A sunny perennial border is a classic look and a staple in any landscape. With the increasing popularity of perennial plants, there are now more species, cultivars, and varieties available on the market than ever. Concentrate on identification, culture, landscape use, and planting combinations of new and unique perennial species and cultivars that are suitable for growing in your sun garden.
This class focuses on some of the best groundcovers to grow in the MidAtlantic region. Offering solutions to many landscape and garden challenges, groundcovers also provide unified colors and textures to make the rest of your plantings really sing. Evergreen to deciduous, herbaceous to woody, flowering to foliar, this wide-ranging group of plants has something for everybody.
