Perennials are kind of plants that live for years and mostly grow little buds that bloom into roses of different colors. Perennials grow through different seasons of the year; it depends on the type of the plant. Some of them could be just inches high and others grow up to 2-3 feet. The common characteristic among them is that all of them are able to bloom during bad weather and even lack of water. Let us see some of them and you can choose two or three that fit to grow together.
Threadleaf Tickseed
This flower could be planted at any time from summer to fall; it does not matter whether it is exposed to sun or shade even if the temperature dropped below zero the plant will not be affected. It grows up to 18 inches high and is mostly yellow.
Purple Coralbells
If you want to plant the Corabells do it in the summer. It grows up to fourteen inches, the leaves of which are attractive because of their wrinkles and the little purple flowers hardly visible to the eye. Like the Tickseed, if the temperature dropped below zero it is still fine as it does not need much of Sun.
Bigroot Geranium
The Bigroots grow in the shade and are not affected by bad weather like lack of water or extreme heat, either way, its pink flowers will continue to bloom. It is important to mention that animals do not like this plant because of its lack of taste, which makes it the perfect perennial plant.

Black-Eyed Susan

Pink Astilbe
