Hosta - Pineapple Punch - DetailsHosta - Pineapple Punch - Sale Price: $42.75
The Hosta Pineapple Punch, Hosta 'Pineapple Punch', has narrow, rippling, extremely ruffled, lance-shaped leaves that start off creamy yellow, and then turn white.  A lovely sport of Pineapple Upsidedown Cake, Pineapple Punch is medium sized with an arching mound. It displays light lavender blossoms on tall flower scapes in late summer.   Since 'Pineapple Punch' is an excellent grower, spreading from underground rhizomes, it makes an outstanding border plant or groundcover! Hostas grow best 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.  It is best to keep areas around hostas clear of excess leaf debris to reduce the presence of slugs and snails.  Plant 'Pineapple Punch' 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.  It is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as specimen or edging plants. For a fantastic look in a shaded area, plant 'Pineapple Punch' in mass plantings for an eye catching ground cover! * Arching mound * Medium sized plant * Underground rhizomes

Euphorbia - First Blush - DetailsEuphorbia - First Blush - Sale Price: $42.75
Euphorbia First Blush, Euphorbia epithymoides 'First Blush' (PP#15,292), is a spectacular cushion spurge with light green leaves that are edged in bright rose-pink and cream from spring into summer. The beautiful, compact mounds are topped with striking bright yellow, almost chartreuse, bracts that appear in spring and gradually mature to match the foliage.   ‘First Blush’ is a deer and rabbit resistant perennial! 'First Blush' grows best in well-drained, poor-to-moderately fertile soil.  Divide every two to three years or as needed.  Late-summer cutback can be beneficial if plants start to birdnest. Use gloves since sap may irritate skin of susceptible individuals. Use it in borders, as an accent or specimen, containers, or rock garden.  Combine ‘First Flush’ with sedum, purple and blue columbine, globeflower, blue fescue grass, or dark-leaved coral bells. ‘First Blush' has an excellent compact mounding habit, and can be cut back by a third after flowering to prevent seeding.  It changes hues with the season, offering good fall interest as well as easy, low maintenance care! * Mounding habit * All season color * Low maintenance
