Perennials

Offering unique and exclusive perennial plants has been the foundation of how High Country Gardens' has built its reputation. Our plants are chosen for their beauty, hardiness, and their ability to create natural habitat. We are particularly well known for our drought resistant/drought tolerant perennials (xeric plants), that once established will need very little water to thrive. We have hundreds of water-thrifty and native plants to choose from, many developed exclusively for High Country Gardens by our founder and chief horticulturist, David Salman.

Each blossom is made up of crimson petals arranged in bristly bracts, above foliage that forms a tight clump. ‘Mars Midget’ is very striking when planted en masse, and as a cut flower. Plant several to create a large colorful splash – they look beautiful paired with silvery leaved companions. This plant is a favorite for gardens or meadows with damp soil.
