What kind of flowers are good to plant during the summer?
Lately I’ve been at home bored when I’m not at work and I want something to do to keep my occupied, so I was thinking of planting some flowers. What kind of flowers are good to plant during the summer months (considering the hot weather and such). I live in the Dallas/Ft. Worth are of Texas if that helps. They will be in the shade of a tree but at some point during the day might get direct sunlight. I want colorful flowers but am not sure which will work… Thanks!

These are perennials:
periwinkles best to get the plants. Hard to grow from seeds.
Petunias
zinnas
four o’clocks
marigold
spider flower
Impatiens are good, they like shade but can tolerate some sun also. They come in many colors.
Lantana likes dry hot weather and it will come back next year but it needs a little more sun.
it depends on the weather, the soil, and what kind of plant suits your style
