Refer to our perennial bloom calendar to help you plan a year full of perennial color. These perennials benefit from the winter protection their fallen foliage provides and survive best if left perennials to prune in the spring. Herbaceous perennials in pots — plants that die back and are dormant in winter — that have been part of your summer container displays need to be protected over the winter if they're going to survive.
