Annual Flowers

Seasonal Color That Lasts From Spring Through Fall in Marlton, Evesham & Beyond

Thomas and Son Landscaping installs annual flowers for residential properties across Camden and Burlington County, NJ.

There’s a certain kind of satisfaction that comes from pulling into your driveway and seeing your landscape beds full of color. Annual flowers make that happen — and they do it reliably, season after season. Thomas and Son Landscaping has been serving Marlton, Evesham, Mount Laurel, Cherry Hill, Haddonfield, Moorestown, Voorhees, and the surrounding communities of Camden and Burlington County, NJ since 2021. Whether your beds have been looking a little flat or you’re starting fresh, we’ll help you figure out what works for your property and get it planted right.

Unlike perennials that take time to establish and fill in, annuals deliver big color in a single season. They bloom hard from installation day through the first frost — which means your landscape looks its best for months, not just a few weeks. We offer installations in spring, summer, and fall so there’s always something vibrant growing in your beds.

Spring, Summer & Fall — We Plant for Every Season

One of the biggest advantages of working with annuals is the ability to rotate your color palette as the seasons shift. What thrives in the cool days of early spring isn’t always the right choice for the heat of July — and neither of those will carry you through October. We plan your installations with that in mind, selecting varieties that are well-suited to New Jersey’s climate and the specific conditions of your beds.

In the spring, we typically work with cool-season favorites that tolerate those unpredictable late-season temperature swings that South Jersey is known for. As summer heats up, we shift toward heat-tolerant varieties that won’t wilt or fade during the humid stretches that tend to hit Camden and Burlington County hard. Come fall, we bring in plants that can handle the cooling temperatures and still deliver color right up until frost.

Some of the annuals we commonly work with across the seasons include:

• Begonias — Reliable bloomers with attractive foliage that perform well in both sun and partial shade
• Impatiens — A go-to for shadier beds, producing dense, colorful blooms all season long
• Petunias — Versatile and vibrant, ideal for beds, borders, and container arrangements
• Vinca — Heat-tolerant and low-maintenance, with bright star-shaped flowers that hold up through summer
• Zinnias — Bold, cheerful blooms in a wide range of colors that attract pollinators
• Pansies — Hardy cool-season flowers that thrive in spring and fall when temperatures drop
• Snapdragons — Striking vertical blooms that add height and texture to fall beds

We Work With You to Choose What Fits Your Property

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer when it comes to annual flower selection. The right plants depend on how much sun your beds receive, the condition of your soil, how much maintenance you’re comfortable with, and the overall look you’re going for. Some beds get full sun from morning to evening; others are tucked under a tree canopy and see only a few hours of direct light. Those two beds need completely different plants to perform well.

When we come out to take a look at your property, we assess those conditions and walk through options with you. We want you to feel confident about what’s going in — not just handed a recommendation and a shovel. Our owner-operated approach means you’re talking directly to the person doing the work, not a salesperson handing things off to a crew you’ve never met.

We’ll also consider how the flowers coordinate with your existing plantings, hardscape, and the overall character of your home. A cohesive landscape bed — where the colors, heights, and textures work together — makes a much stronger impression than a random mix of whatever was available at the nursery that week.

Pair Your Flowers With Fresh Mulch for a Finished Look

Annual flowers look their best when the beds around them are clean and well-maintained. One of the simplest ways to make a new flower installation really pop is to pair it with fresh mulch installation. A clean layer of black or brown mulch — the two most popular options we install — creates a sharp contrast that makes colors stand out and gives the whole bed a finished, intentional appearance.

Mulch also plays a practical role: it helps retain soil moisture, which is especially important for newly installed annuals that are still getting established. We recommend replenishing mulch annually, and if you’re already scheduling a flower installation, it’s a natural time to refresh the beds at the same time. We can handle both in a single visit.

If your beds have been struggling with weeds, we can also address that before or alongside your flower installation through our landscape bed weed control service — including hand-pulling and weed barrier installation — so your new plantings aren’t competing for nutrients and space from day one.

A Company That Does the Job Right or Doesn’t Do It at All

Thomas and Son Landscaping was built around a straightforward principle: if we can’t do something the right way, we won’t do it — and we’ll point you toward someone who can. That kind of honesty isn’t always the easiest path, but it’s the one that earns trust over time. We’re an owner-operated company, we hire local workers, and we take pride in the quality of what we leave behind on every property.

Every job wraps up with a walkthrough so you can see the finished work and raise any concerns before we consider the project complete. We also use a 50% deposit structure — the remaining balance isn’t due until you’re satisfied. That’s not just a policy; it’s a reflection of how seriously we take the outcome of every installation.

We’re also committed to keeping our approach as natural as possible. We don’t apply pesticides, and we work to minimize plastics in everything we do — something that matters to a growing number of homeowners in the Marlton and Evesham area who are thinking carefully about what goes into their landscape.
