Ideas for Displaying PerennialsWith so many varieties of perennials to choose from, gardeners have almost limitless options for displaying these lovely plants. The following creative gardening ideas will help you get started.Arrange the perennial garden so that you can see and enjoy every plant -- regardless of how small it is. Place the tallest plants in the rear of a border that is viewed exclusively from the front. In an island bed viewed from all sides, place tall plants in the middle.
Work medium-height plants into the middle of a border or island bed, filling out the garden in front of the taller plants. Set small plants up front, where they won't be hidden by taller leaves or flowers. The neat progression of short to tall gives a garden a sense of order and tidiness many people appreciate. Don't be too rigid, however. You can work some medium-size varieties into the plants up front to add interest. Bring a few tall plants forward to break up any tendency to make height organization rigid.
