Hosta - Dream Weaver
Hosta Dream Weaver, Hosta 'Dream Weaver', is a choice sport of the very popular Hosta 'Great Expectations'.  The large, distinctive leaves have thick substance and very wide 3 blue-green margins that make a dramatic contrast against the creamy white leaf centers. 'Dream Weaver' is lightly cupped, lightly corrugated and has thick substance.  A gorgeous hosta, and the creamy white flowers are just the icing on the cake with this one! It forms a generous mound that really stands out from the rest. This low care perennial is ideal for shady positions.  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. High-filtered or dappled sunlight is necessary for clean, healthy growth.  Morning sun is tolerable and will help to intensify the leaf colors, but hot afternoon sun is usually deadly to hostas! 'Dream Weaver' is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as specimen or edging plant. 'Dream Weaver' will become a favorite since it makes a grand statement wherever it is planted! * Low maintenance * Versatile * Large leaves

Hemerocallis Ruby Spider, Hemerocallis 'Ruby Spider', is one daylily you just have to have in your garden!  It will be a show stopper with immense  9 flowers that are pure, saturated deep red with a golden yellow throat and mid ribs. Being a truly extraordinary form of daylily, its large petals are long and spoon-shaped.  Use 'Ruby Spider' as a marvelous specimen plant, or it can make a grand statement when planted in masses. 'Ruby Spider’ is a dormant tetraploid which means its foliage dies back in winter; this is an important consideration for northern gardeners since 'Ruby Spider' is a great choice for the far north! 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.  Use this daylily for color in shrub borders and in perennial beds; attracts butterflies. Once established, the daylily can be an excellent groundcover on slopes because it has roots that hold soil against erosion.  Divide every 3-5 years, or when the number of flower buds and the size of bloom begin to decline.  'Ruby Spider' makes a beautiful floral arrangement, and is a terrific plant that any gardener can claim as “marvelous”! * Survives in far north * Stunning color * Hardy
