Geranium - Appleblossom
The Geranium Appleblossom, Geranium sanguineum 'Apple Blossom', is a unique variety that offers beautiful soft pink flowers that are complemented by distinct leaf zoning and an upright growth habit. The 'Apple Blossom' has excellent vigor and great landscape performance!   These full-sized plants are very showy in ground beds and containers because of their large, colorful pink blooms and silvery foliage.  Geraniums are grown in almost every region of the country. These plants have succulent leaves and stems and they are commonly called garden geraniums or zonal geraniums.  They are excellent in containers of all types from small pots to large tubs to window boxes.  Combine 'Apple Blossom' with other plants such as petunias and ivy. They do best when planted in ordinary well-drained soil; over fertilization results in excessive foliage and few flowers. Fertilize lightly every 2 weeks. Pinching of the shoots will promote bushiness; remove spent flowers to enhance flowering. 'Apple Blossom' is one of your best choices for use in hanging baskets!   * Hardy * Excellent vigor * Upright growth habit

Hyssop Raspberry Summer, Agastache 'Raspberry Summer' PPAF,  name originates from the Greek word aga, meaning very much, and stachys, meaning spikes, referring to the many flower spikes.  One of the easiest and most rewarding perennials to grow, this award winning 'Raspberry Summer' is a tremendously long bloomer! 'Raspberry Summer' PPAF is a stunning beauty that is adorned with raspberry pink tubular flowers that float above attractive, bright green, fragrant foliage from summer and into fall.  The wonderfully fragrant foliage is deer resistant and forms attractive clumps.

This wonderful raspberry pink 'Raspberry Summer' hyssop is useful for adding a spot of color to the garden late in the season, especially when many other plants begin to fade! * Mildew resistant * Long blooming * Easy to grow

Daylily - Blueberry Candy - DetailsDaylily - Blueberry Candy - Sale Price: $54.95
Hemerocallis Blueberry Candy, Hemerocallis 'Blueberry Candy', is a marvelous reblooming plant with fragrant, soft ivory flowers.  It has a blueberry colored eye and ruffled petals. ‘Blueberry Candy’ blooms profusely in midsummer and then again in late summer when many other perennials are beginning to fade.  Individual flowers last only one day, but since each plant produces many buds, the total blooming time of a well-established clump may last more than a month; attracts butterflies. Use this daylily for color in shrub borders and in perennial beds.  Once established, the daylily can be an excellent groundcover on slopes because it has roots that hold soil against erosion.  ‘Blueberry Candy’ also makes a beautiful floral arrangement. Divide this daylily every 3-5 years, or when the number of flower buds and the size of bloom begin to decline. Daylilies are some of the easiest plants to grow and are a good choice for any gardener.  They will grow in almost any soil and handle drought to wet soil conditions.   Use for stand alone plantings, in borders or in mixed containers and tubs. 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). Fun to have in your garden, this plant is beautiful and will provide many months of color! * Clumping habit * Hardy * Carefree

Hosta - Tropical Dancer - DetailsHosta - Tropical Dancer - Sale Price: $42.75
The Hosta Tropical Dancer, Hosta 'Tropical Dancer', puts on a colorful show with its heart-shaped wavy green leaves. These elongated leaves are trimmed with creamy white margins that are tightly ruffled and serrated; margins brighten to white later in the season. Forming a broad showy clump in the garden, ‘Tropical Dancer’ is a strong grower and produces lavender flowers on upright scapes in the summer. 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.  ‘Tropical Dancer’ is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as specimen or edging plant. 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.  With its great form and ruffled, wavy leaves, this  ‘Tropical Dancer’ hosta almost seems to be in motion! * Heart shaped leaves * Clumping habit * Superb grower

Coreopsis - Crème Brulee - DetailsCoreopsis - Crème Brulee - Sale Price: $39.95
The Coreopsis ‘Crème Brulee’ is new to the market and has bright deep yellow flowers that blooms from June through October.  Belonging to the Tickseed family, ‘Crème Brulee’ has larger flowers than most Coreopsis in its family. (PPAF) ‘Crème Brulee’ has a plant height of 24” and a spread of 18”.  The bright green thread leaf foliage makes a great contrast with the flower color.  The large flowers occur all along the stems rather than just above the foliage, giving a fuller overall appearance. ‘Crème Brulee’ should be planted in full sun.  It is drought-tolerant and tough but does need well-drained soil.  The foliage is mildew-resistant and should be cut backing early and late summer to extend the bloom period. A perfect sun-loving plant, it looks great with any type of grass, in borders or mass plantings in sunny gardens. Butterflies find it irresistible and deer leave it alone.  Since it thrives in poor soil and has low water needs, ‘Crème Brulee’ will easily add beauty to any trouble spot in your garden! * Mildew resistant * Drought tolerant * Long blooming
