Names Of Flowers That Start With T

We will outline some flowers that start with T and provide additional information on growing these flowers.

1. Tulip (Tulipa)

Tulip

Tulip (Tulipa) is a perennial, bulging plant that belongs to the family of Lily (Liliaceae). It has more than 110 species and thousands of cultivars and hybrids. Tulip blooms in a huge range of colors from early to mid-spring, depending on the climate.

After a long winter of cold and snow, you will need a big display of tulip flowers to cheer you up. Tulips require full sunlight, at least 6 hours of direct sunlight every day. They also prefer fast-draining soil.

Tulips can also be grown in pots provided you sow them deep enough. Tulip doesn’t need to be watered regularly; water the plant once a week after planting and during springtime.

 

2. Tagetes (Tagetes erecta)

Tagetes

Tagetes flowers are also called marigold and planted before the last frost of spring for optimal results.

Tagetes should be grown in a sunny area of the garden that receives shade in the afternoon in organically enhanced soil.

Water the young marigold seedlings from below. Tagetes are thirsty plants; this means that you will have to water and fertilize them frequently.

 

3. Tea Rose (Rosa)

Tea Rose

Tea roses are regarded as one of the most popular flowers in the world. The flower thrives best in full sunlight but will tolerate light shade.

Plant your tea rose flower in a slightly acid soil rich in organic matter. Water the plant only when the soil is dry. The plant benefits from regular fertilizer applications, so choose a balanced fertilizer or one labeled for roses.

 

4. Tiger Flower (Tigridia pavonia)

Tiger Flower

Tiger Flower Bulbs is also known as Mexican Shell Flower. The flower can grow in either your garden or in a pot.

Plant the flower in well-drained soil under direct sunlight. Once you’ve planted the flower, water the plant regularly to keep the soil moist as they grow. Although the plant is a bit tolerant to dry soil, it's best to keep the soil moist.

 

5. Tall Bearded Iris (Iris × germanica)

Tall Bearded Iris

If you are searching for beautiful, colorful perennials to grow in your garden, the tall bearded iris should be your first option.

You don’t need to be an expert in gardening to grow the elegant perennials that will grace your garden for years to come.

Plant the flower in a sunny spot in late summer in well-drained soil. Make sure that the flower gets at least six hours of sunlight per day.

6. Trumpet Vine (Campsis radicans)

Trumpet Vine

Trumpet Vine may not be the perfect flower for your garden because they tend to invasive. Trumpet vine has masses of showy, yellow, orange, or red trumpet-shaped flowers.

Trumpet vine thrives with little care. Just make sure it is planted in well-draining soil, under part shade to full sun. Due to the flower's invasive nature, you should grow them on outbuildings or driveways.

 

7. Trollius (Trollius europaeus)

Trollius

Trollius is also a beautiful perennial to have in your garden. The plant has bright yellow-orange, bowl-shaped flowers with a dominant central boss of upright petal-like sepals.

The flower thrives in damp soil, so you will have to water it regularly. Grow the flower in full sun to partial shade.

One of the benefits of growing Trollius is that the flower attracts bees and other pollinators due to its nectar/pollen-rich flowers.

 

8. Tickseed (Coreopsis)

Tickseed

Tickseeds are also called Coreopsis and share some traits with daisies. The flower has various colors, including white with burgundy and salmon. They are also the perfect flower to have in your garden all year round.

Tickseeds need maximum sunlight for optimal results and perform excellently in well-drained soils. Tickseeds don't need to be fertilized regularly as they are not fussy plants. You may fertilize lightly once in the springtime.

 

9. Tiger Lily (Lilium lancifolium)

Tiger Lily

Tiger lily is a herbaceous perennial that grows from bulbs that produce strappy leaves and long stalks, yielding colorful, stately flowers in the summertime.

Plant in well-draining soil, as a waterlogged area, can rot the bulbs. You don’t need to fertilize the plant; tiger lilies don't need much fertilizer.

The bulbs and flowers of tiger lily are quite edible for humans, but the pollen may be mildly toxic to humans and animals.

 

10. Treasure Flower (Gazania rigens)

Treasure Flower

Treasure flowers are also called Gazanias and are sometimes confused as daisies. The flower has various colors like orange, pink, red, white, cream, or yellow.

The flower should be planted in well-draining sandy soil. The flower should be watered thoroughly, but allow the soil to dry slightly before re-watering.

Treasure Flowers can also be potted and grown as a house plant provided it receives maximum sunlight.

 

11. Tall Verbena (Verbena bonariensis)

Tall Verbena

Tall verbena is also called Verbena Bonariensis. The flower is a fast-growing perennial with clusters of lilac-purple flowers that bloom from summer through early autumn.

Tall verbenas are outdoor plants; grow the plant by sowing the seeds directly in the garden, in moist, well-drained soil. The flower performs best in full sunlight.

Water the plant regularly during the first growing season to establish long, healthy roots. Allow the soil to dry before re-watering.

 

12. Thunbergia (Thunbergia alata)

Thunbergia

Thunbergia is commonly called the Black-eyed Susan vine and grown in the Midwest. Although Thunbergia is a perennial plant, it is often referred to as an annual plant because it grows and flowers relatively quickly.

Plants bloom from mid-summer to late summer. Thunbergia grows best in rich, moist soil in full sun. It tolerates partial shade, but flowering may be reduced.
