Fanal’ adds some color to the shaded landscape with red foliage in the spring that transistions to green for the summer months and that’s just the foliage. The deep red flowers top the lacy green foliage in the hot summer months. A great selection for the shaded garden especially useful in woodland areas or where deer browsing is a concern since deer and rabbits tend to leave Astilbe’s alone. Thrives even in the darkest shade.

You’d love this plant just for its foliage as ferny, shiny mounds of foliage form a beautiful tussock of green in a partial shade area. In June, flower spikes rise above the foliage and reveal airy, pure white blooms that contrast sharply with its foliage through late July, lighting up any corner of the landscape.
‘Purple Dome’ is a ‘must-have’ plant for the late summer and fall garden. It is simply one of the best blooming fall Asters and it’s one of the densest with its naturally dwarf form keeping it from sprawling out of control and looking messy like many other Asters can. ‘Purple Dome’ is the picture of neatness with tight branching swathed in small, deep green, strap-like foliage. Once early September hits, this neat form is coated with an exquisite veneer of 2″ diameter, deep purple, yellow centered daisies that will demand your attention. The show continues well into October making it one of those fall bloomers that will leave you with a warm feeling for your garden right on through the cold winter.

Like its relative, Asclepias incarnata, this plant is essential to attracting Monarch butterflies to the landscape but, unlike incarnata, it likes a much drier spot and, since its profile is lower, a spot closer to the front of the garden. This drought tolerant American Beauties gem also flowers differently with umbels of small orange flowers that emerge in mid-July and continue into August. Like its relative, Butterfly Weed is a caterpillar food source for Monarchs and a nectar source for adult Monarchs and other butterflies and their mere presence in the landscape guarantees landscape color other than flowers. Even the birds love this plant for its seed fluff that provides nesting material!
Velvety silver cushions look fabulous in rock gardens, borders or as a mass planting. Although requiring full sun, ‘Silvermound’ will have a tendency to “melt out” if overexposed to heat and humidity. Cut back to rejuvenate. Bloom insignificant.
This beautiful looking native groundcover has an incredibly refined look for a plant that revels in poor, dry, infertile soils. ‘Massachusetts’ is a nearly prostrate grower with small, lustrous, deep green evergreen foliage that hugs the branches, providing a spreading carpet of lushness in the garden. This selection loves full sun or partial shade and is extremely easy to grow as long as it is planted in a location with very well-drained soil. Along with its beauty, it provides a myriad of wildlife food and shelter with small native bees zeroing in its small, showy, white tinged pink flowers while birds and other small critters love its ample supply of plump red berries that cover the plant in late summer and fall. Even bigger critters love the berries. One of its common names, Bearberry, comes from the fact that even bears love to snack on its fruit!! This plant is exclusively offered to American Beauties program.
Gray-green leaves are captivating when filled with droplets of a morning dew. A good edging plant or groundcover, it requires moist soil. Small yellow-green flowers produced in late spring.

Prefers average to dry soils. Blooms July-September.
