Whether you lean red, blue, or somewhere in between we all love this country!
|
|
|
|
|
Time to celebrate with this patriotic special!💥 We have an awesome trio of red,
|
|
|
|
|
white, and blue plants this week. We have chosen plants that combine height,
|
|
|
|
|
unique foliage, and long blooms for a summer of color.

At the front of the border
|
|
|
|
|
we have the long blooming Mountain Frost Red Garnet dianthus which boasts a saturated
|
|
|
|
|
red flower with a strong heavenly fragrance and spiky grey foliage.

|
|
|
|
|
For the middle of
|
|
|
|
|
the border we have Snow Lady Shasta daisy, a dwarf white daisy with a tidy habit that
|
|
|
|
|
will rebloom if deadheaded.

|
|
|
|
|
As a backdrop to these there is Little Spire Russian Sage
|
|
|
|
|
a 2’ tall blue flowering Russian sage. Airy spikes of blue flowers float over ferny grey
|
|
|
|
|
foliage and last through fall. This compact Russian Sage is perfect for the smaller
|
|
|
|
|
garden border. <del>Any of these plants are 15% off this week for only $6.83,
|
|
|
|
|
but we recommend all three for $20.49.</del> They make a ready to plant tiered border
|
|
|
|
|
arrangement, especially if you lost some plants in the inferno of last weekend.
|
|
|
|
|
Have a great Independence Day, and remember the hot dry weather means we are
|
|
|
|
|
at extreme fire danger so be safe out there! We will extend our plant of the week
|
|
|
|
|
through Thursday of next week as a special treat!
