The best perennial plants for pots are ones that offer a long season of interest and are winter hardy, so you can rely on them to return again the following summer. Perennials work really well for informal displays that have a more natural feel and fit in with wildlife-friendly planting styles.
Container gardening has no limits when it comes to mixing up your planting styles and using some of the best perennial plants means you can enjoy a display from one summer to the next – and save on buying new bedding plants. Many perennials can be easily propagated too, making it easy to refresh your pots next summer or you can expand your display with your plants for free, by repeating your most successful planting combinations.
