Perennial plants retreat into the ground during the cold season and then sprout again in spring. If you approach it cleverly, you can have a pretty garden from spring to autumn without having to dig again every year.

How to proceed: Choose a suitable location. Establish flagship perennials. These tall plants belong in the back row, where they tower over everything. Finish your bed with ground cover plants. Place the so-called filler perennials in the gaps - they provide the ground with shade and protect it from drying out. THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LEADING PERENNIALS FOR YOUR GARDEN are Bluebell, Anemone anemone, Bluebell Bluebell, and Bluebell Redbell.
