10 Perennials to Rival Annuals - Blooms All Summer

Does it have to be a trade-off between lifespan and seasonal color? I admit, when it comes to a peony or Siberian iris, annuals are far more colorful and floriferous over the length of the season. But many perennials come out swinging with early blooms in the cool season, and others naturally bloom all summer, repeat if deadheaded, or round out the seasonal color with foliage & form.

In this video, I'll breeze through 10 perennials that I think take top marks for long-lasting color interest in the garden. If you have any recommendations of your own (I for sure know this selection isn't exhaustive) feel free to drop them in the comments for other viewers.
