How to Decorate With Primitive Country Flower Beds

Plant country flowers such as forget-me-nots, clematis, wallflowers and lilac in various places around your yard. Place plants no more than six inches apart in small bunches of eight to 10 flowers. Creating primitive country flower beds is an ongoing process, so leave room for each bed to grow as time passes.

Place masses of cosmos, chrysanthemums, joe-pye weed and roses along the perimeter of your home so that you can always see a burst of color from your windows. Planting flowers that bloom in different seasons ensures that your primitive country flower bed will be colorful all year.

Add a primitive country flower bed near your entryway or porch to enjoy when you arrive at or leave your home. Phlox, dianthus, black-eyed Susans and stonecrop make nice ground covers and require little care other than occasional watering and weeding.

Line your fence or property boundary with an assortment of country flowers, such as butterfly plant, globe thistle and yarrow. These plants range in height from 2 to 4 feet, so they will add extra protection along your fence.

Plant clematis, climbing roses or ivy at the base of a trellis, wall or fence, and allow it to grow up the structure. As time passes, the plants will thrive and fill the space with a mass of greenery.
