Perennials are long-lived compared to annuals and require relatively low maintenance. This publication gives details on how to design with perennials, how to successfully prepare your garden for perennials and how to control pests and diseases.
Several drawings help make directions clear.
The tabloid-sized publication lists perennials and gives you information about where they will thrive and how much work they take. Grid sheets are included to help you plan your own garden.
