Introducing the Exciting New Perennials from Proven Winners

🌸Proven Winners has introduced 30 new trial perennials, including the luminary flocks and heliopsis.

🌿Walters Gardens, the perennial nursery for Proven Winners, plays a key role in growing and developing the perennials.

🌼Gardening enthusiasts can find some of these new perennials at their local independent garden centers.

🌺The plants are being trialed at Creekside Nursery in North Carolina to test their performance in different growing conditions.

🌞The unique Firefly series offers sun-loving plants, such as Firefly Fuchsia and Firefly Red Pops, that attract pollinators.

Where can I find these new perennials?

—You can find some of these new perennials at your local independent garden centers. For more information and to explore the full range, check out Walters Gardens' website.

Are these perennials suitable for my zone?

—These perennials have been trialed in North Carolina (Zone 8A), but it's important to consider your specific growing conditions. Some perennials may thrive better in different zones, so it's always a good idea to do your research or consult with local experts.

Do these perennials require full sun or shade?

—The light requirements vary depending on the specific perennial. Some, like the Firefly series, prefer full sun, while others, like the Spider's Wort, may do well in both sun and shade. It's best to read the plant tags or do some research to ensure you provide the ideal growing conditions for each plant.

How do perennial salvias attract pollinators?

—Perennial salvias have beautiful blue flowers that are irresistible to pollinators, especially butterflies. The flowers provide a large landing pad for butterflies and other pollinators, making them an excellent choice for attracting wildlife to your garden.

Can I grow baptisia in my garden?

—Baptisia is a stunning perennial that can thrive in many gardens. However, it's important to give it plenty of space to grow, as its deep root system and mound-like growth pattern require room. Before planting, consider your garden's size and make sure you can accommodate this long-lived and drought-tolerant plant.
