Violet - Purple Showers - DetailsViolet - Purple Showers - Sale Price: $42.75
Violet Purple Showers, Viola 'Purple Showers', is very appropriately named! The large 2 electric purple flowers will shower your landscape nearly all spring and summer! 'Purple Showers' blooms profusely in spring and then continues with sporadic flowering until fall. The 8 flower stems rise nicely above the foliage and make excellent cut flowers. Violets grow best in cool, moist, shady environments. In the north, plants can tolerate full sun but prefer partial to full shade. Shade from deciduous trees is ideal because the plants growing below receive full sun in the spring, followed by protection from the harsh summer sun once the trees get their leaves. If plants are cut back after the first bloom cycle, they will likely bloom again in the fall. Deadheading spent flowers will prolong the blooming season and promote a new flush of growth. Use this plant as a groundcover or as an edge. It also makes a great container plant! Enjoy the dancing blooms atop the low mounds of glossy green, heart-shaped leaves!

Daylily - Fairy Tale Pink - DetailsDaylily - Fairy Tale Pink - Sale Price: $49.95
The Daylily 'Fairy Tale Pink', Hemerocallis 'Fairy Tale Pink', has a darker pink veining where the blooms originate in the throat region, and then fades towards the tips of the petals; a very delicate shade of pink with interesting color variations.    No one can simply walk by it.  Those who pass by will stop and remark on its colors, ruffled petals, and understated grace! Blooming in midsummer, the flowers are edible.  Hemerocallis are members of the lily family and the blossoms usually last one day, but these clump forming plants, with their gracefully arching strap-shaped leaves, produce enormous numbers of flowers throughout the summer. It is relatively trouble free and grows in almost any soil, as long as it is well drained.  'Fairy Tale Pink', like all daylilies, can survive many harsh conditions that other plants cannot including: polluted city environments, slopes, poor and dry soils, near pavement that is salted in winter, and under Black Walnut trees (not affected by juglone). Divide in early spring.  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.  ‘Fairy Tale Pink’ can be used for stand alone plantings, edging, in borders or in mixed containers and tubs.  Planted together in large numbers, they quickly crowd out weeds and make a carefree and colorful ground cover.It also makes a beautiful floral arrangement. Use this ‘Fairy Tale Pink’ to create large swathes of lovely color in the summer landscape! * Graceful, arching leaves * Heavily ruffled
