Pink Muhly

Pink Muhly

Pink Muhly Grass (Muhlenbergia capillaris) is a striking ornamental grass known for its airy clouds of vibrant pink flower plumes that appear in late summer through fall. Growing approximately 2-3 feet tall and wide, it forms a neat clump of fine-textured, blue-green foliage throughout the growing season. When in bloom, delicate pink flower heads rise above the foliage, creating a soft, almost cloud-like appearance that adds dramatic color and movement to the landscape. Pink Muhly Grass is an excellent choice for mass plantings, borders, foundation beds, rock gardens, slopes, or as an accent plant. It is especially impressive when planted in groups, where its pink fall blooms create a bold display. Heat and drought tolerant once established, Pink Muhly Grass is a low-maintenance option for adding texture and seasonal color to sunny landscapes.

Pink Muhly Grass prefers well-drained soil and performs especially well in sunny, drier areas of the landscape. Avoid consistently wet or poorly drained locations. Watering:Water consistently during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Once established, Pink Muhly Grass is drought tolerant and generally requires supplemental watering only during extended periods of hot, dry weather. Fertilizing:Little fertilizer is typically required. If needed, apply a light application of balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring. Avoid excessive fertilizer, which can encourage weak growth and reduce the plant's naturally compact habit. Pruning:Leave the foliage and dried flower heads standing through winter for added texture and seasonal interest. Cut the plant back to approximately 4-6 inches above the ground in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

NewGen Freedom®

NewGen Freedom®

NewGen Freedom® Boxwood (Buxus NewGen Freedom® 'SB 300') is an improved evergreen boxwood prized for its glossy green foliage, vigorous growth, and enhanced resistance to common boxwood problems. Developing a dense, rounded habit that is slightly taller than wide, it provides year-round structure and classic boxwood character for both formal and residential landscapes. Unlike many slower-growing boxwoods, NewGen Freedom grows approximately 3-6 inches per year, allowing it to establish and fill out relatively quickly. It was specifically selected for its good resistance to boxwood blight and excellent resistance to boxwood leafminer, making it an excellent alternative to many traditional boxwood varieties. NewGen Freedom is particularly well suited for foundation plantings, medium hedges, borders, formal gardens, mass plantings, or as an evergreen specimen. Its dense growth responds very well to pruning and can be maintained as a formal hedge or allowed to develop a more naturally rounded appearance. More About NewGen Freedom Boxwood Low Maintenance Fast Growing for a Boxwood Broadleaf Evergreen Year-Round Interest Good Boxwood Blight Resistance Excellent Boxwood Leafminer Resistance Foundation Planting, Hedge, Border, Mass Planting, Formal Garden, Specimen Dense, Rounded Habit Glossy Green Foliage Deer Resistant Pruning Tolerant Height: 4-5 FeetSpread: 4-5 FeetHardiness Zone: 5-8 Characteristics Sun Exposure: Full Sun to Shade Season of Interest: Year Round Soil Moisture: Average, Well Draining Attributes: Evergreen, Dense, Rounded, Pruning Tolerant Foliage Color: Glossy Green Care & Maintenance Tips Planting:Plant in full sun to shade in well-drained soil. NewGen Freedom is adaptable to a range of light conditions but benefits from protection from harsh winter sun and wind in exposed locations. Provide adequate spacing and air circulation to promote healthy foliage. Watering:Water consistently during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Once established, provide supplemental water during extended periods of hot, dry weather. Avoid consistently saturated or poorly drained soil. Fertilizing:Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring if needed. Avoid excessive fertilization. A light layer of mulch around the root zone can help maintain consistent soil moisture. Pruning:NewGen Freedom is more vigorous than many boxwoods and benefits from annual pruning. Prune in late winter to early spring to maintain a dense, compact form. Without regular pruning, older plants may begin to open in the center. Disease Prevention:NewGen Freedom has good resistance to boxwood blight and excellent resistance to boxwood leafminer, but it is not completely immune to boxwood blight. Maintain good air circulation and proper watering practices, and avoid planting in locations with a history of severe boxwood blight.

