Hosta - Fireworks
Hosta Fireworks, Hosta 'Fireworks' (PP#16,062), is a dwarf, narrow margined, small sport of Hosta 'Loyalist'.  It has very unique, upright foliage! The creamy white leaves of 'Fireworks' are very narrow and have a two-tone green margin that streak around the edges.  At only 10 high, Hosta 'Fireworks' is perfect for the smaller garden.  The very pretty light lavender flowers appear on 12 inch scapes in midsummer.  Add a small sized blast of thick green and white leaves to your garden with this hardy hosta, and it will regale you with delicate lavender flowers in early summer! This low care perennial is ideal for shady positions.  'Fireworks' grows 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. High-filtered or dappled sunlight is necessary for clean, healthy growth.   Morning sun is tolerable and will help to intensify the leaf colors, but hot afternoon sun is usually deadly to hostas! 'Fireworks' is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as specimen or edging plant. With its incredible two-toned foliage, this charming, small hosta will certainly be outstanding in a small shaded area! * Dwarf * Hardy * Upright habit

Daylily - Yellow Lollipop - DetailsDaylily - Yellow Lollipop - Sale Price: $49.95
The Daylily Yellow Lollipop, Hemerocallis 'Yellow Lollipop', produces lightly ruffled, medium yellow flowers that bloom from early spring to frost! The Yellow Lollipop is a compact re-blooming daylily that matures at 12 inches high.  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 'Yellow Lollipop' for mass plantings, edging, in borders or in mixed containers and tubs.   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. 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). Receiving many awards, 'Yellow Lollipop' is a charming and delightful daylily that would look stunning when planted in front of displays of ‘Woodside Amethyst’.  What an amazing contrast of color they would create together! * Long blooming * Compact, dwarf * Durable

Coneflower -  Irresistible - DetailsConeflower - Irresistible - Sale Price: $42.75
Echinacea Irresistible (Coneflower), Echinacea 'Irresistible', is a coneflower that is simply irresistible with its 3½ blossoms that emerge pastel yellow with a large copper cone.  It then quickly develops into double coral pink flowers with a slightly deeper pink pom-pom. As this Echinacea matures, the changing pattern of colors continues to peachy pink ray petals and lighter pom-pom centers of citron yellow.  ‘Irresistible’ should be planted in masses for an outstanding touch of “peachy” beauty in your yard! The huge, intense flowers are supported on strong stems.  These long lasting flowers attract butterflies and hummingbirds and are great in cut flower arrangements!  Providing large 3 blooms, ‘Irresistible’ should be planted in masses for an outstanding touch of beauty in your yard! Divide clumps when they become overcrowded (about every 4 years).  ‘Irresistible’ usually reblooms without deadheading, but if spent flowers are removed, this procedure will encourage continued beautiful blooms and improves general appearance. Highly fragrant, this coneflower keeps coming all summer on tall plants with excellent branching.  This plant is deer resistant. If you leave some spent blooms on the plants in fall their seeds provide winter food for birds.  You can enjoy the dried seed heads as well, because they will provide architectural interest in the winter. ‘Irresistible’ is a one of a kind double coneflower that provides a change of colors. You can’t beat the intensity of the colors, which will bring a brilliant display to a sunny location! * Fragrant * Hardy * Long lasting blooms

Daylily - Cherry Candy - DetailsDaylily - Cherry Candy - Sale Price: $54.95
Hemerocallis Cherry Candy, Hemerocallis 'Cherry Candy', is an extended bloomer, so its flowers will remain open for at least 16 hours apiece! The lightly scented, 4¼ bloom of ‘Cherry Candy’ opens flat to show off its prominent bright red eye.  The rounded overlapping petals are a light golden orange and are lined with a very fine red edging.   The flowers appear on strong, well-branched scapes; can produce up to 30 buds per scape! 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; attracts butterflies.  ‘Cherry Candy’ also makes a beautiful floral arrangement.   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.   Daylilies grow best when planted in full sun to partial shade.  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. Because it is a highly performing daylily with gorgeous color and a long blooming habit, ‘Cherry Candy’ is a pleasure to have in any garden! * Long blooming * Hardy * Carefree
