Perennials That Bloom Pink Flowers

    Small Blooms

    • For a hint of pink that peeks through your garden in the shape of tiny flowers, consider choosing pink Lily of the Valley. This plant boasts of rows of small, bell-shaped flowers that delicately bloom from the center of the plant. Alpine Pink has a bolder pink hue with flat flowers, each containing five petals. This perennial works well as ground cover for bare garden spots. If either of those don't strike your fancy, consider the showy Wilma Verslot fuchsia variety. This plant works best in a container, and when properly cared for, will bloom deep rose colored blooms with violet centers.

    Large Blooms

    • Many gardeners are not satisfied with a small display of pink from little flowers. If you are looking for bigger and bolder pink perennials go with the Foxglove, Clara Curtis Chrysanthemum or the Raspberry Verbena. The Foxglove grows vertical plumes of tubular-shaped flowers that work well for a bright patch of background color. Closer to the ground, the Clara Curtis mum puts forth sunny, narrow-petaled flowers with canary yellow centers. This variety of mum ranges from a faint pink to light berry hues. The Raspberry Verene is a great choice for gardeners looking for deep rose colors. This perennial grows smaller flowers in large clusters. Each flower has a creamy white center.

    Variegated Blooms

    • Add a rainbow of variety to your garden with perennials that have pink variegated flowers. Dahlia varieties work especially well for a kaleidoscope of colors that blend beautifully with different tints, tones and shades of pink. Plant the Pink Attraction Dahlia for flowers with crisp white centers that bleed into bright pink at the tips of petals. The Alfred Grille Dahlia mimics a sunrise with a yellow center, pale pink and dark pink variegated petals. Alternatively, plant the Pink Tri-Color Dahlia, which has a combination of yellow, white and pink hues within the blooms.

    Other Pink Perennials

    • Extra large blooms such as the Strawberry Candy Daylily, the Anne Arundel Hibiscus or the Rheinland japonica make for show-stopping pops of color within a garden. Plant these blooms in a highly visible area of your garden for the best effect. The Strawberry Candy lily blooms variegated dark to light pink flowers, the hibiscus puts forth wide, ballerina pink blooms, while the Rheinland blooms mounds of watermelon pink stalks of flowers in the center of dark green leaves. Combine some extraordinary pink perennials with smaller or variegated varieties to create an aesthetically pleasing garden.
