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

Trumpet Creeper - DetailsTrumpet Creeper - Sale Price: $49.95
The Trumpet Creeper, Campsis radicans 'flamenco', is a rapid growing, clinging vine that produces bright red orange trumpet shaped flowers that can get 3 inches long. Blooming in the summer months, it attracts hummingbirds and butterflies. Also known as the Trumpet Vine, it is a tough vine for hot and dry sites. The invasive nature of this plant makes it hard to get rid of, but it is very hardy. It will become less invasive as long as seed pods are removed before they ripen and the plant cut back each spring before new growth develops. The abundant sprays of trumpet-shaped red orange flowers cover this deciduous vine for an extra long bloom season. Trumpet Creepers are often grown with multiple trunks. This vine is a woody climber that grows up to 30 feet tall with the main stem getting about seven inches wide. This plant flowers best in a full sun location. The rapid growth makes it an excellent plant for covering fences or arbors; clinging vines attach themselves to structures and climbs by aerial rootlets. Trumpet Creeper can take the form of a small shrub if it does not have structure to climb. * Fast growing* Vining habit* Bright red orange flowers  

Coneflower - Meringue - DetailsConeflower - Meringue - Sale Price: $49.95
Coneflower Meringue, Echinacea purpurea 'Meringue' PPAF, produces creamy yellow pom-poms with apple green centers, set atop white ray petals, creating this delicious meringue coneflower. As the flower ages, Echinacea 'Meringue' PPAF, opens as flat as a daisy, and as it matures the center cone grows upward and develops short, puffy petals that give it that gumdrop look. A delight for songbirds, this distinctive knee high variety was introduced by AB Cultivars and blooms from mid to late summer. 'Meringue' has a huge number of blooms which is marvelous, but it's the compact, easily controlled habit that is so impressive! The  sturdy stems carry the blossoms from midsummer to fall.  For best results, plant in full sun in a well drained area. Echinacea is known for its large flower heads that turn to seed in the fall. It is a great choice for cut flowers, and it adds a wilderness look to your garden. ‘Meringue' usually reblooms without deadheading, but if spent flowers are removed, this procedure will encourage continued beautiful blooms and improves general appearance. 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. Meringue' will give you weeks of delicious color and makes a dependable and lovely plant for any sunny garden spot!    * Fragrant * Hardy * Small and compact
