The RHS recommends placing these flowers in partial shade, where they should grow well in moist soil types, apart from permanently wet soil.
The experts said these plants dislike very dry, sandy soils, especially in the full sun as this may dry the bulbs out in the summer.
4. Pansies
The gardening pros from Garden Buildings Direct explained: “Pansies help to cover bare patches and distract from unattractive garden areas with their bright colours.
“They may need additional protective covers if the weather takes a turn for the worse, as pansies can become damaged if they’re out in freezing temperatures for too long. Keep an eye on the temperature and be prepared to give them some extra protection.”
