Larkspur is one of July's birth flowers. It's a seeded annual that will re-seed itself in your garden year after year. We love the cottage vibe of larkspur, which can grow up to three feet tall and has flowers in blue, purple, pink, white, and red.
Another of July's birth flowers, water lily seems especially appropriate for July since water sign Cancer is mostly born in this month. And there's something truly special about the water lily with its pretty flowers floating in tranquil waters. If you have a pond, this is the July flower to cultivate.

These sweetly scented showy flowers are my absolute favorite of the June blooms. The perennial blossoms will grace your garden year after year, and they come in colors ranging from creamy white to vivid pink.
These pretty flowers come in watercolors ranging from white to red to purple to blue, and they smell amazing. My mom grew hers vininig along the fence, and sweet peas grow up to six feet tall. You'll love their sweet blossoms, but it's the fragrance that makes them truly special. Oh — and butterflies and bees love them.
With their bright colors, ranunculus reach their peak in June. They make great cut flower arrangements, and they're also deer-resistant. (Although our neighborhood deer were so hungry, they nibbled my ranuncs right off the stems and then spit them out next to the planter. Thanks, deer.)
These late spring and early summer flowers have a unique shape with a pretty droop, and they come in sweet colors including white, red, yellow, and pink. These perennials are easy to grow, and they're hardy in zones 3-9. These were a mainstay in my mom's garden when I was a kiddo, and they add a sweet touch to cut flower bouquets.
