🌿 What Are Herbaceous Plants?

Herbaceous plants are soft-stemmed, non-woody plants that typically die back in winter and regrow each spring. They include a mix of perennials, annuals, and biennials, offering rich variety and flexibility in your garden design.

These plants are loved by gardeners for their vibrant flowers, lush foliage, and ability to suit everything from sunny borders to shaded corners. Plus, they’re perfect for pollinators!
