Japanese Spurge - Green Sheen The Japanese Spurge 'Green Sheen', Pachysandra terminalis 'Green Sheen', has lustrous, shiny green leaves; the sheen is so impressive you think it can't be real! It is an evergreen ground cover, and the plant has a tidy habit which makes it a landscape winner. It grows in deep shade and is ideal for using under shallow rooted trees. Maturing at a height of 12 inches, it spreads slowly to moderately fast by underground rhizomes. 'Green Sheen' prefers well drained, organically rich loam and shade. It will tolerate some sun in northern zones, but needs shade in southern zones. 'Green Sheen' tolerates heat and humidity better than other Pachysandras. It features tiny spikes of white flowers rising above the foliage in mid spring. This Pachysandra will transform otherwise bare and ugly ground areas into attractive year-round cover! This spurge is also very effective as a border plant along paths or driveway edgings and can be used as a lawn substitute in shaded non-traffic areas. 'Green Sheen' makes an excellent ground cover in small shady areas! * Heat and humidity tolerant * Ground cover * Shiny leaves

| Daylily - Exotic Candy - Sale Price: $54.95 Hemerocallis Exotic Candy, Hemerocallis 'Exotic Candy', is a fragrant new daylily that will burst with color during the summer, and then reliably follows up with another surge of reblooms later in the season! Displaying a light pink flower that opens to a prominent dark rose eye and a bright green throat, ‘Exotic Candy’ shows excellent vigor and superlative garden performance. It has superb branching, a heavy bud count, and an energetic growth spurt that promotes rebloom; provides an impressive bud count of 25 to 30 blooms per scape, so it makes a glorious show in midsummer! 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. Divide every 3-5 years, or when the number of flower buds and the size of bloom begin to decline. Use ‘Exotic Candy’ daylily for color in shrub borders and in perennial beds. Once established, the daylily can be an excellent groundcover on slopes because it has roots that hold soil against erosion; attracts butterflies. ‘Exotic Candy’ also makes a beautiful floral arrangement! * Prominent “eye” * Vigorous * Superb branching |
| Hosta - Celestial - Sale Price: $42.75 Hosta Celestial, Hosta 'Celestial', is a large plant that has deeply corrugated, rounded leaves that measure 12-15 long! 'Celestial' has dark green leaves with a greenish yellow color swept across the margins, and then brightens to a creamy white in the summer. In midsummer, pale lavender flowers are produced on 33” to 36” scapes. This new variety is considered by some hosta experts to be an improvement over ‘Northern Halo' and other white edged sieboldiana types. This cream-edged, low care perennial is ideal for shady positions. It is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as specimen or edging plant. 'Celestial' needs high-filtered or dappled sunlight 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! 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. This hosta offers attractive corrugated green leaves with a wide cream border! * Low maintenance * Tall scapes * Large cream-edged leaves |
