The Yarrow ‘Terra Cotta’, Achillea 'Terra Cotta', is an upright salmon pink with flowers that age to rusty terracotta orange. The flowers bloom from June through September. With silvery foliage, it is beautiful when planted in front of dark foliaged perennials or mixed with blue flowers.

Remove faded flowers to encourage more growth and divide every 3-4 years. Use this plant in borders, containers, mass plantings, or in rock gardens. For an attraction to butterflies, deer and rabbit resistant, one can’t go wrong with this plant! This is an extremely popular plant, order yours now! * Drought Tolerant

Hosta - Vulcan - DetailsHosta - Vulcan - Sale Price: $42.75
The Hosta Vulcan, Hosta 'Vulcan', is an outstanding and classy hosta that creates a “wow” reaction! ‘Vulcan’ has broad, heart-shaped leaves with white centers.  The contrasting dark green margins have a lighter yellow coloring. With its eye popping color and vigorous growth habit, Vulcan is a standout in any shaded area! Having a mounding habit, this hosta also produces lovely light lavender flowers on white scapes in mid to late summer. 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.  'Vulcan' is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as specimen or edging plant. 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.  ‘Vulcan’ exhibits excellent growth rate, outstanding garden performance, and gives you a long season of appealing color in a landscape! * Heart shaped leaves * Clumping habit * Vigorous grower

Daylily - Exotic Candy - DetailsDaylily - Exotic Candy - Sale Price: $54.95
Hemerocallis Exotic Candy, Hemerocallis 'Exotic Candy', is a fragrant new daylily that will burst with color during the summer, and then reliably follows up with another surge of reblooms later in the season! Displaying a light pink flower that opens to a prominent dark rose eye and a bright green throat, ‘Exotic Candy’ shows excellent vigor and superlative garden performance. It has superb branching, a heavy bud count, and an energetic growth spurt that promotes rebloom; provides an impressive bud count of 25 to 30 blooms per scape, so it makes a glorious show in midsummer! Individual flowers last only one day, but since each plant produces many buds, the total blooming time of a well-established clump may last more than a month. Divide every 3-5 years, or when the number of flower buds and the size of bloom begin to decline. Use ‘Exotic Candy’ 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. ‘Exotic Candy’ also makes a beautiful floral arrangement! * Prominent “eye” * Vigorous * Superb branching

Clematis Empress, Clematis 'Empress™', is a charming clematis that will impress with a profusion of radiant pink blooms that have a frilly pompon top! Clematis 'Empress' produces large double flowers that have pink petals with darker pink center bars.  The inner petals sprout spiky pink hair and the plant blooms from May through June and into fall in most climates. 'Empress™ is a spectacular compact, free-flowering plant that displays well in containers or small gardens.

Clematis is easy to grow in a rich, porous, alkaline soil with plenty of room for the roots to spread. Best performance is when the tops are in full sunlight and the roots are shaded, so apply generous mulch or a shallow-rooted ground cover near the base of the vine. Groom this plant after first flowering by cutting back the top one-third to one-half of some stems. Clematis 'Empress™' is a very reliable performer once established; it takes a season or two to get going! * Container clematis * Large double flowers * Long blooming
