Border Perennials

Border perennials are flowering plants that are commonly used to create colorful and dynamic edges in garden beds, along pathways, or around patios. These plants are selected for their ability to provide continuous blooms, attract pollinators, and create a well-defined edge in the landscape. Examples include daylilies, hostas, and salvia. Border perennials are typically chosen for their height, color, and bloom time, ensuring that the border remains visually appealing throughout the growing season. They are often planted in layers, with taller plants at the back and shorter ones at the front, to create depth and texture. The maintenance of border perennials involves regular deadheading, dividing overgrown clumps, and ensuring proper soil fertility. Border perennials are a key component in creating structured, colorful garden designs that change with the seasons.
