Grass - Maiden - Sale Price: $34.95 The Grass 'Maiden', Miscanthus sinensis 'Gracillimus', is a tall, graceful, clumping ornamental grass. The slender, weeping leaves are silvery-green and turn golden bronze in fall; a silver stripe runs up the middle of the sword-like green leaves. The flowers are white fan-shaped plumes in fall that extend above the foliage. The hardiness, the fine foliage and the spectacular fall colors have made 'Gracillimus' a favorite and very popular for years! Plant in spring or early summer when the soil is warm as the roots will grow only in warm soil. Planting too early in the spring may cause the roots to rot. Cut back the previous year’s growth before growth starts to appear in early spring.   'Gracillimus' has an arching shape and looks fabulous in the landscape as a specimen, screen or a nice mass of textured foliage; also looks great near a pond! For a carefree, year round interest grass, you cannot do better than Maiden grass!

Daylily - Chicago Apache - Sale Price: $49.95 The Chicago Apache Daylily, Hemerocallis 'Chicago Apache', is a deep, rich velvet red, with a tiny yellow-green heart. The petal edges crimp nicely. Chicago Apache is one of our longest bloomers. It was selected for its abundance of blossoms, vibrant colors, and hardiness in a variety of climates and soils.

Flower stems can be removed after blooming to encourage additional blooms. Vegetation can be cleaned up and discarded in late fall or early spring. Can be divided most any time of year and division is usually needed every 3-4 years for best performance.

Hosta - Maui Butttercups - Sale Price: $39.95 Hosta Maui Buttercups, Hosta 'Maui Buttercups', is one of the best yellow hostas on the market! The bright, rounded leaves are deeply cupped and corrugated. They have a thick, leathery substance and demonstrate good slug resistance. 'Maui Buttercups' is a nice medium sized hosta that brightens the shade garden, and one of the very best yellow Hostas.  It has flared, medium violet flowers that appear on 18 scapes in midsummer. This is a low care perennial and is ideal for shady positions and is one of the most popular for landscapes.  It is best to keep areas around hostas clear of excess leaf debris to reduce the presence of slugs and snails. It grows well 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 'Maui Buttercups' 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. One of the finest yellow-leafed hostas, ‘Maui Buttercups’ is always ready to brighten small garden spaces! * Mounded habit * Yellow-leafed * Slug resistance
