The Perennial Experts

Perennial Plants Page »

Eryngium 'Blue Glitter'

We started Alaska Hardy Gardens many years ago because we love perennials. Back then, Alaskan gardeners had a limited choice of perennial plants and ornamental grasses. But, over the years, we have greatly expanded the number of cold-hardy varieties available in Alaska. We call these plants Alaska Hardy® Perennials. Our own line of plants is your assurance these star performers are locally grown, are cold hardy and of high quality.We keep adding more new perennials and ornamental grasses every year. Take a look for yourself.

Lilium tigrinium

Lilies have been around forever and there are many good reasons why they deserve a spot in your garden. For this upcoming year, we continue to grow many selections of Asiatic and L.A. hybrid lilies and two special hard-to-find lilies: a Double Tigrinium lily (pictured here) and one Martagon variety.


Primula Specialists

Primula 'Lismore Jewel'

With more than 600 Primula (primrose) varieties divided into 23 sections and probably 250 that are good for Alaska gardens, there has to be at least one — or 10 — primrose perfect for your garden. What other genera can boast so many varieties that are great in so many different conditions? They usually are completely disease and pest free. Some love wet areas, some are great in rock gardens, while some bloom in early spring and others late into fall. And for sizes, the sky is the limit, from tiny two-inch ones to the taller candelabra types.

Alaska Hardy® Roses

Rosa 'Bonica'

Over the past few years since we introduced cold-hardy roses, our sales and selections have exploded. There's nothing like success and that is exactly what has happened to our Alaska Hardy® Zone 2 and 3 rose selections. Alaska Hardy Gardens now sells at least 35 rose varieties! Pictured here is a real beauty, Rosa Bonica.

Clematis

Alaska Hardy Gardens is pleased to offer a growing selection of cold-hardy vines, ideal for many garden situations. We grow hardy kiwi, American bittersweet, many outstanding varieties of clematis, honeysuckle and more.


Shrubs and Trees

Cornus

Click on the link here for our shrub and tree list. The most recent trend to design shrubs into our perennial beds has presented Alaska Hardy Gardens with a challenge. I have traveled extensively to search out sources and spent many years now trialing different varieties. We are very pleased to offer a great line-up of beautiful conifers, shrubs, and trees.
