Veronica - Foxy Lady
Veronica Foxy Lady, Veronica 'Foxy Lady' PPAF, is the first ever bi-color veronica! This lovely lady features bright flower spikes that are packed with tiny, lavender-purple and white candy striped flowers. Veronica 'Foxy Lady' is a sport of 'Red Fox' and has the same dwarf habit and long bloom time as its parent!  Plant Foxy Lady in a sunny spot in the front of the border where you can get a close up view of the unique bi-color flowers. 'Foxy Lady' needs a full sun area with well-drained soil. Deadhead the flowers after the first bloom to prolong its bloom time for up to 6 weeks or so. It is tolerant of partial shade but flowering will be more profuse in full sunlight. Veronica can be used as a ground cover, in mass plantings or along borders. Try ‘Foxy Lady' with Hemerocallis ‘Stella de Oro’ or Veronica ‘White Icicles’ for color contrast. Veronica is great for the first time gardener plus it is deer resistant. Foxy Lady will attract butterflies and hummingbirds! * Bi-Color flowers * Attracts butterflies and hummingbirds * Attractive groundcover

Coneflower -  Firebird - DetailsConeflower - Firebird - Sale Price: $39.95
Echinacea Firebird (Coneflower), Echinacea 'Firebird', displays stunning red-orange petals that fall below the beautiful dark cones.   These beautiful flocks of colored flowers grow on sturdy stems. Firebird produces long lasting flowers that attract butterflies and hummingbirds; makes gorgeous flower arrangements too! 'Firebird' provides a season-long colorful display of daisy-like flowers and will bring a brilliant display of brilliant red orange colors to a sunny location. Divide clumps when they become overcrowded (about every 4 years). 'Firebird' usually reblooms without deadheading, but if spent flowers are removed, this procedure will encourage continued beautiful blooms and improves general appearance. Coneflowers are used as accent plants or in mixed borders, open woodlands, and mass plantings.  This plant is deer resistant. 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. The flaming red-orange colors of 'Firebird' just “pops” wherever panted! * Fragrant * Long lasting blooms * Food for wildlife

Coral Bells - Paris - DetailsCoral Bells - Paris - Sale Price: $56.95
Coral Bells Paris, Heuchera 'Paris', is as silvery colored as any of our minty selections.  It has striking, white-veiled sea green foliage with ruffled edges.  These leaves give rise to continuous columns of large, deep rose-colored flowers.   ‘Paris’ is a 14 mounding plant that combines the striking white-frosted green leaves with stalks of cheery rose-red flowers and repeat blooms until frost! ‘Paris’  looks especially good around the edge of borders, near variegated plants, woodland edges, rock gardens, perennial borders, or in mass to form an attractive ground cover. Coral Bells is susceptible to rot, so good drainage is essential while roots establish themselves. Cold and drought tolerant and withstanding heat and humidity, nothing seems to phase this plant.  'Paris' needs about one inch of water per week; divide clumps in fall. Heuchera adds a bit of flavor to any perennial garden with its texture, vigor, and vibrant color.  Attracting butterflies and hummingbirds, 'Paris' will surely become a “must have” as it contrasts dramatically with other colors in your garden! * Ground cover * Sea green foliage * Long lasting bloom

Lavender - Hidcote - DetailsLavender - Hidcote - Sale Price: $32.95
The Lavender 'Hidcote', Lavandula angustifolia 'Hidcote', is a dwarf variety that is a compact grower and reaches 18-24 inches tall.  It produces fragrant spikes of dark purple flowers in summer.  These flowers produce the purest lavender scent! Being drought tolerant, it is ideal as a short perennial shrub border or as an herb in a kitchen garden.  Lavender was selected in 1999 as the International Herb Association Plant of the Year! This plant is great for hedges and edging because 'Hidcote' has a more erect and compact habit.  It boasts 2½-inch, linear, downy leaves on strong stems.   The leaves open white, then turn a pale gray-blue-green color.  This Lavender grows in a well-drained, neutral to alkaline soil in an open, sunny spot.  For better drainage, add sand in the hole when first planting this lavender. Trim back in spring to encourage bushier growth; also deadhead after flowering. The sweetest scent of all lavender, it is also the most cold hardy, and it should be pruned back the first year. If you want dried flowers,  pick when showing color but before fully open; tie in bunches and hang in a cool, airy place. One of the most famous of all herbs, 'Hidcote' is used most often in sachets in the home  and for perfumes! * Dwarf * Cold hardy * Pale gray, blue-green foliage

Hibiscus - Blue River II - DetailsHibiscus - Blue River II - Sale Price: $42.75
The Hibiscus 'Blue River II', Hibiscus moscheutos, is the first true, original, large, pure white flowering Hibiscus and should not be missed! It has a plant height of 4-5' and wonderful 10 dinner plate-sized, 5-petaled, hollyhock-like flowers blooms.  Individual flowers are very short-lived (usually one day), but one or more flowers usually open each day, and this continues in succession from midsummer to early fall! The light green leaves make a wonderful contrast.  'Blue River II' is easily grown in average, medium to wet soils in full sun. It does best in moist, organically rich soils, but does surprisingly well in average garden soils; do not allowed to dry out.  Plant 'Blue River II' in locations protected from wind to minimize risk of wind burn. If you deadhead individual flowers this will maintain a neat and colorful plant appearance. New growth shoots are slow to emerge in spring, however, once new growth begins, it proceeds quite rapidly; provide regular fertilization during this growing season. Being a vigorous grower and sturdy plant, 'Blue River II' produces some of the largest flowers produced by any perennial! * Large white flowers * Easy to grow * Vigorous grower
