Hyssop - Raspberry Summer
Hyssop - Raspberry Summer 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. Its foliage smells distinctly like black licorice when crushed, thus its common name, Anise Hyssop. If you'd like to restrict the height of this tall perennial, pinch back its blue-green foliage in spring before the flower buds are formed. It prefers well-drained soil and needs full sun to light shade and dry to medium soil. Peak bloom occurs in midsummer and provides a real summer treat for hummingbirds and butterflies. 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 - 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 |
| Yarrow - Moonshine - Sale Price: $64.25 The Yarrow ‘Moonshine’, Achillea 'Moonshine'’, is an upright canary-yellow flower that blooms from June through September. With evergreen foliage in mild winter regions, this non-spreading Achillea is a definite winner. ‘Moonshine’ Yarrow is unlike the common Yarrow, being shorter in height and less invasive. The flower heads are 4” wide, with a spread of 18-24” and a height of 24”. ‘Moonshine’ Yarrow is a great addition to a sunny perennial border, planted in pots or combined with ornamental grasses. ‘Moonshine’ can tolerate poor soil conditions, but does best in lean, dry to medium wet, well-drained soil. (Avoid heavy clays and moist, rich, fertile soils.) Yarrow should be planted in full sun and is tolerant to hot humid summers. Use this plant in borders, as cut and dried flowers, and in containers. Remove faded flowers to encourage more growth and divide every 3-4 years. For an attraction to butterflies, deer and rabbit resistant, one can’t go wrong with this plant. * Yellow Flowers * Evergreen in warm climates |

'Silver Dragon' is easily grown in average, medium, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Divide clumps every 2 to 3 years in early spring; prune in winter. The erect flower spikes with pale lavender flowers appear, somewhat hidden, among the leaves in late summer. The flowers often give way to greenish berries in fall. This ‘Silver Dragon’ Liriope spreads by underground rhizomes and makes a wonderful groundcover; can be used for erosion control; also plant under tough areas such as shallow rooted trees or along ponds or streams. The bright variegated leaves make a super edging plant that highlights partially shaded beds; brings a sense of light into darker plantings or woodland gardens too. ‘Silver Dragon’ can be paired with large-leafed, shade loving varieties like Heuchera, Elephant Ear and Hydrangea to set off the narrow, grass-like foliage! * Evergreen * Erect flower spikes * Berries in fall |

| Hosta - Lakeside Shore Master - Sale Price: $42.75 The Hosta Lakeside Shore Master, Hosta 'Lakeside Shore Master', is a vigorous growing and eye catching member of the Lakeside series. ‘Lakeside Shore Master’ Hosta does command attention in the garden with its broadly ovate blue-green leaves that develop rich ivory to yellow centers. At maturity, the leaves display some puckering; in midsummer it produces lavender flowers. An impressive and easy to maintain Hosta, ‘Lakeside Shore Master’ is a good grower, makes a very handsome mound, and brightens up a shady area! 'Lakeside Shore Master' 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. Plant 'Lakeside Shore Master' 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. If you need a plant that is easy to maintain and provides a bright spot in your shaded garden, 'Lakeside Shore Master' will certainly be the one! * Puckered leaves * Low maintenance * Great specimen |
