Obedient Plant - Miss Manners - Sale Price: $56.95 The Physostegia ‘Miss Manners’, Physostegia virginiana, also known as Obedient Plant, has bright white spiked flowers that are 18” tall and a plant spread of 18-24”.  ‘Miss Manners’ blooms from June to September and the waxy, dark green foliage make this plant a little different from other white blooming perennials. It is a noteworthy perennial that is respectful of space in the small garden because of its compact, non-suckering habit.  ‘Miss Manners’ is well mannered and is not as aggressive as most other Physostegia! This plant needs a full sun area but will tolerate some afternoon shade, in well-drained soil.  Use ‘Miss Manners’ in borders, mixed plantings, massed plantings (especially to separate other colors), in large containers or as cut flowers. Try planting it with darker colors such Hemerocallis ‘Little Business’, Platycodon ‘Balloon Flower’ or Veronica ‘Royal Candles’. You will find ‘Miss Manners’ a delight in the garden as it provides a summer-long display of pure white tubular flowers and clean, deep green narrow foliage! * Non-suckering habit * White blooms * Waxy foliage

Hosta - 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

'Blue Dune Lyme' is vigorous and will often be a bit pushy in a regular garden situation, but does well around shrubs and trees.  Perfect for controlling soil erosion problems and for covering hillsides. The flowers appear from June to August.  Cut down 'Blue Dune Lyme' in late fall or early spring to allow all new, clean foliage to show to the best advantage! 'Blue Dune Lyme' is an attractive plant that will quickly fill in a large area; spreads by rhizomes and makes an excellent ground cover. This low maintenance grass needs only occasional watering once it is established.  Cut back the upright spiky flowers for a new flush of attractive growth, which looks good well into winter. Plant 'Blue Dune Lyme' grass wherever its blue foliage can be enjoyed! * Bright blue foliage * Vigorous * Ground cover

Grass - Burgundy Bunny - Sale Price: $51.35 Pennisetum Burgundy Bunny, Pennisetum alopecuroides 'Burgundy Bunny', is a warm season grass, so where temperatures get colder than -10 degrees F, this plant is considered an annual. Warm-season grasses need warm soil to begin their growth, so Burgundy Bunny won't start growing until mid to late spring or even early summer. This miniature fountain grass will turn shades of brown as the weather turns colder. Once this happens, and you live in an area where this grass will survive the winter, trim back to a few inches tall. You can leave the dried grasses and seed heads in your garden for winter interest; covered with snow, this ornamental grass can be quite striking. If this grass needs dividing, do so anytime in the spring through mid-summer. This miniature cutie exhibits an impressive display in containers or the front of the border. Burgundy Bunny forms a petite habit with narrow green leaves with a hint of red, and produces small tufted cream flower plumes in late summer. You will be delighted with its blazing red color in the fall! Red Fall Color!
