Phlox - Giant Hardy - Mixed Colors
Height: 24-36". The Giant Hardy Phlox Mix, 'Phlox paniculata', have colors that sing in perfect harmony, so you can plant them together in a bright chorus of summer- long bloom, or disperse them among other border perennials. Plant Phlox liberally toward the back of the perennial border, spacing them 18" apart in humus-rich, well-drained soil. Majestic, fragrant favorites for the summer border! These choice hybrids are among the finest Garden n Phlox available today. Divide every 2-3 years. They bloom prolifically all summer - starting earlier than Grandmother's garden Phlox - with strong colors that won't fade. The large vibrant flower clusters are lovely in vases and fragrant, too! The deep green lance-shaped leaves climb the strong stems and create a dense, compact clump that is attractive even when not in bloom. ... more info
Geranium - Southcombe Double They do best in sun, but will tolerate some degree of shade. The Geranium Southcombe Double, 'Geranium oxonianum', displays fully double, pure pink blooms that sit atop bright green stems. Southcombe Double blooms almost non-stop throughout the summer, into fall. They are perfect in the perennial border and work well as a ground cover too. Geraniums are grown in almost any soil as long as it is not wet. For the most part, cranesbill are long-lived and do not require a lot of care. This plant would look wonderful in a pot on a sun-drenched porch and is also deer resistant. There are only a few double-geraniums in cultivation and don't look like a Geranium at first glance. |
