Perennials
are plants that come back year after year. They
have long been used in beds, borders, and throughout
the landscape to provide beauty, flowers for cutting,
attracting butterflies and hummingbirds, fragrance,
and to fill areas where other types of plants may
not be suitable. No other family of plants is represented
by such a vast range of colors, textures, forms
and environmental tolerances. We think that more
than anything else, developing an interest in perennial
plants is a satisfying and therapuetic hobby as
you plant and watch them grow, and experience the
joyful anticipation of their return in spring. Through
our own experince, and the feedback from other gardeners
over the past 24 years, Wilson Bros. Nursery has
compiled a list of perennials that perform well
in Zone 8.
