Many of our favorite early springtime flowers are bulbs. Crocuses, hyacinths, and snowdrops are the first to burst from the thawing ground. Many daffodils bloom in late winter or early spring as well. Gordon shares that bulbs are easy to plant and require little maintenance.

Because some flowers are not able to cope with the extreme weather conditions, they only bloom in spring-like tulips, daffodil, lily flowers, bluebell, hyacinth, and allium among others.

Which perennial flower has the longest bloom season? While many perennial flowers have long bloom times, the threadleaf coreopsis Moonbeam variety (Coreopsis verticillata 'Moonbeam') is a perennial with the longest bloom time.

If there were a queen of the spring garden, it would probably be the tulip! You just can't get much more timeless than this spring-blooming classic. If you can't get enough of them in your garden, just think of their potential as potted beauties for your table, mantel, and any other sunny surface you can think of!
