Daylily - Chicago Orchid - Sale Price: $49.95 The Daylily 'Chicago Orchid', Hemerocallis 'Chicago Orchid', is a favorite summer blooming perennial with large clumps of long grass-like leaves with showy clusters of orchid lily-like flowers on tall stems. A midseason bloomer, this 'Chicago Orchid' plant produces several flower stalks with up to a dozen buds.  The buds open in series, but a flower lasts only a day, giving the plant its common name, Daylily! Daylilies grow vigorously, help suppress weeds, and are generally free from pests and disease.  They thrive in full sun or light shade and tolerate many types of soil.  In areas that receive less than 6 hours of sun during the day, your daylilies will probably produce fewer and smaller blooms, and the foliage may not be as robust. Divide every 3-5 years, or when the number of flower buds and the size of bloom begin to decline.   Planted together in large numbers, they quickly crowd out weeds and make a carefree and colorful ground cover.   Because it blooms all summer, has gorgeous color, and an attractive, clumping foliage, ‘Chicago Orchid’ is a pleasure to have in any garden! * Showy clusters of flowers * Clumping habit * Favorite

Hibiscus - Turn of the Century - Sale Price: $106.95 The Hibiscus 'Turn of the Century', is a beautiful bi-colored knock out! 'Turn of the Century' has pinwheel shaped, dark-red to light pink to white flowers, spreading to 7 inches.  This 6 foot tall and robust plant blooms over a long period and has beautiful maple-like leaves; shrub-like foliage.   'Turn of the Century' will be beautiful in a large container or as the feature plant in the border.   It can be used as a temporary screen or tall hedge.  It would also be useful in low spots or wet areas in the landscape; effective along streams or ponds. The individual flowers last only one day, but one or more flowers usually open each day, in succession, over a long mid-summer to early fall bloom period.  All summer long you'll enjoy hundreds of these beautiful flowers, along with the many butterflies, bees and hummingbirds that this plant attracts. This hardy hibiscus will die back to the ground every winter and emerge from the ground in the middle to late spring season; cut back to 4-6 from the ground in the spring.   'Turn of the Century' grows well in any fertile, well-drained soil with ample moisture.   Do not allow to dry to the wilting point.  Be patient; hibiscus can be slow to emerge in spring.  For best performance, plant in full sun in moist soil, before the heat of the summer. 'Turn of the Century' hibiscus is valued for its late summer display! * Large flowers * Drought tolerant

Astilbe ‘Rheinland’ blooms in midsummer and is 24” tall and has a plant width of 18”. Do not allow Astilbe ‘Rheinland’ to dry out since it prefers moist, humusy, organically rich soils.  It is most successfully grown in a shady area, but can tolerate some morning sun. A moist, well-drained area is a key feature for growing a healthy plant.  In order to keep Astilbe looking good for the next year, do not cut it back in the winter, (the old foliage helps protect the plant from winter damage), but prune in early spring. Astilbe is considered to be deer resistant and will attract hummingbirds. ‘Rheinland’ Astilbe can be used as cut flowers to make grand bouquets.   Plant this showy perennial for beautiful summer color in shady areas.   You will be delighted to see how this plant forms a graceful perennial border, or add to shade gardens with hosta’s and ferns! * Feathery blooms * Showy * Shade

Being a sport of Eskimo Pie, ‘Hudson Bay’ is a much more flashy variegated plant, and its foliage remains bright all summer.  It displays short spikes of pure white flowers in early summer that are very attractive to hummingbirds. Plant this strong, vigorous tricolored beauty where everyone can enjoy it! 'Hudson Bay' is a low care perennial and is ideal for shady positions, tubs and patio pots, and one of the most popular landscape uses.  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 'Hudson Bay' in an area that receives the right amount of light.  The leaves need some morning sun to bring the rich  color out; too much sun will burn the leaves.  'Hudson Bay' is a gracefully mounded plant that will add rich color from spring until frost! * Slug resistant * Strong and vigorous * Tricolored foliage
