Classic Perennial Combo for Sun

Simple and sweet, and easy to repeat. The plants included in this combination are very common and should be easy to locate and relatively inexpensive to purchase. This classic perennial combination for full sun is sure to bring smiles in high summer.

This combination was inspired by reviewing the online inventory of Blooming Junction in Cornelius, Oregon on March 30, 2020. However, all of the plants used are regularly available in many garden centers.
