Ligularia - Brit Marie - Sale Price: $42.75 The Ligularia Brit Marie Crawford, Ligularia dentate ‘Brit Marie’, is a wonderful yellow-orange, daisy-like flower with huge glossy maroon foliage that remains dark for most of the season.  (This plant was first discovered by Britt-Marie Crawford in Fife, Scotland.) ‘Brit Marie’ is a clump-forming herbaceous perennial that is grown not only for its showy purple-black leaves, but also for its summer display of bold daisy-like orange-yellow flowers! The foliage can be rounding, kidney-shaped, or triangular with a wavy margin.  The flowers appear on tall spikes and bloom from July to August.   ‘Brit Marie’ has a plant height of 3-4’ and a spread of 36-48”. Ligularia should be planted in full shade in a well-drained area.  It must have moist soil and should never be allowed to dry out.  Use Ligularia in group or mass plantings, woodland gardens, or along streams, ponds, pools or bog gardens. ‘Brit Marie’ makes an extremely bold statement in the garden, and its best ornamental feature is its leaves.  They generally retain good color throughout the growing season! * Daisy-like flowers * Outstanding foliage * Clump forming habit

Grass - Red Switch - Sale Price: $64.25 Grass - Red Switch, Panicum virgatum 'Shenandoah', has a more upright form and is the smallest of the Panicum. It is a clump-forming, warm season grass which typically grows in an upright, vertical clump to 3' tall (to 5' when in flower). Its foliage is green, tinged with red during the growing season, then turning bright red in the fall. Nothing comes close to the fall color displayed by this grass, and it retains this color throughout the winter! It will attract birds and is suitable for cut and dried flower arrangements. Red Switch Grass prefers full sun, moist fertile soil, but adapts to a wide range of soil conditions. Red Switch is a warm season grass that likes to grow in warm weather. Before it will show signs of life in the spring, the soil must warm up, and be warm for possibly as long as two weeks. This switch grass can be used very effectively when planted with fall blooming asters. Cut back clumps to the ground in late winter to early spring.

Hosta - Great Expectations - Sale Price: $56.95 The Hosta Great Expectations, 'Hosta sieboldiana', has puckered heart shaped leaves with creamy yellow centers and irregular blue-green edges.  This hosta is prized for its unique, large, textured leaves that have a puckered appearance. The white flowers bloom from July to August, and have a plant height of 24” and a spread of 36”.  Hostas provide bright color in shade with wonderful foliage. Hosta ‘Great Expectations’ needs to be planted in a full shade area in any moist, well-drained location.  This low care perennial is ideal for shady positions, tubs and patio pots, and one of the most popular landscape uses. A great choice for any beginner gardener! It grows 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. Plant ‘Great Expectations’ in an area that receives the right amount of light.  The leaves need some morning sun to bring the rich golden color out; too much sun will burn the leaves. ‘Great Expectations’ is most at home in shady, woodland settings or can be planted in groups of 3 to 5 in an area that needs lots of color! ‘Great Expectations’ will look terrific in a shade perennial garden when combined with hardy ferns, astilbe, bleeding hearts, and heucheras! * Heart shaped leaves * Hardy * Colorful foliage
