Hosta - Journey's End
Hosta Journey's End, Hosta 'Journey's End' (PP#16,895), is an impressive sport of Hosta 'Choo Choo Train' that grows to a whopping 6' wide clump! The large, yellow-gold leaves have ruffled, dark green edges with multiple shades of green.  The oval shape of the slightly textured leaves give this plant added interest.  Its exquisite leaf form and good substance make 'Journey's End' a garden must! Pale lavender, nearly white, tubular flowers bloom in June and July. 'Journey's End' 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 'Journey's End' in an area that receives the right amount of light.  The leaves need some morning sun to bring the rich color out; too much sun will burn the leaves.  This is a beautiful upright Hosta plant with great colors. 'Journey's End' needs lots of space to grow and spread since the ruffled leaves are quite large, measuring 14 inches long by 10 inches wide! * Large leaves * Clumping habit * Low maintenance

The Jamaica Sunrise TM) Daylily PPAF, 'Hemerocallis 'TP 06-12', is an early-blooming daylily with orange-red petals and a yellow throat on a more compact plant.

Daylilies will grow in almost any soil and handle drought to wet soil conditions.  In areas that receive less than 6 hours of sun during the day, your daylilies will probably produce fewer and smaller blooms, and the foliage may not be as robust. Use ‘Jamaica Sunrise’ for stand alone plantings, edging, in borders or in mixed containers and tubs.  Planted together in large numbers, they quickly crowd out weeds and make a carefree and colorful ground cover. These plants can survive many harsh conditions that other plants cannot including: polluted city environments, slopes, poor and dry soils, near pavement that is salted in winter, and under Black Walnut trees (not affected by juglone). * Elegant flowers * Compact foliage * Long bloom season
