Perennials and Native Plants

In cottage gardens, rock gardens, and woodland gardens and more, perennials fill a wide niche in outdoor gardening. Perennials offer an unlimited palette of colors, sizes, textures, and cultural requirements. Nothing is more cheerful in the garden than the bright-eyed Shasta Daisy, and no woodland garden would be complete without a selection of graceful ferns. Our perennials are labeled with detailed information like drought tolerance, deer resistance, and butterfly appeal to help you plant the garden of your dreams.

A rapidly growing area of interest in perennials is native plants. The advantage of "going native" includes reduced use of fertilizers, water and pesticides. Plus, they're low maintenance. Native plants can be just as showy as commonly used non-native ornamentals. Once established, they are disease and drought resistant. Planting natives helps to maintain the plant genotypes and—because everything is interrelated—helps preserve native animal species as well.
