I do too, Deb. It has always been my understanding perennials return from roots that survive the winter. I would guess that if there were a perfect garden and a perfect climate, no plant would be an annual there.
If I fall in love with an evergreen plant a member recommends as shrub or perennial and that member is in Florida, I may find it tagged as an annual here.
Maybe I am starting to understand why nurseries are refusing to give us decent tags.
edited. Oh bother. I am having some eye issues, with fluctuations in my sight. I have corrected this post, It was a real mess I did not even see just minutes ago. Off the forums today. Jibberish is not cool.
