Perennials

Perennials are plants that you plant once and they will continue to come back year after year.  Perennials continue to increase in popularity because they are more cost-effective than annuals (since they do not need to be replaced each spring and fall).  However, unlike annuals, perennials tend to have a shorter and more specific bloom time.  Therefore, to create season-long color, it is advisable to mix early, mid, late, and winter blooming perennials in your beds and borders.  Dearness Gardens has the best selection of perennials in the Lake Norman area!  We carry all the old garden favorites like Black Eyed Susans, Shasta Daisies, and Garden Phlox, but we also add to our collection each year to include all the new "cutting edge" varieties and new introductions.  Our staff members would be more than happy to help you create a fantastic eco-friendly perennial garden that provides season-long color and interest, attracts hummingbirds and butterflies, and provides food for birds and bees!
