Clematis - Prince Charles
Clematis Prince Charles, Clematis 'Prince Charles', has incredible flower power! The compact plants bloom profusely for a long time from July through September.  The 4 mauve-blue semi-nodding flowers are deeply ribbed with a slight twisting habit; contrasting yellow anthers. Ideal for a container plant, it is called the poor man's 'Perle d'Azur' because it is a similar blue, but more compact.  It is much more manageable than some of the sprawling varieties. Clematis 'Prince Charles' needs a supporting structure to grow properly but will also grow over large shrubs, over walls, cover stumps, and make perfect cover ups for unsightly service areas. Clematis is easy to grow in a rich, porous, alkaline soil with plenty of room for the roots to spread. Best performance is when the tops are in full sunlight and the roots are shaded, so apply generous mulch or a shallow-rooted ground cover near the base of the vine. Groom this plant after first flowering by cutting back the top one-third to one-half of some stems. Clematis ‘Prince Charles’ is a very reliable performer once established; it takes a season or two to get going! Brilliantly free flowing and compact, Prince Charles a superb choice for the patio or other well-trafficked nighttime garden spots! * Reliable * Vigorous * Great container plant

Hosta - Ripple Effect - DetailsHosta - Ripple Effect - Sale Price: $42.75
The Hosta Ripple Effect, Hosta 'Ripple Effect’, has plenty of bright color that will attract everyone's attention!  Ripple Effect is a unique hosta that is a sport of ‘June’. It produces long, twisted, and narrow gold leaves that have a “ripple” effect.  When the new leaves emerge, they have narrow blue-green margins that blend nicely toward their golden yellow centers.   The foliage makes a transition in the summer: to chartreuse with green margins.  Having lots of appeal, this low horizontal mounding hosta displays its lavender flowers in the summer, rising above its unique foliage. 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 this low care plant 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.  'Ripple Effect’ is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as specimen or edging plant. 'Ripple Effect’ is a unique hosta and has lots of appeal so it will attract attention wherever it is planted! * Twisted and rippled leaves * Horizontal mounding * Mounded habit
