Bedding is what you make it

Bedding plants are really all plants that, irrespective of their growing habits, are used to make a temporary show.

For example: hardy bulbs (hyacinths and tulips), hardy and half-hardy perennials (chrysanthemums), and even tender shrubs (castor oil plant).

But 'bedding' is usually taken to mean those half-hardy annuals or half-hardy perennials planted out to make a splash of colour in the summer.

For example; petunias, begonias, pelargoniums and calceolarias.
