When are perennials at their lowest price? I suppose that there is a

summer?

Not necessarily. Fall is the best time to plant perennials and
through out the year there are always mark down tables at garden
centers. Experienced gardeners would know if said clearance items
were worth while or not.

Late summer, early fall can be great times. And knowing your seller and
his/her habits is useful. A favorite of mine can be counted on marking down
spring bloomers after bloom time.
