquets everywhere. But if a couple of gypsophila branches there only add some emphasis to the design, then in large quantities in a separate flower bed this plant looks incredibly delicate and beautiful.

When autumn comes to the garden, they help maintain its appearance chrysanthemums and asters. These flowers are not just beautiful. According to one Chinese legend, a certain emperor regularly drank the dew that formed on chrysanthemums. This ritual extended his life to seven hundred years. Of course, this is just a legend. But the chrysanthemum is definitely capable of extending the life of the garden, which is slowly falling asleep before the arrival of winter. Gentle asters help her in this matter, for example, the variety White screen. All this splendor can be complemented with the help of the spectacular branching of astilbe. The best varieties of this plant are considered to be Ostrich Feather and Germany.

Also for late summer Other plants are also good:

• paniculate phlox, White Admiral variety;
• Echinacea Purple Alba;
• Japanese anemone, variety Smerch;
• yarrow Achillea decolorans.

All these flowers will provide the garden with a smooth transition from summer to autumn without loss of whiteness and overall bright beauty.

Trees and shrubs with white flowers

Annual and perennial flowers are beautiful, but almost any landscape design will not be completed without the presence of trees and shrubs. These tall plants will create the right accents, somewhere they will highlight a flowering area, and somewhere, on the contrary, they will shade it.

The most popular shrub for white gardens is weigela. Its tubular flowers, similar to bells, abundantly strew the entire bush. This shrub can grow in both sun and shade. This unpretentiousness is very convenient when planning a garden design. The maximum height of weigela is one and a half to two meters, which is quite enough to create the desired effect. In addition to convenience, this flowering shrub is also very beautiful, especially the Candida and Black and White varieties.

The most abundant and beautiful bloom bushes occur at the beginning of summer. A pleasant duet of weigele will be lilac, which gives the garden a chic aroma and an atmosphere of romance. Hedges made from this shrub will not leave any connoisseur indifferent. Spiraea and hydrangea bushes can serve as a separate decoration for the summer landscape. And with the onset of cold weather, a snowberry will help maintain the desired palette. This shrub has small white flowers that bloom in the spring, but that is not what is good about it. In the fall, when it gets very cold, pure white berries appear on it, which is why the snowberry got its name. These white balls look like round pieces of snow hanging on the branches.

Trees with white flowers are no less important for a lunar garden. Some of them are widely popular due to their beauty and amazing scents. Bird cherry, almond, jasmine - each of these trees can become that very necessary detail that places accents in the garden.
