perennials


Explanation:
Perennial flowers are those that continue to grow year after year after remaining dormant throughout the winter. Annuals typically are planted in the spring and summer months, bloom for the season, and then die.

neutral  John Speese: perennial = mehrjaehrig. Not all perennials are necessarily Dauerblueher. Many have a short bloom period, even though the plant itself may live for years.nbo

neutral  Steffen Walter: With John, and "perennials" is normally the equivalent of "Stauden".

steadfast bloomer


Explanation:
steadfast (definition): staying the same for a long time and not changing quickly or unexpectedly.

"Midsummer often finds gardeners searching for a steadfast bloomer to fill empty spots in a floral border."
https://www.pressdemocrat.com/news/2237417-181/mccreary-yarr...

"... It lends itself to be cut in any shape, whether formal or informal, not affecting this steadfast bloomer one bit."
http://www.commonpalms.com/plantlist/shrubs/0shrubs.html

"I remember reading an article in which the author used it in a container or hanging basket instead of annuals. I plan to try this because it is such a steadfast bloomer for me."
