Virginalis Water Lily
This very reliable water lily is one of the most prolific varieties available, and its smaller size makes it a perfect choice for anything from a container garden to a small or medium-sized pond. Many growers feel this is the finest white hardy lily due to its freedom of bloom and always-dependable performance. The white flowers are 4-6 inches wide, the leaves are 8-9 inches wide, and the overall plant spread is 3-4 feet wide. This plant grows best in full to partial sun. We recommend growing ‘Virginalis’ in a 7.5 quart container (available from naturehills.com). Also available from naturehills.com is Aquatic Planting Media and Lilytabs Water Lily Fertilizer.

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; attracts butterflies.  ‘Cherry Candy’ also makes a beautiful floral arrangement.   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.   Daylilies grow best when planted in full sun to partial shade.  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.

Butterfly Plant - Cinderella - DetailsButterfly Plant - Cinderella - Sale Price: $39.95
Butterfly Plant Cinderella, Asclepias incarnata 'Cinderella', is a virtually hassle-free perennial, offering three months of vanilla-scented, rose-pink flowers in large, compact clusters from midsummer to early fall. Deadheading the flowers will stimulate another bloom cycle about a month after the first one. The flowers, which are heavily laden with nectar and pollen, are particularly attractive to hummingbirds, butterflies, bees, and other beneficial insects. Asclepias incarnata is easily grown in medium to wet soils in full sun. It is surprisingly tolerant of average well-drained soils in cultivation even though the species is native to swamps and wet meadows. Plants have deep taproots and are best left undisturbed once established. Foliage is slow to emerge in spring. Once established, Swamp Milkweed requires little care. Though it is perfectly cold-hardy in the north, mulching plants in winter will help prevent frost-heaving. In spring, trim back last year's growth and await the beautiful new foliage that will appear a bit later than other perennials. Following the fabulous flowers, typical milkweed seed pods develop which rupture to reveal seeds with long, silvery-white, silky hairs. * These are great to use in dried flower arrangements! * Deer resistant * Long bloom period
