Plants in a perennial garden must be as appealing throughout the entire year as they are in full flower. Certainly some plants provide enduring pleasure with their changing color and shape as the months pass, but others fail to pass the test. The ten perennials celebrated here--Rocky Mountain columbine, purple coneflower, Caucasian peony, glove thistle, bronze fennel, Lenten rose, pasque flower, cardoon, sea holly, and golden groundsel--were all selected for their innate and enduring beauty, a beauty that will carry through every season. Brilliant color photographs depict each crucial stage of their development, in bud, bloom, foliage, and seedhead, while the eloquent, informative text describes each plant in detail, providing its cultural and botanical history as well as complete growing information. The result? An album that will inspire a garden as exquisite in the fall and winter as it is during the height of the flowering season.
