What's the best perennial flowering plant that blooms all summer and deer resistant for the state of Illinois?


Question:

Answers:
Marigolds are not perennials but all you have to do is pick the dead heads & store in a paper sack (the spent flowers becomes a seedpod) and replant next year. They are wonderful for blooming for so long, require little care & adapt to most all soils, as well as drought & rain. Very easy & neat as well as pretty. I am not wild about the smell but it does keep alot of animals away. Very long blooming period as well.


MARIGOLDS.
Hydrangea's - they are absolutely beautiful and they come back every year and last through the summer and fall. I have become quite addicted to the beauty of them and you can even change the colors of them by adding acidic plant food.
