      I love Geraniums, very easy and you can even bring them in in winter and have as house plants, and you can take stems and root them.

      I bought from this company and received them in two days and was very pleased, came by UPS in 2 1/2 in pots very healthy too

      Zinnias, merigolds, and sunflowers are foolproof and will give you lots of bloom all summer long. I suggest that you shop around for your zinnias and sunflowers because there are many varieties to choose from. Get your Merigolds from a nursery. I also suggest that you get a copule of started vegetables at your nursery–2 tomatoes, 4 peppers, 4 eggplants, and 2 squash plants will give you lots to eat this summer and the merigolds will keep the bugs away. Best of luck. Have fun!

      get bugonias(if im spelling them right) they are so nice when they get to maturity. and they are tolerant too to sun and watering. but do water. they are great in pots and also lining driveways or whatevr. they get full and thick. awsome! but get them when little cause if you get them to late like at homedepot, and out grown their pots, they get lanky. so get them when they are small and theyll get nice and bushy.
