PERENNIALS 



Perennials give a feeling of permanence to any planting. They live 

 for years, and grow bigger and more showy with the passing of 

 time. They demand very little care for the beauty they give which 

 is an advantage for weekend gardeners. 



It's easy to find a place for perennials, wherever you live. Like 

 all other plants, be careful to locate each in the spot that will suit it 

 best. Make combinations of kinds and colors that will look well 

 together. You will be rewarded with handsome color for weeks in 

 the garden and most perennials are excellent for cutting too.
