Collection: Perennials & Biennials

Perennial flowers and foliage plants return for multiple growing seasons, building structure, color, and character as the garden matures. Biennials usually spend their first season developing roots and leaves, then flower and produce seed in their second. Together, they offer an enormous range of bloom shapes, foliage textures, heights, and garden uses—from low edging plants to towering cottage-garden spires.

Annie’s collection includes unusual, heirloom, California native, and pollinator-friendly perennial plants alongside distinctive biennials. Use them to create layered borders, habitat gardens, cutting gardens, containers, and naturalistic plantings. Combining varieties with different bloom seasons can extend flowers and pollinator activity from spring into fall, while persistent foliage and seed heads can add off-season interest.

Light, water, soil, climate, and dormancy needs vary widely, so check each product page before choosing. Give every plant enough room for its mature habit and group compatible varieties for easier care.
