Perennials
Perennials are plants that live for more than two years. They die off in the fall and winter and return in the spring. There are many kinds of perennials in various colours, sizes, and textures with different bloom times. With some pre-planning of the garden layout there could be continuous blooms from spring to fall creating a new look throughout the growing season.
