Marliacea Carnea Water Lily
The faint blush pink of the flowers look almost white on first glance.  This outstanding ‘Marliacea Carnea’ water lily is suited to any size pond, particularly medium to large ponds.  It even tends to bloom in partially shaded ponds! This free-flowering variety was hybridized by Latour-Marliac Nurseries in 1880, and it is still considered one of their finest creations.   It needs plenty of space to grow, so makes an excellent choice for a lake or large, deep, wildlife pond.  Its dark green leaves create a shady underwater habitat for native fish and amphibians.  The faint pink flowers are 4-5 inches wide, the leaves are 7-8 inches wide, and the overall plant spread is 4-5 feet.  Blooming from June to September, the showy, vanilla-scented, semi-double, pale pink flowers with golden-yellow centers are a colorful addition to any pond! We recommend growing this water lily in a 7.5 quart or larger container (available from naturehills.com).  Also available from naturehills.com is Aquatic Planting Media and Lilytabs Water Lily Fertilizer. Cannot be shipped to: CA, MT, OR, WA or WY. * Vigorous grower * Part shade * Fragrant

'Marmalade' grows best in a rich, well-drained soil; water and fertilize regularly throughout the growing season.  Use this coral bell as a ground cover, in rock gardens, as a border plant or as an edging along paths and walkways. This plant looks good when paired with  Artemisia, ornamental grasses, or low ground covers.   Cold and drought tolerant and withstanding heat and humidity, nothing seems to phase this plant.  This Heuchera adds a bit of flavor to any perennial garden with its texture, vigor, and vibrant color.   Attracting butterflies and hummingbirds, this coral bell will surely become a “must have” plant as it provides a dramatic contrast in any shaded plant area. 'Marmalade' should not be left out of your shade perennial garden! * Heat and humidity tolerant * Ground cover * Varying shades of color

Sedum - Lemon Drop - DetailsSedum - Lemon Drop - Sale Price: $49.95
Sedum Lemon Drop, Sedum 'Lemon Drop', is a neat little plant for rock gardens or as a ground cover.

The sprays of the bright yellow flowers are held just above the foliage on this easy-to-grow plant. Lemon Drop hugs the ground and may reach just 6 inches in height, but has a 12 inch spread. It is best to apply a thin layer of compost each spring, followed by a 2-inch layer of mulch to retain moisture and control weeds. Lemon Drop needs extra watering during the summer if rainfall is less than 1 inch per week. Choose an area where the plant will receive sunlight for at least 6 hours a day. After the first killing frost, the stems should be cut back to an inch or two above soil line. * Frosted green leaves* Dwarf plant* Hardy

Phlox - Emerald Pink - DetailsPhlox - Emerald Pink - Sale Price: $39.95
Phlox Emerald Pink, Phlox subulata 'Emerald Pink', ushers in spring with a profusion of fabulous color. This low growing creeping phlox is no taller than 6. Phlox 'Emerald Pink' has a compact habit that is perfect for borders and rock gardens. Mass plantings of 'Emerald Pink' will create a beautiful sea of pink in your garden landscape! Gritty, slightly alkaline soils are preferred and good drainage is essential for 'Emerald Pink'. It's a good idea to shear this plant back and clean up any dead foliage in early summer, just after its finished blooming. This will produce denser foliage and will encourage it to rebloom. The needle-like semi-evergreen foliage forms a tough, durable ground cover. During the winter, in cold areas, the plants may die back and recover again in the spring. * Attracts Butterflies * Blooms Late Spring * Deer Resistant

It is a spreading, prostrate shrub with long, stiff branches, non-showy flowers, and seldom produces fruit. It is an excellent ground cover and rock garden accent. Prune 'Japgarden' in June after the new growth has time to establish. With most evergreens it is easy to remember Prune in June. Junipers are important evergreens for landscape use due to their tolerance of unfavorable soil conditions, their hardiness and great variation in size, habit, color and growth rate.
