erennial plants are a gardener’s dream: They add color to borders and beds, and are relatively easy to maintain. Perennials can also be used to add fragrance and texture to gardens, as well as attract beneficial wildlife such as butterflies and hummingbirds. Planting perennials in the fall is like making a long-term investment—one that pays dividends the next year.

Herbaceous perennials are plants that die back to the ground in cold weather but resume growing in spring. This feature offers gardeners a wide selection of plant sizes, flower colors and forms, and seasons of bloom to choose from.

Expert Advice

times during a season. Height is an important factor. Dimitrov suggests using taller plants at the back of a border or bed, with the lowest perennials at the front. In shade-challenged beds, consider using drought-tolerant plants, or those with low water requirements.

Explains flower specialist Venelin Dimitrov, “Fall is the ideal time to plant perennials because the cold winter months that follow are very important for dormancy. Many beautiful plants from temperate climates must experience a period of low winter temperature to initiate and accelerate flowering, which is known as vernalization. This process establishes the plant, so it starts growing earlier the next spring and produces brighter and bolder colors.”

For a dynamic sweep of color every spring, plant snowdrop, crocus, tulip and daffodil bulbs when the ground has cooled sufficiently. Add edible interest by planting perennial fruits such as blackberries, raspberries and strawberries. Garlic is also easy to grow, richly flavored and will keep up to 10 months after harvest.

Dimitrov suggests that for most gardeners, border perennials are probably most useful in a mixed border, interplanted with low-growing shrubs that may or may not lose their foliage in winter. Mixed borders allow woody plants to add structure, height, texture and yearlong interest to the garden.

Eye On Looking Young

nyone with an eye for success may see the wisdom in a study by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. It found that some 73 percent of women felt a youthful appearance played a role in getting a job, getting promoted or keeping clients. One problem can be older-looking eyes, and the eye area is one of the first to age. Explains Dr. Adam Geyer, Kiehl’s consulting dermatologist, “When the upper lid becomes less elastic and less firm, loose skin begins to sag, contributing to a ‘hooded’ eye area appearance. The culmination of these changes can begin to make eyes look tired and smaller. Effectively addressing aging around the complete eye area requires a 360-degree approach.”

Fortunately, it’s now possible to do more than ever to counteract the signs of eye aging, like sagging, crow’s-feet and under-eye wrinkles, because the chemists at Kiehl’s Since 1851 have developed a new “super smart” 5-in-1, anti-aging solution for eyes. Super Multi-Corrective EyeOpening Serum can visibly smooth, lift, firm, hydrate and restore youthful shape to eyes with 360-degree correction and clinical results demonstrating 42 percent more open eyes after four weeks of use. It’s at Kiehl’s freestanding stores nationwide, www.kiehls.com/SuperEye-Serum, (800) KIEHLS-2 and select specialty retailers. -(NAPSI)
