What if they came back year after year, so you didn't have to buy and plant them every spring? That's where flowering shrubs , flowering trees , and perennials come in. Choosing the best flowering summer plants for your property can be challenging. Let's break this down a bit to help sort it out. We'll talk about shrubs, trees, and perennial plants. Combining multiple sizes, shapes, and foliage types provide visual interest and diversity in case of pest or disease problems. Summer Flowering Perennial Plants Many perennials flower in summer and some will be put on display for weeks if not months at a time. Perennials are slower to establish than an annual flower like a sunflower, but they will come back yearly. They will grow larger and more impressive with each passing summer. Popular pollinator-friendly perennial plants like our May Night Salvia will provide years of beautiful purple color. Spreading perennial summer flowering plants like our selection of Daylillies can offer a cheerful ground cover with low maintenance.
