Hosta - Key West - Sale Price: $42.75 Hosta Key West, Hosta 'Key West', is a member of the 'Americana Series'.  This very large, fast growing Hosta is a cross between Hosta 'Elatior' and 'High Noon'. Lavender flowers are formed in early summer.  Hosta 'Key West' is a lovely plant with its smooth heart shaped leaves and pleasing gold color.  The bright gold, heart-shaped leaves are very large and form a clump of foliage that when mature, will reach over 6' across! 'Key West', is a low care perennial and is ideal for shady positions and is one of the most popular for landscapes.  It is best to keep areas around hostas clear of excess leaf debris to reduce the presence of slugs and snails. It grows well in moist, well-drained, highly organic soils with a pH between 5.5 and 7.5.  Sandy loam is better than clay because it provides more aeration for the roots. Plant 'Key West', in an area that receives the right amount of light.  The leaves need some morning sun to bring out the best coloration; too much sun will burn the leaves. Being one of the largest gold Hostas, 'Key West' is a shockingly beautiful and superb shade plant with a tropical flair! * Large plant * Low maintenance * Slug resistant

Astilbe - Delft Lace - Sale Price: $59.95 Astilbe Delft Lace, Astilbe 'Delft Lace' PPAF, will brighten up your landscape with its beautiful lacy foliage. The waxy foliage is a deep blue-green with a light silver overlay that gives it a unique look, and added excitement, as a seasonal garden player. This new variety is reported to have more attractive foliage and stronger flower stems than 'Peach Blossom'.   Its bright-red stems rise above blue-green leaves, holding plumes of apricot-pink flowers trimmed with deep salmon pink buds. Astilbes are long-lived perennials that are most comfortable when grown in rich soil and light shade to filtered sun.  They will grow in full shade, but will not bloom as prolifically there. Though they are easy to grow, Astilbes have one critical requirement--lots of water.  Plants must have consistently moist soil; dryness leads to a quick demise, especially in the sun. Fertilize Astilbes in late spring before flowering starts.  Wait to cut back the old foliage until spring; it will help protect the plant from winter damage. If the flowers are picked when half open, the blooms are useful for cutting and make gorgeous bouquets. The more sun this rugged and beautiful plant gets, the darker the foliage!  Plant ‘Delft Lace’ where everyone can enjoy its brilliant colors! * Unique waxy foliage * Easy to Grow * Bright red stems

Ligularia - Osiris Cafe Noir - Sale Price: $42.75 Ligularia Osiris Café Noir, Ligularia dentata 'Osiris Café Noir', emerges in the spring with deep purple-black foliage, morphs to shades of bronze, and then matures to an olive green. ‘Osiris Café Noir’ has thick, leathery leaves with serrated edges. The lovely golden flowers appear in late summer above the tall 20” stems.  Using it as a focal point, this plant makes a great specimen in a yard, and also looks especially attractive in a container on the patio! Ligularia should be planted in full shade in a well-drained area.  It must have moist soil and should never be allowed to dry out.  Use Ligularia in group or mass plantings, woodland gardens, or along streams, ponds, pools or bog gardens. ‘Osiris Café Noir’ makes an extremely bold statement in the garden, and its best ornamental feature is its leaves.  The flowers and leaves make wonderful cut bouquets. ‘Osiris Café Noir’ generally retains good color throughout the growing season! * Daisy-like flowers * Outstanding foliage * Dwarf
