We like to describe perennials as the foundation of the garden. The proper term, “herbaceous perennial,” applies to plants that die back to the ground in fall then send up fresh growth in the spring.

Herbaceous perennials offer tremendous diversity in color, form, bloom time, size, texture, foliage, light and soil requirements, and fragrance. Their rugged, carefree disposition makes them ideal for beginning gardeners. Most of the varieties we offer are quite hardy in Northern climates, and many establish substantial crowns and root systems that help them tolerate heat and drought.
