15 Best Ground Cover Perennial Plants

Perennials are plants that possess the ability to live for more than two years. These plants are mostly non-woody and blossom during springs and summers falling back to the ground, indicating their dormancy during fall and frost. The cycle of actively growing and flowering and dormancy occurs every year based on the individual longevity of the plants. Although some trees and shrubs live for a significant lifetime, flowering perennials mostly have a lifetime of a couple of years only due to which it is advisable to replace them once in two to three years. Similarly, while a few perennial shrubs and trees have the ability to flaunt their leaves all through the year, some flowering perennials stay through a constant state of dormancy all through the year, except a few weeks during which they bloom. The roots regain their activeness and come back to life, developing new plant tops.

Why Should Perennials Be Grown?

There are many reasons why perennials are the ideal choice for you to grow in your meadows, window boxes, hanging baskets, or as a bedding for your garden. A few are mentioned below to help you realize the merits of perennials.

1. Maintenance of Perennials

Perennials save immense amounts of your time and don’t crave much for your attention, energy, and water. It is ideal for planting them during fall or spring. You don’t have to be worried if your plant did not flower during the first year as during the first year, the plant devotes its attention only in strengthening and anchoring roots due to which flowering might be missed out during that period. Although perennials are low maintenance, perennials need to be periodically checked for weeds while they are growing, and once the plant reaches its maturity, they don’t demand your attention.

2. Investment

Perennials are pocket-friendly as they have greater longevity when compared to the annuals which live only for a year. Perennials multiply every year and also provide you with the added luxury of dividing them and planting them in various other landscapes of your choice by naturalizing.

3. Ornamental Value of Perennials

Perennials are what you need if you want your garden to beam with colors as they have high ornamental value brought by their vibrant flowers and green leaves.

Things To Consider Before Buying A Perennial Plant

Hardiness Zone

Being aware of the hardiness zone of the location in which you are planning to plant is paramount. Although some plants are capable of resisting frost, some plants can die even by the slightest cold breezes. USDA has announced 12 hardiness zones to make people aware of the temperature tolerance of plants.

Planting Season

Perennials need to be planted either during spring or during fall, as these seasons are the times when the plant is either entering the frost dormancy or coming out from the same. This time is highly ideal for the plants as new roots find it easier to strengthen and establish at milder temperatures because of the moisture in the ground.

Height

The perennials are capable of growing up to a maximum height of 60 inches even though most plants start outgrowing from the same height. Planning the exact location of the plant in your garden before planting can enable you to figure out the neighbors of the plant and enable you to grow the plant smoothly.

Sun and Shade

Almost all plants require a certain amount of light for thriving, and over or under exposure to sunlight might have varying impacts on the plant. Analyzing the light conditions that different regions of your garden receive are paramount to provide your plant with the best-growing conditions. Categorize your garden into full sun, shady, and part sun areas. Full sun areas obtain more than six hours of sunlight, part sun areas obtain between four to six hours of sunlight, and the shady regions obtain sunlight for lower than four hours.

Soil Requirements

Perennial plants thrive on fertile soils that are capable of good drainage. This is because good drainage is essential for the strengthening and anchoring of the root system. The moisture level in soil should also be good for the soil to support the plant. Always make sure to choose your perennials based on the location you plant.
