Customer Favorites from the Large Perennials Collection

  • Bee Balm (Monarda) – Bright red or purple blooms that attract pollinators and add vertical energy
  • Daylily (Hemerocallis) – Sunny rebloomers put on a cheerful summer display

  • Ornamental Grasses – Add movement, texture, and seasonal interest with ease

These tall growers work beautifully in combinations or as standalone specimens.

How To Grow & Care For Large Perennials

Tall and showy doesn’t mean high-maintenance. Here’s how to keep your large perennials thriving:

  • Plant in well-drained soil enriched with compost or organic matter
  • Choose full sun for most, but provide partial shade to full shade for sensitive varieties and cultivars grown in hot regions
  • Stake tall bloomers like Delphiniums or Lilies to prevent flopping
  • Pinch back tips of Chrysanthemums and Asters to promote bushier, denser growth
  • Deadhead regularly to keep plants looking fresh and to encourage more blooms (how-to guide on deadheading)
  • Use the Finger Test to check soil moisture and prevent overwatering

Once established, most large perennials are surprisingly low-maintenance and thrive with minimal intervention.
