HARDY PERENNIALS<br />
This list includes perennials, ferns,<br />
ornamental grasses, ground covers and<br />
alpines. All plants are cold hardy in Z<strong>on</strong>e<br />
5 except where noted. Even the marginal<br />
plants can be grown successfully with<br />
the careful selecti<strong>on</strong> of just the right site.<br />
For example, we had Beg<strong>on</strong>ia evansiana<br />
(Z<strong>on</strong>e 6) growing next to our north side<br />
foundati<strong>on</strong> for 10 years. This is known as<br />
‘site specific’ hardiness and relies <strong>on</strong> good<br />
fortune more than anything else.<br />
The genus name is followed by the<br />
comm<strong>on</strong> name, if any, and the variety<br />
name is followed by the flower color or<br />
leaf color, if applicable. These plants are<br />
grown in at least <strong>on</strong>e of the following<br />
pots unless otherwise noted:<br />
1.01 qt / 957 ml (1 trade quart)<br />
3.69 qt / 3.49 l (1 trade gall<strong>on</strong>)<br />
This key will help describe the different<br />
categories.<br />
