ABOUT PERENNIAL PLANTS
The term “perennial plants” refers to a large number of plants that return every year. Perennials include trees, bushes, shrubs, flowers, grasses, and weeds. When they are planted within their hardiness zone, they are easy to grow and often require little care.
USES FOR FLOWER BULBS
Flower bulbs are perennial flowers that can be planted in flower gardens, vegetable gardens, containers, or borders. Perennial plants are great for naturalizing, for instance planting them near the woods or in meadows where they appear to grow naturally in the wild. Many blooms that grow from flower bulbs make beautiful cut flower arrangements. Flower bulbs can even be forced to grow indoors, which also makes nice floral gifts. Some are edible and some are not. Many bulbs are resistant to deer, squirrel and moles.
PLANTING FLOWER BULBS
If there is little space or limited time available for tending garden flowers but you want to grow them, then planting flower bulbs and tuberous plants are perfect. Many flower bulbs can be planted within a small area by layering them when planting. Gardens can also be planned so that each type of bulb planted blooms at a different time during the year. Flower bulbs and tuberous perennial flowers are planted once to return naturally each year thereafter.
NATURALIZING PLANTS
Some flower bulbs and perennial garden flowers will actually grow among the grass or weeds, still thrive and return yearly once established. Some examples of naturalizing flowers are spring blooming daffodils, daylilies, irises, and lilies.
CUT FLOWER ARRANGEMENTS
Many tuberous plants make beautiful cut flower arrangements. All of the naturalizing flowers listed above as well as tulips and gladiolus are great in flower arrangements.
