  • Finding perennials that thrive in Southern gardens can sometimes be challenging due to our high humidity and temperatures both during the day and the night. Today I am sharing with you 15 perennials that have proven themselves to be tough enough to handle whatever our crazy weather throws at them. Grab a cup of coffee and your gardening journal because I know you will discover a few plants that you will want to add to your garden!

    Just a heads up for us southern folks and daylilies. Keep a supply of neem oil as you will encounter leaf rust, which is a special kind of irritation that can make a beautiful plant downright ugly...

    Jenny, I can’t say thank you enough. For the last week I have been searching for this type of video. Texas 9b is a special kind of heat as someone else stated (the devil gets a heat stroke). We need heat tolerant plants. I’m transitioning from annuals to perennials so I don’t have to work as hard. I’ll add several of your recommendations.

      @MsRoRo I am also in zone 9b (New Orleans area) & we have the rain (sometime for weeks), humidity & heat. Some of what I have grown successfully are Vista Bubblegum, Sparkling Amethyst Verbena, Curcuma, Purple & Blue Poterweed Weed, Zinas, Angelonia, Baptisia, Coreopsis, Daylilies, Amaryllis, Agapanthus, & Duranta,

      @@robintranchina6588 this is a good list. I’m going to add baptisea pink lemonade, salvia, hibiscus and lemon jade sedum. I want to add more perennials so I don’t have to continue to buy annuals to the larger beds. I’ll also add some of your suggestions to my pots. This is not helping my budget. Spring hasn’t come yet but it’s already blown out the water.😂

    This came at a perfect time! I just moved from the dry west desert to the north border of Alabama/Georgia. The previous owners planted gorgeous bright pink roses with deep purple foliage in the front yard but we've been warned of the deer. I plan to move these to the backyard which is fenced in but I really wanted a similar colored plant to replace them in the front. The hibiscus you mentioned sounds perfect! There are quite a few other plants I screenshot as well for future reference.

I worry about hurting pollinators but I still have some. I usually use seven dust pellets and they really work well but I just wanted your input on it!!

    Hi Jenny, love your videos. I am in Iowa and wish the bunnies didn't like day lilies as I love them but I think they like them more LOL I am going to get the Spot On Pulmonaria and cross my fingers that the deer and bunnies leave them alone. Thanks for the ideas!!!

      Try sprinkling Repels-All at the base to discourage bunnies.
      I never noticed bunnies chomping on my daylilies, but they like a lot of other things in my garden.

    Thank you, Jenny for this video. I took notes, going to the Proven Winner’s website ASAP😂. I’m in southern WV so it gets hot and humid here but not quite like NC.

    Great ideas to look forward to this next growing season. I wish more garden centers in my area (east Tx) carried PW plants. Thanks Jenny
