These super-easy perennials require nothing special in the way of soil and a minimum of maintenance. The blooms are available in a multitude of colors and heights; each flower lasts only a day but each stalk produces several blooms. Most varieties flower for a three-week period; combine early-, mid- and late-season varieties to have color from early summer to fall. 'Stella D'Oro' repeat blooms. Divide every three to four years. USDA Zones: 3 to 10 (Pictured: 'Stella d'Oro')

This tough summer-blooming perennial performs best in average to poor soil and likes things on the dry side. In fact, give it too much moisture or a soil too rich, and the foliage flops. Varieties come in bright yellow, white, orange, red, pink and coral. Attracts butterflies and hummingbirds. USDA Hardiness Zones: 3 to 10
