Herbaceous Perennials

Herbaceous Perennials

Herbaceous perennials return each year from the base. These plants grow during the warmer months and die back to the ground in colder seasons. Woodlanders offers a selection of hardy and flowering perennials that grow well in a variety of regions and soil types.

Flowering and Native Perennials

This collection includes many native perennials suited to garden beds and natural landscapes. Species like Salvia, Baptisia, and Iris add long-lasting blooms and attract pollinators. For gardeners looking for resilient plants, we also recommend viewing our Sun Lovers and Southeast Natives collections for more sun-tolerant and regionally adapted options.

Rare and Shade-Tolerant Options

Some herbaceous perennials in this collection are rare or less commonly available. Varieties such as perennial Hibiscus and Hosta are ideal for shaded garden areas and bring structure to border plantings. To support unique garden planning, explore related plants in our Woody Plants and Sub-Tropicals collections.

Garden Uses and Compatibility

Herbaceous perennials can be combined with vines, grasses, or bulbs. This allows for layered gardens that support season-long interest. We suggest pairing these plants with selections from our Vines, Grasses and Bamboos, or Bulbs and Tubers collections for visual variety and habitat support.

Edible and Fiery Blooming Companions

Some gardeners include perennials alongside edible plants or bold bloomers. Our Edibles and Fiery Blooms collections feature strong color or function and pair well with many species from this group.

This herbaceous perennial collection supports long-term planting strategies for hobbyists, collectors, and landscape professionals. Each plant is grown with care and suited for gardens that value form, function, and seasonal return.
