Patriotic Flowers
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.
Mountain Frost Red Garnet Dianthus
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.
Snow Lady Shasta Daisy
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.
Little Spire Russian Sage
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. Any of these plants are 15% off this week for only $6.83, but we recommend all three for $20.49. 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!
