Lily of the Valley
The Lily of the Valley, 'Convallaria majalis', is a fragrant white Lily-of-the-Valley that is unusual because its dainty bell-shaped flowers are actually double!  Grows to 9 tall. Each arching  stem is weighed down by the profuse blooms it carries.  The fragrant bell shaped flowers are followed by glossy red berries.  Plant in a garden with good air circulation to prevent fungal spots on the petals. Once it becomes established, Lily of the Valley plant is long-lived and spreads slowly through its rhizomes.  This perennial thrives in moist, humus-rich, fertile soil, in sun or full shade.  The more sun there is however, the more important it is for the soil to be moist.   A slow but aggressive spreader, Lily of the Valley adds a bit of elegance and charm to shade-prone areas of any landscape! * Fragrant * Double blooms * Slow grower

Clematis Terniflora, Clematis 'Terniflora', produces masses of small 1 creamy white flowers that completely cover this plant. Its sweet scent is an added bonus and is sure to get the attention of anyone who walks by! ‘Terniflora’ is very impressive with its deep green leathery leaves and profuse blooming.  Flowers give way to attractive, plume-like seed heads.

Because of its extremely rampant growth habit this clematis may need hard pruning in fall or early spring. Best performance is when the tops are in full sunlight and the roots are shaded, but will thrive and bloom in shade.

Hosta - Regal Splendor - DetailsHosta - Regal Splendor - Sale Price: $56.95
Hosta Regal Splendor, Hosta 'Regal Splendor', is a stunning sport of Hosta 'Krossa Regal'.  It demonstrates the same upright vase shaped habit as 'Krossa Regal', but the frosty blue leaves are edged with a creamy yellow margin.  This very elegant looking host provides tall stems of lavender flowers that appear in August. 'Regal Splendor' received the 2003 American Hosta Growers Group Hosta of the Year.  Once it has matured, 'Regal Splendor' is definitely one of the most beautiful hostas in the garden! 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.  'Regal Splendor' is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as specimen or edging plant. Once the 'Regal Splendor' has matured into its very elegant famous vase-shaped form, it may become your favorite hosta!  * Upright habit * Vase shaped form * Elegant
