A huge perk of perennial flowers is that they add permanence to your garden display. Pick one that you love, add it to your lawn or garden, and watch it grow again year after year. This also makes them top pick for cutting gardens! Perennials also have a deep, strong root system that helps to prevent soil erosion where they are planted.
Perennials also do well in containers so you can bring your gardening vision onto the patio and inside of your house. Gardeners also use perennials to :
- Highlight pathways and landscaping
- Cover soil between trees and shrubs
- Fill in bare corners
- Accent your annuals
