Hosta - Hudson Bay
The Hosta Hudson Bay, Hosta 'Hudson Bay', displays a fabulous gradation of color with its wide, bright blue margins and lime green jetting.  These colors are a beautiful contrast to the dramatic cream white middles! 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

Daylily - Montego Melonâ„¢ - DetailsDaylily - Montego Melonâ„¢ - Sale Price: $42.75
The Daylily 'Montego Melon', Hemerocallis 'TP 06-13', is an early-blooming daylily with soft yellow blooms on a more compact plant.  Because of its long bloom season, and multiple flowering cycles, this daylily is perfect for mass plantings and perennial beds! The compact grass-like foliage is rust resistant and matures to 15-18 inches, so it is considered a low growing daylily.  This rugged, adaptable, vigorous perennial endures in a garden for many years with little or no care. Daylilies adapt to a wide range of soil and light conditions.  They establish quickly, grow vigorously, and survive winters with little or no injury.  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.   Divide 'Montego Melon' every 3-5 years, or when the number of flower buds and the size of bloom begin to decline; divide in early spring.   Plant daylilies in sites that provide well-drained soil and plenty of sun. The 'Montego Melon' daylily 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). Use 'Montego Melon' 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! * Vigorous grower * Rugged * Rebloomer
