Perennials have always been a major crop for us at Kathan Gardens. We strive to carry a large selection for our customers to choose from to suit their needs whether it be full sun to full shade. This year we also introduced more native plants that are beneficial to the gardener, our pollinators, and local wildlife.
We grow well over 5000 pots of perennials on from seedlings, bare root divisions, and small plants. While our peonies are planted in the fall, other varieties are started in March and April in our greenhouses until they can go outside in May.
Today’s gardener wants to see results quickly, so we strive to always have big healthy blooming plants to choose from throughout the season. We will try to help you make good choices for your garden conditions and color preferences from varieties proven to thrive in your area.
Some of the more popular perennial plant categories include Hosta, Daylily, Iris, Echinacea, Peony, Ferns, Grasses, Phlox, Heuchera, Astilbe and many more. Each genus can contain literally thousands of specific varieties. Part of the joy of gardening with perennial plants is discovering new plant introductions from family, friends and our knowledgeable staff.
