Welcome to Wingard’s Perennials
A perennial plant or simply perennial is a plant that lives more than two years. The term is often used to differentiate a plant from shorter-lived annuals and biennials. The term is also widely used to distinguish plants with little or no woody growth from trees and shrubs, which are also technically perennials. These are but a few varieties that we typically have in stock year-round. Please note that supplies of specific items may vary, so you may wish to call ahead to check availability.
