More Variety, More Opportunity

Bailey Nurseries is excited to expand its perennial program this spring. As industry trends continue to favor sustainable, long-lasting landscape solutions, perennials are regaining prominence, presenting a significant opportunity for retailers, landscapers, and garden centers.

Our expansion is designed to enhance product diversity, strengthen market competitiveness, and meet the rising demand for low-maintenance, high-impact perennial varieties. As perennials reclaim their place in our nursery, we are reintroducing traditional bestsellers alongside new cultivars. We work to stay ahead of trends, ensuring you always have access to top-tier selections.

This season, we’ve curated a dynamic mix of high-performance cultivars that align with consumer preferences like vibrant color, durability, and pollinator-friendly landscapes. Our newest introductions include:

  • Baptisia Decadence® Deluxe Pink Truffles – A premium selection from the Baptisia Decadence® series, offering robust growth, drought tolerance, and striking pink flower spikes.
  • Echinacea Kismet® Intense Orange – A standout coneflower with large, long-lasting blooms in warm tones, designed for high retail appeal and landscape resilience.
  • Frosty Fire Dianthus – A vibrant red dianthus with a compact growth habit, perfect for border plantings and high-impact retail displays.
  • Heucherella Golden Zebra – A unique hybrid featuring bold, golden foliage with striking red veins, offering high visual appeal in mixed plantings and shaded landscapes.
  • Monarda Sugar Buzz® Grape Gumball – A compact, mildew-resistant bee balm with deep purple blooms, ideal for attracting pollinators while offering strong garden performance.
