Excerpt from Making a Garden of Perennials HE successful garden has a permanent basis. There must be some flowers that appear year after year, whose posi tion is fixed and whose appearance can be counted on. The group classed as peren nials occupies this position and about flow ers of this class is arranged all the various array of annuals and bulbs. These last act as reinforcements in rounding out the gar den scheme. Perennials are plants that live on year after year if the conditions surrounding them are congenial.
