favorite perennials that will grow in zone 5

What are your favorite perennials that grow in zone 5? I'm looking for the ten best (easiest and most popular) flowering perennials to grow, keep, sell or give away. I'd like to start them from seed or liners, grow them in grow boxes for one year then take them out and plant them elsewhere. So far on my list are shasta daisies, coneflowers, black eyed susans, liatris and day lilies. Please offer your suggestions. We all have our favorites and I'd like to hear yours....Gary

I'm in love with cleome, gaura, Walker's Low catmint/nip, blue-eyed grass, pansies, artemesia silver mound (but looking pitiful with all the recent rain), cupid's dart, obedient plant, scarlet creeper ... on and on it goes! Some of these may not be readily available as seed.
