What flowers survive best with alot of sunlight?

I live on a street that runs east and west, so the sun hits my yard all day. I still would like to plant flowers, but I am afraid that too much sun will hurt them. What kind of flowers can I plant that will thrive in all of that sunlight?

Reply:Two plants that love sunlight and dry soil : Yarrow and purple cone flower. They are perennials and need little attention.
Reply:sunflowers, zinnias, calendulas, marigolds
Reply:sunflowers
Reply:Marigolds. Any variety.
Reply:Try Mexican Hats (a perennial) or day lillies. Both take the sun pretty well. Liatris also do pretty well in the sun and so do Echinacea. You'll just need to water fairly well the first year. Day lillies seem to do the best. Russian sage also does good.
Reply:Gosh, I envy you! My yard is almost all shade and it really limits the types of plants I can grow. When you go to your local nursery, the plants will have tags that tell you whether the plant likes sun or shade. But generally the brightest colored flowers need the most sun. You can choose from roses, lantana, blue daze, gallardia, Mexican heather, petunias, zinnias, marigolds, and a whole host of other ones! Enjoy.
Reply:Most annuals do great in a full sun area. The only catch is you have to replant them every year. There are some perennials, however, that thrive in full sun. Try this website:

Reply:I have a garden like that, I just put annual in it, so try portulaca it is great for a sunny spot and has nice flowers and I have a perennial in there called cheddar pinks, they grow really good in there and they have beautiful little pink flowers. Definitely try the portulaca though. Petunias like sun as well and are very bright and colourful, you can buy wave petunias and they spead out really nicely as ground cover, just be sure to pick of the dead flowers to promote constant blooming. Two more I just thought of are dahlias althought they need a good amount of water and geraniums grow well in sun as well.
Reply:bougainvillea. they require at least 6 hours of sun a day so they'd be perfect.
Reply:My house is set up like that too. I grow morning glories and moon flowers up some bird netting stapled to the front of the porch. They grow all the way up, flower beautifully, and keep the house cooler by shading the front of the house during the hottest part of the year. In the winter I take the netting down so my house can be warmed by the sun again. They're annuals but tend to drop a ton of seeds in the fall that come right up in the spring.

Reply:The plant / landscaper's term for a lot of sunlight is "full sun." Go to a place selling plants. When you see something you like, look for the tag in the pot. It may say "full sun" or perhaps have a yellow sun picture on it. If so, it's OK for your location. Pay attention to height, which is also on the tag. Pick out a variety of colors, textures and get some tall plants for the back of the bed. Have fun and Good Luck !!make up
