Hosta - Maui Butttercups Hosta Maui Buttercups, Hosta 'Maui Buttercups', is one of the best yellow hostas on the market! The bright, rounded leaves are deeply cupped and corrugated. They have a thick, leathery substance and demonstrate good slug resistance. 'Maui Buttercups' is a nice medium sized hosta that brightens the shade garden, and one of the very best yellow Hostas. It has flared, medium violet flowers that appear on 18 scapes in midsummer. This is a low care perennial and is ideal for shady positions and is one of the most popular for landscapes. 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.

| Sedum - Star Dust - Sale Price: $49.95 Sedum Star Dust, Sedum 'Star Dust', is a pale pink budded succulent sedum with grey-green leaves, topped with large, flat, white flower-heads in late summer.

Star Dust is a valuable late source of nectar for butterflies and bees too. This sedum looks great planted in bold drifts towards the front of a sunny, well-drained border. Seed heads also add some winter interest. It is best to apply a thin layer of compost each spring, followed by a 2-inch layer of mulch to keep soil moist and control weeds.

| Daylily - Siloam Peony Display - Sale Price: $39.95 Hemerocallis Siloam Peony Display, Hemerocallis 'Siloam Peony Display', looks like a peony but lasts much longer than one. The plants are so packed with petals that they look like peonies that bloom in the summer! The fragrant blooms measure up to 6 inches across and have a rose blush band near the center of the flower. These huge fully double, ruffled, peach colored blooms flower in midsummer and then again later in the season. ‘Siloam Peony Display’ will bloom up to 16 hours for a full day, and being an extended bloomer, it produces a continuous big show in your garden with its wonderfully fragrant double flowers. Use this exciting daylily for color in shrub borders and in perennial beds. Once established, it can also be an excellent groundcover on slopes because it has roots that hold soil against erosion; attracts butterflies. ‘Siloam Peony Display’ makes a beautiful “peony looking” floral arrangement. Divide this daylily every 3-5 years, or when the number of flower buds and the size of bloom begin to decline. Deadheading spent buds and removing old scapes will improve overall look, but not improve plant performance. 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. ‘Siloam Peony Display’ produces exotic blooms one after another for several weeks! * Peony-like flowers * Extended bloomer |

It 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; provide regular fertilization during the growing season. Be careful to not over water until plants show signs of growth! For best performance, plant before the heat of the summer. 'Lord Baltimore' is suitable for very large containers, but pots must be protected over winter. Although the hibiscus grows tall, the need for staking is rare. These plants will die back to ground level during the winter months. Hibiscus needs little care once established, attracts butterflies, and it has some of the largest flowers of any perennial! * Large flowers * Easy to grow * Vigorous grower |
