Perry's Perennial Pages

Links-- Specialty Perennial Sources

The following firms provide specialty perennials, by plant group or genus, shipped to home gardeners nationally or worldwide. Only firms and sites fairly easily accessible, with seemingly accurate information at time of checking, and some identification, are listed. This list is reviewed and updated as possible, but is by no means inclusive, is constantly changing, and is not meant to discriminate against those sites not mentioned nor endorse those mentioned.

More links and resources, especially for the larger genera, can be found under the Specific Plants section of Other Perennial Web Sites. The Garden Gates on this site have extensive listings, not just of web sites, for nurseries. Plant societies often have links to specialty sources.  Please also see listings for Perennial Sources, Local Perennial Sources, or Wholesale Perennial Sources.  Check websites for state grower associations for local retailers.
