    My Favorite Easy-Care Perennial Flowers

    Want some low maintenance flower garden ideas? Today I'm sharing a tour of our Canadian flower garden and my favorite easy-care perennial flowers!

    Favorite Easy-Care Perennial Flower Ideas

    Take a video tour of my easy-care perennial flower garden at summertime:

    Featured Easy-Care Perennial Flowers in my Canadian (Zone 3) Garden: 

    1. Peonies - they take a while to establish, but they come back faithfully every year despite our cold winters. I have Alexander Fleming and Sarah Bernhardt peonies that bloom late June to early July.
    2. Morden Roses - these are hardy to Zone 2 and are gorgeous and full. They bloom abundantly from June to late September. I have the Morden Blush and Morden Belle varieties.
    3. Catmint - this perennial grows well here and is easy to divide when it gets larger. Its long purple stems contrast beautifully with my pink flowers.
    4. Irises - these are hardy and multiply quickly. They bloom in early June before the other flowers.
    5. Therese Bugnet Rose - a large shrub rose that grows quickly with bright pink blooms.
