Sun loving perennial garden plants & landscaping design in Delaware require full sun for peak performance, that’s at least 6 hours sun light per day
Perennial Plants that Worship the Sun
There are hundreds, most likely thousands, of perennials that absolutely love the sun. These plants require “full” sun to give peak performance – that’s at least 6 hours of uninterrupted sun light per day. Many sun lovers attract butterflies and hummingbirds and others make great cut and dried flowers. Although all these plants have the sun loving feature in common, they vary greatly in soil requirements, colors, shapes, textures and size. Use the following table as a guideline.
