PerennialsPerennials perform year in and year out bringing forth luscious flowers, textural, or colorful leaves, interesting seed heads and even some great fall color. They come in all shapes and sizes from baseball-sized buns to Volkswagon bug proportions as in Chilean Rhubarb or Gunnera. Perennials are a layer of incomparable diversity and richness.
BiennialsBiennials live for two years. The first year the leafy rosette and roots are established. Year two the flowers amaze and delight before they die. Some self-sow to create a continuous cycle for years to come.
GrassesGrasses and sedges add a soft, flowing effect, or an exciting vertical element in the landscape. Some serve well as single specimens and others are more effective en masse. Gracefully moving with the breeze to enliven the garden, or making stunning displays in fall and winter with handsome seed heads, grasses belong in nearly every garden. Most are deer-resistant too!
FernsFerns are too often taken for granted like hard-working stagehands who make sure everything flows for the main characters of the night. The calming texture and leaf shape are subtle yet significant elements that when taken away are sorely missed. They are an ancient plant form that seems to resonate deeply. Be aware that some ferns are evergreen and others deciduous.
Bulbs & TubersBulbs seem magical because what you plant in the ground is so very different from the beauty that bursts into bloom above ground. Later on, when you've completely forgotten about them, they'll surprise and delight you. Planting bulbs is a kind of secret investment! Many require a dry resting period so pay special attention to this.
VinesVines come in all shapes and sizes. Some are rambunctious while others are timid weavers and twiners. Vertical or ambling, they add character and often fragrance to the garden. Let them crawl across the ground, over an otherwise uninteresting shrub, or up a trellis or tree trunk, no harm done.
