Another half-hardy perennial I really enjoy is penstemmon. They are so
beautiful, but often can't tolerate my wet soil. The one exception to that
is Blue Midnight, which has lived even through this terribly wet winter.

For mine is just a little old fashioned garden where the
flowers come together to praise the Lord and teach all
who look upon them to do likewise.

Hi,
I am looking for ideas for half hardy perennials that you wouldn't be
without in your gardens. Plants that are worth the effort even though you
may have to replace them year to year despite your attempts to
overwinter. Could you please give me the reason the plant is worth the
effort i.e. growth habit, bloom time, length of bloom season, color etc.
Please post the plant name, hardiness zone (if known), your hardiness zone
and state. I am looking for any and all ideas. I am located in zone 5 but
I would like to see input from all zones.
I hope the the results of this will be interesting for all to see.
Thanks,
Jerry
