Hosta - Patriot - Sale Price: $42.75 The Hosta ‘Patriot’, Hosta fortunei, has heart-shaped, glossy medium green leaves with a large white margin, making this variety very striking! The Hosta flowers bloom from July to August, and it has a plant height of 22” and a spread of 36-48”.   ‘Patriot’ provides bright color in shade with its wonderful foliage. Hosta ‘Patriot’ was the American Hosta Growers’ Hosta of the Year in 1997.  If you have ever seen it, you will know why; it literally brings light to shade! 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 is at home in well 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 ‘Patriot’ 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. With its outstanding coloration, ‘Patriot’ is one of the most striking and exciting hostas to have in your shade garden! * Heart shaped leaves * Bright coloration * Excellent specimen

Columbine - Blue Barlow - Sale Price: $49.95 The Columbine Blue Barlow, 'Aquilegia vulgaris 'Blue Barlow', produces unusual double, dahlia-like blooms that are blue-violet and lack the typical columbine spurs that nod gracefully above compact foliage in late spring. This plant grows to 2 feet tall and wide. Deadheading is recommended to prolong blooming. The wonderful plants perform best when planted in partially shaded areas.  Blue Barlow blooms in late spring to early summer and it can be used as a cut flower. Columbine is an easy to grow perennial  and produces large, showy blooms of single and bicolor patterns on airy plants with blue-green foliage.    Being very hardy, the columbine will likely survive the first light frosts, and then go dormant for the winter. Blue Barlow will do well in average soils and tolerates dry soil conditions; the soil should be well drained. This plant does not require mulching or protection in the winter. Hummingbirds love the showy blooms that are loaded with nectar! * Hardy * Double blooms * Tolerates dry soils

This grass grows on almost any well-drained soil, but prefers the sandy loams; also will grow on low fertility soils; responds well to fertilization. 'Weeping Love' is a grass that is perfect for erosion control and can be used in mass plantings, as a specimen, or in borders.

Clematis - Rhapsody - Sale Price: $42.75 Clematis Rhapsody, Clematis 'Rhapsody', is an outstanding cultivar with broad, pointed, dark indigo-blue flowers. As the 5 flowers mature the color becomes even more intense. Very free flowering and one of our favorites! Compact grower; great for containers, balconies and small gardens.  Groom this clematis after flowering by cutting back the top one-third to one-half of some stems. This encourages new growth for possible summer bloom. Clematis 'Rhapsody' needs a supporting structure to grow properly.  Clematis is easy to grow in a rich, porous, alkaline soil with plenty of room for the roots to spread. Best performance is when the tops are in full sunlight and the roots are shaded, so apply generous mulch or a shallow-rooted ground cover near the base of the vine. Very reliable performer once established and takes a season or two to get going! Plant 'Rhapsody' in a container in a place where everyone can enjoy its dark indigo-blue flowers all season long! * Reliable * Intense color * Compact grower
