Bedding plants are a type of flowering plant that are often used to decorate gardens and outdoor spaces. The three most common bedding plants are petunias, pansies, and alyssum. Petunias are a genus of flowering plants with trumpet-shaped flowers that come in a variety of colors. Pansies are a type of flower that have a face-like pattern on their petals and come in a range of colors. Alyssum is a low-growing, spreading plant with small clusters of white, yellow, or purple flowers. All three of these bedding plants are popular choices for gardeners looking to add color and texture to their outdoor spaces.
