Are your garden plants collapsing every
0:01
summer while you're just trying to
0:03
survive the heat yourself? You're not
0:05
alone. But here's something the
0:06
nurseries won't tell you. Some flowers
0:09
thrive in brutal heat and demand almost
0:11
nothing in return. Curious? You should
0:14
be, because today we're revealing 10
0:16
lowmaintenance flowers that not only
0:18
survive scorching sun, but absolutely
0:20

0:22
superhero of hot climate gardens. It

0:27
leaves, but it adores blazing sun.

Tough, drought tolerant, and always
0:32
blooming, it'll keep your garden looking
0:34
cheerful when everything else is giving
0:35
up. If you've got a sunny spot, Vinka
0:38
won't let you down. Moss rose is one of
0:40

0:44
a camel, and its vibrant blooms open
0:46
wide in full sun. No pampering required.
0:50
It's a fast grower and once it takes
0:52
off, it'll carpet your space with color.
0:54
Rose Campion isn't your average flower.
0:57
It's got silvery fuzzy leaves that
0:59
almost look suspiciously artificial. But
1:01
it's magenta or pink blooms are real
1:03
showstoppers. And this short-lived
1:05
perennial handles heat like a native
1:07
desert dweller. Add it to your garden
1:09
for that wild, effortlessly cool vibe.
1:12
Maragolds are more than just pretty.
1:14

1:19
poor soil, resist pests, and keep
1:22
blooming from spring to frost. They've
1:24
been a garden favorite for generations,
1:26
and once you grow them, you'll know why.
1:28

1:31
tropical touch to the garden and thrives

on giving. Fanflower is an underdog that

1:52
heat and humidity, cascading beautifully

from baskets or borders. You'll rarely
1:56

trying to win a contest. Plant it, walk
2:13
away, and let it light up your garden.

Million bells may look like tiny
2:17
patunias, but don't be fooled. They're
2:20
tougher than they seem. They don't mind
2:22
the heat and keep spilling out blooms
2:24
even during heat waves. Give them a

little shade in the hottest part of the
2:28
day, and they'll reward you endlessly.

space. Easy to grow and surprisingly
2:42
resilient, it's an underrated gem in hot
2:45
climate gardens. Zenas are the rock
2:48
