Perennials

Fuss-free plants that flourish for years.

Perennials are a flower garden’s backbone, providing beautiful color, texture and form. They are easy-care, dependable performers that come back every year. They also are:

Uncommonly colorful thanks to foliage and/or flowers
Trialed and tested for proven performance
Grow bigger and better with each growing season

Friendly and knowledgeable staff! Great selection of houseplants! Fun place to go spend an hour or two wondering the many plants and garden decor.

Effinger consistently delivers excellent customer service. They also have plenty of varieties of whatever plant, tree, shrub, etc you are looking for. They carry local greenery choices. That's often not thought of when looking for trees or shrubs. However, you'll know those will work in your yard since they are native to the area. They also have other types not native. You can purchase every type of soil amendments here. There is a large assortment of water plants for your pond. Go check them out before buying at the chain stores. You will not be disappointed.
