Phlox - Snowflake
Phlox Snowflake, Phlox subulata 'Snowflake', produces aromatic, bright, and showy long-lasting flowers. Often called Creeping Phlox, it is a very versatile, low-growing perennial with striking and fragrant trumpet-shaped flower clusters that bloom profusely in late spring. Snowflake delivers a spectacular display of color when blooming; grows well in rocky or sloped areas. The pure white flowers of this creeping phlox can be used to give a classic elegant look when surrounded by greenery or for contrast among colors. Garden phlox is one of the most recognizable and widely grown perennials and is the backbone of the summer perennial border; a great perennial for open sunny locations. This Native American perennial attracts butterflies and hummingbirds and works well in container or patio pots, but is often used as a ground cover, an edging plant or for planting in cracks and walls. Fertilize every 4 months and plant in a sunny spot with well-drained soil and prune after flowering for a healthier plant. Snowflake is an outstanding plant to use with your spring flowering bulbs such as tulips and daffodils! * Long Bloom Period * Aromatic * Container Plant

Hyssop - Raspberry Summer - DetailsHyssop - Raspberry Summer - Sale Price: $42.75
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 - Chicago Orchid - DetailsDaylily - Chicago Orchid - Sale Price: $49.95
The Daylily 'Chicago Orchid', Hemerocallis 'Chicago Orchid', is a favorite summer blooming perennial with large clumps of long grass-like leaves with showy clusters of orchid lily-like flowers on tall stems. A midseason bloomer, this 'Chicago Orchid' plant produces several flower stalks with up to a dozen buds.  The buds open in series, but a flower lasts only a day, giving the plant its common name, Daylily! Daylilies grow vigorously, help suppress weeds, and are generally free from pests and disease.  They thrive in full sun or light shade and tolerate many types of soil.  In areas that receive less than 6 hours of sun during the day, your daylilies will probably produce fewer and smaller blooms, and the foliage may not be as robust. Divide every 3-5 years, or when the number of flower buds and the size of bloom begin to decline.   Planted together in large numbers, they quickly crowd out weeds and make a carefree and colorful ground cover.   Because it blooms all summer, has gorgeous color, and an attractive, clumping foliage, ‘Chicago Orchid’ is a pleasure to have in any garden! * Showy clusters of flowers * Clumping habit * Favorite

Hosta - Seducer - DetailsHosta - Seducer - Sale Price: $42.75
The Hosta Seducer, Hosta 'Seducer', is a very large sized hosta with broad dark green leaves.  ‘Seducer' has dark green leaves that are trimmed in slightly ruffled, yellow margins.  There is a trace of a white line that develops between the two colors as the season progresses; summer heat is needed for the white line to develop. Late summer through fall, the clump is topped by near white flowers that rise on tall scapes.  Because ‘Seducer’ has large leaves its coloration is very distinct. Hostas grow best 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.  It is best to keep areas around hostas clear of excess leaf debris to reduce the presence of slugs and snails.  Plant this low care plant 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.  ‘Seducer' is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as specimen or edging plant. ‘Seducer' has an amazing assortment of colors in each leaf that intensifies in bright light; fairly sun tolerant but should be given dappled shade. * Heart shaped leaves * Easy to grow * Large plant

Clematis viticella Venosa Violcea means violet veins, and when you look closely at the flowers on this exceptional variety, you can see how it got its name. What a gorgeous, timeless beauty! Clematis 'Venosa Violacea' needs a supporting structure to grow properly. This plant performs best when the tops are in full sunlight and the roots are shaded, but will thrive and bloom in shade. To keep plant roots cool and shady, apply mulch or plant a shallow rooted groundcover.
