Hidden Treasure Tuesday

It's time for a Hidden Treasure Tuesday find!! Perennials! Do you know the difference between Annuals and Perennials? Here's how I remember. Annuals need to be planted ANNUALLY. They do not come back on their own, unless you get an annual that will re seed itself. (like poppies)
Perennials you plant PERMANENTLY. Plant one and done, so to speak! Perennials come back every year, and some of them are evergreen, meaning they don't loose their foliage in Winter. One of our favorite perks to perennials is that they are BLOOMING!! Perennials are some of the first flowers of every Spring. Here are a few examples!
Bleeding Hearts enjoy shade and moist areas.
Rock Foil or Saxifraga
 The name Saxifrage means "rock breaker." Imagine these beauties breaking through the crevices of your rocky area...
Brunnera is another shade loving early Spring bloomer
 Want to add something unique and interesting? Try one of our ornamental grasses!! This one is a black Mondo grass. No need to adjust your screen!! It really is BLACK!!
