Votes:0 Annual and Perennial Flower Selections For North Dakota H322, January 2000 Ron Smith, Extension Horticulturist Barb Laschkewitsch, Agricultural Research Specialist Annuals and perennials are an excellent source of color and accent to North Dakota landscapes. Annuals are used for their continuous flower color throughout most of the growing season. Because North Dakota summers are so unpredictable, it is usually a good idea to use transplants after killing frost threats have passed. Perennials are used for their permanence in the landscape setting, offering specific periods of bloom, relatively low maintenance, and wide adaptability. Where annuals are started anew each growing season, perennials can usually be divided in the spring or fall. These new divisions can either be replanted or give Read More Go to Site

Growing and using them successfully requires a knowledge of life cycle,
cultural requirements, and use. "Hardy" refers to their ability to
withstand low winter temperatures and bloom year after year. A true bulb is defined as a modified, underground stem, usually
surrounded by scalelike, modified leaves, and containing stored food for
the shoots enclosed within. The scales are held together by a hardened
stem tissue, known as the basal plate (at the base of the bulb). Tulip,
daffodil, hyacinth, and lilies are examples of true Read More Go to Site

blooming times have been greatly improved for North Dakota gardeners. They come through
the winter with greater success and their flowering can often be enjoyed as much as two
weeks sooner than in the past. To achieve this dependable blooming and winter hardiness,

proper fertilization. Mums offer a great diversity in plant habit, flower color, and form. This makes them

Askew, Professor Emeritus Peonies are among the most adaptable perennials for North Dakota. They include a variety of flower forms and beautiful colors with attractive foliage that remains long after the flowers have faded. Peonies can serve as an interesting accent along a shrub border, fence or wall; if planted quite close together, a fine informal hedge effect can be created. This works well as a subtle divider between lawn areas, as a shrub-like backdrop for annual flowers, or along a driveway or property line. Peonies can substitute for low growing shrubs in locations where snow may be a problem, since the tops are removed in the fall. Peonies combine we Read More Go to Site
