HARDY Zar 
Every garden needs perennials! Indeed, no home garden is com- 
plete without them, providing a continual source of color outdoors 
and a convenient supply of cut flowers for interior use. For most 
effective results, always plant perennials in groups of three, setting 
them in a triangle shape. Perennial borders are best when they are 
planted along a fence or in front of shrubbery, Flowering beauty 
repeats year after year.
