Tulips, hiacinths, all lilies, all bulbs are perennial. After a few yrs dig up and separate bulbs, they have babies.

Some of my favorites are coreopsis, hollyhocks, shasta daisies, delphiniums, yarrow, columbine, dianthus, bleeding heart, California blue bells, Rocky Mountain penstemon, Sweet Williams, coneflowers, cranebill, lavendar, flax, lupine, galardia, guara, bee balm, peonies, roses, poppies, russian sage, and Mexican primrose. Also, don’t forget about native grasses — they add texture and movement to flower gardens. if you have shady areas you can also include ferns and hostas.
I am also fond of cosmos and sunflowers. They are annuasl, but they reseed easily and come back year after year.
The suggestion to look at the Park Seek website is a good one. Another good site is Wildseed Farms. They specialize in wildflower seeds which you can purchase in individual varieties or in mixes that are designed for the area you live in. I used to live on a one-acre parcel by a lake. We planted huge drifts of wildflowers around the property and they were gorgeous — people would stop and take pictures of the wildflowers with the lake in the background.
