Perennial Library

Perennials are plants that unlike most annuals rebloom season after season without reseeding or replanting. Perennials usually die to the ground during colder months but return to full form in the spring. Some cold sensitive perennials may be considered annuals in the northern parts of the state and need extra mulching to protect their root system from freezing. At A & H Landscaping, our landscaping team will suggest the best perennial combination best suited to the needs of your yard and climate conditions.

Below you will find our perennial library of plants that we suggest on a daily basis. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a free estimate, please contact A & H Landscaping at 214-729-6933. For your convenience, you may also request services from this site.
