Perennial Planting

What This Service Involves

Perennials are the backbone of a lasting garden – plant them once and they return each year, spreading and improving over time. We select varieties suited to your light, soil, and the Pacific Northwest climate, arrange them for staggered bloom and complementary form, and plant them properly with amended soil so they establish strong roots. Over a few seasons a perennial bed fills in beautifully and needs far less replanting than annual color, making it both attractive and economical.
