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

The petals have a slight twist to them and are slightly recurved at the tips. This clematis will rebloom again in late summer with smaller 6 flowers. An outstanding variety with a vigorous growth habit, this clematis is best grown in a protected area to prevent wind damage to the very large flowers.   ‘Fireworks’ was Awarded Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Merit.

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 ‘Fireworks’ is a very reliable performer once established; it takes a season or two to get going! * Reliable * Vibrant color * Vigorous

Hibiscus - Party Favor - DetailsHibiscus - Party Favor - Sale Price: $71.25
Hibiscus Party Favor (Rose Mellow), Hibiscus moscheutos 'Party Favor', forms a large clumping habit that makes this plant a “stand alone” in the landscape because of its extended bloom time! From midsummer until frost, the large, long lasting blooms will create a striking display.  ‘Party Favor’ has large rose-pink buds that open to glossy, medium pink flowers that have overlapping petals with red eye centers.  This hibiscus is a super long-blooming plant that produces large dinner plate-sized 8-10 inch wide pink blossoms! 'Party Favor' has highly dissected, green leaves on nicely branched red stems.  Moist soils are best, but this hardy hibiscus is very drought tolerant as well.  Perennial Hibiscus should be cut back to 4-6 from the ground in the spring. It grows well in any fertile, well-drained soil with ample moisture.  Do not allow to dry to the wilting point.  Be careful to not over-water until plants show signs of growth.  Be patient; hibiscus can be slow to emerge in spring.  For best performance, plant in full sun in moist soil, before the heat of the summer. This hibiscus is suitable for very large containers, but pots must be protected over winter.  'Party Favor' plants will die back to ground level during the winter months. Hibiscus needs little care once established, attracts butterflies, and it has the largest flowers of any perennial! * Large flowers * Easy to grow * Vigorous grower
