At Walter's Greenhouse Cambridge, we have a wide range of perennials available to suit any garden area and conditions, including sunny, shaded, dry, and wet garden areas.
Here's a closer look at some of our most popular types of perennials:
Buy Perennials for Sunny Garden Areas
These plants love the sun and will thrive in areas with plenty of direct sunlight. Some popular options include coneflowers, black-eyed Susan, and daisies. These perennials are perfect for adding bold, sunny colour to your garden and will bloom from spring through fall.
Buy Perennials for Shaded Garden Areas
If your garden has shady areas, don't worry! There are plenty of perennials that love the shade and will thrive in these areas. Some popular options include hostas, ferns, and astilbe. These perennials add delicate beauty and lush greenery to your garden and will provide interest even in the shadiest areas.
Buy Perennials for Dry Garden Areas
Some gardens can be quite dry, especially during periods of drought. If this is the case in your garden, consider planting some drought-tolerant perennials. Some popular options include sedums, succulents, and lavender. These perennials are well adapted to dry conditions and will keep your garden looking beautiful, even during times of drought.
Buy Perennials for Wet Garden Areas
If your garden is prone to standing water or is consistently moist, you'll need perennials that can handle these wet conditions. Some popular options include swamp milkweed, Joe Pye weed, and cardinal flower. These perennials are perfect for adding colourful interest to damp areas of your garden and will help prevent erosion and improve water quality.
