Clematis - Kilian Donahue
Clematis Kilian Donahue, Clematis 'Kilian Donahue', is a wonderful new cultivar with a multicolor look! This early bloomer opens with ruby red centers that fade out to brilliant fuchsia bars, with orchid colored petal edges.  As the 5 flowers age, they fade to lavender with pink bars. An excellent repeat bloomer throughout the summer months, this clematis has flowers that mature through a series of rich bicolor combinations ending with lavender and rich pink. It almost appears as two clematis planted together, since the new and older flowers bloom together at the same time! Clematis 'Kilian Donahue' needs a supporting structure to grow properly but will also grow over large shrubs, over walls, cover stumps, and make perfect cover ups for unsightly service areas. 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 'Kilian Donahue' is a very reliable performer once established; it takes a season or two to get going! You will enjoy this excellent repeat bloomer throughout the summer months! * Reliable * Multicolor flowers * Early bloomer

It can grow to twenty feet, provides great texture, and adds a wonderful appearance to any landscape. Plant in sun to partial shade.

Hosta - Sagae - DetailsHosta - Sagae - Sale Price: $56.95
Hosta Sagae, Hosta 'Sagae', displays frosty green leaves with creamy yellow margins that form very large impressive clumps.  Hosta 'Sagae' is one of our favorites! With very heavy substance and good slug resistance, 'Sagae' provides pale lavender flowers on 34 scapes in mid-summer. Winner of numerous awards including: the 1982 Trophy Award, 1987 Benedict Award, and 2000 American Hosta Growers Society Hosta of the Year. 'Sagae' is considered to be the most dramatic variegated hosta ever introduced.  Plants mature into breath-taking specimens reaching 6' in width! 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.  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.  'Sagae' is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as specimen or edging plant. Because it makes such a bold statement, 'Sagae' sells out quickly, so if you want this plant, order it now! * Variegated leaves * Slug resistance * Upright habit
