Sally runs through 10 great plants to use when starting a perennial garden for sunny conditions. Learn more about Sugar Creek Gardens by visiting sugarcreekgarde...
yes very helpful! It would be more helpful if you had the name of each flowers displayed on the video as you mentioned them, or listed in the description box. I don't know how to spell some of the ones you verbally mentioned
Great advice and lovely photos of the plants. I have most of them in my garden (in Australia!) and my favs are the asters. I have also made a whole new garden bed mainly for dividing up my perennials. They are the staples in my garden.
The plants, in order of presentation: Leucanthemum (Shasta daisy); Dianthus; Echinacea (coneflowers); Coreopsis 'Moonbeam'; cranesbill geranium; Kalimeris 'Blue Star'; Rudbeckia 'Indian Summer'; salvia and veronica; aster.
Rabbits have been the single greatest obstacle to my having a successful perennial garden. Rabbits in my area have even gorged themselves on plants that rabbits are not supposed to like, echinacea and rubeckias.
One thing I've learned in talking with many gardeners is that a rabbit might eat or damage a specific plant in Garden A but never in Garden B. It all depends on the food source. In my case I've got a fair amount of clover growing in my yard and have little trouble with rabbits eating ornamentals they thrive on in other areas. One rabbit and deer deterrent product that has gotten rave reviews for its effectiveness from customers at Sugar Creek Gardens is Repellex, available in tablet or granular form.
Could you please list the names of 10 Prennials? I just started gardening and not familiar with names so it will be really helpful to get names. Thank you so much
Any would work, but keep in mind that perennials typically bloom for a relatively short period of time. Many gardeners prefer to use annuals in their containers because of their season-long bloom performance. The downside is that they have to be replaced every spring.

We have only a limited number of some of these plants at this point in the season, but will have plenty in spring of 2018. Mixing the plants is good, best done when buying individual plants in odds numbers (3s, 5s, 7s, for example, and combining complementary colors. Squirrels are known to dig up plants but not actually eat them.

For beginners, you should add easy to grow long blooming perennials such as catmint, hollyhock, Iris, salvias and jupiters beard.
Great suggestions, thanks and happy gardening.

Great video, thank you. But what growing zones are they good in? I need plants at a minimum rated for zone 5 or colder. Thanks.
nice video
very informative.. Thanks!
It would be so helpful if all you gardeners would tell us for what zone the plants are for
You should have an overhead view of the beds you describe so a beginner like me can understand your description of the beds. Thank you
I like it
Do they all grow in sun or can I grow them under shad under an evergreen tree
Sally, it's first week in July, Florida, is it too late for me to start a flower garden of perennials now? Great video and thanks:)
Hi, It's not to late here, so you should be good to go. Just keep plants well watered. Best of luck and happy gardening.
I live in the pacific northwest, and of that list, only perennial geraniums will grow in my soil. Those seem to be more "prairie plants".
Wish I knew where the nursery is.
1011 N Woodlawn Ave., Kirkwood, Mo., suburb of St. Louis
Thanks you may want to put it in your description box. Have a great day.
Which one can be good in a pot or planter?

Ohio?
Assuming you're in Zone 5 or 6, these plants should all be good for you.