Walker Low

Walker Low

Walker’s Low Catmint (Nepeta × faassenii ‘Walker’s Low’) is a vigorous, long-blooming perennial prized for its abundant lavender-blue flowers, aromatic gray-green foliage, and graceful spreading habit. Growing approximately 24-30 inches tall and 30-36 inches wide, it forms a broad mound that provides excellent color, texture, and coverage throughout the growing season. Lavender-blue flower spikes appear in late spring to early summer and continue blooming for an extended period, attracting bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. The aromatic foliage remains attractive throughout the season and is generally avoided by deer and rabbits. Lightly trimming the plant after its initial flush of flowers encourages fresh growth and additional flowering. Walker’s Low is an excellent choice for perennial borders, foundation plantings, mass plantings, walkways, cottage gardens, slopes, rock gardens, or as a flowering groundcover. Its larger size and spreading habit make it especially useful for filling larger areas where smaller catmint varieties may not provide enough coverage.

Limelight Prime®

Limelight Prime®

Limelight Prime® Hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata ‘SMNHPPH’) is an exceptional deciduous flowering shrub prized for its enormous cone-shaped flower clusters, strong upright stems, and spectacular seasonal color changes. An improved selection of the popular Limelight® Hydrangea, Limelight Prime® offers a more compact growth habit, earlier flowering, and richer fall flower coloration, making it a beautiful addition to residential and commercial landscapes. Beginning in early to midsummer, Limelight Prime® produces an abundance of large, upright flower panicles that emerge in vibrant lime-green shades. As the season progresses, the flowers gradually transition to creamy white before developing increasingly rich pink, rose, and reddish tones as cooler autumn temperatures arrive. This remarkable color transformation provides months of continuous ornamental interest. Unlike many traditional panicle hydrangeas, Limelight Prime® develops exceptionally strong stems that help support its large flower clusters, even after summer rainfall. Its naturally dense, upright growth habit creates a polished appearance with less flopping, making it particularly desirable for organized foundation plantings, formal garden borders, and flowering hedges. Limelight Prime® is especially well suited for traditional landscapes, formal estate-style gardens, cottage gardens, and mixed flowering shrub borders. Its manageable size makes it an excellent choice for residential foundation plantings, while its abundant blooms create impressive displays when planted in groups. The flowers are also excellent for cutting, fresh arrangements, and dried floral decorations. More About Limelight Prime® Hydrangea Deciduous Flowering Shrub Improved Limelight® Hydrangea Selection Compact, Upright Growth Habit Exceptionally Strong Flower Stems Large Cone-Shaped Flower Clusters Vibrant Lime-Green Summer Flowers Flowers Transition to Creamy White Rich Pink-to-Red Fall Flower Color Earlier Flowering Than Original Limelight® Long Blooming Season Blooms on New Wood Excellent Cut Flower Beautiful Dried Flower Arrangements Cold Hardy Heat Tolerant with Adequate Moisture Low Maintenance Once Established Excellent Flowering Hedge Foundation Planting, Specimen, Mass Planting, Mixed Shrub Border Outstanding Summer and Fall Interest Height: 4–6 FeetSpread: 4–5 FeetHardiness Zone: 3–8 Characteristics Sun Exposure: Full Sun to Partial Shade Season of Interest: Summer, Fall Soil Moisture: Average to Moist, Well Draining Attributes: Long Blooming, Strong Stems, Compact, Upright, Cold Hardy, Cut Flowers, Fall Flower Color Foliage Color: Dark Green Flower Color: Lime Green to Creamy White, Maturing to Pink and Red Flower Fragrance: Not Significant Care & Maintenance Tips Planting: Plant in full sun to partial shade in fertile, well-drained soil. Limelight Prime® performs best with at least four to six hours of direct sunlight daily, although some afternoon shade can be beneficial during periods of intense summer heat. For flowering hedges or mass plantings, space plants approximately 4–5 feet apart, depending on the desired density and available growing space. Allow adequate room for mature growth and good air circulation. Watering: Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Hydrangeas prefer consistent soil moisture, particularly during hot summer weather and active flowering. Once established, Limelight Prime® is relatively adaptable but should receive supplemental watering during extended dry periods. Avoid allowing the root zone to dry out completely. Fertilizing: Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer formulated for flowering shrubs in early spring if needed. Incorporating compost or organic matter around the root zone can help improve soil structure and moisture retention. Avoid excessive nitrogen fertilization, which can encourage leafy growth at the expense of flower production. Pruning: Limelight Prime® blooms on new wood, meaning its flower buds develop on the current season's growth. Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove dead, damaged, or weak branches and shorten healthy stems as needed to maintain a strong, attractive framework. Avoid excessively severe pruning, which can encourage overly vigorous growth and reduce the plant's natural structure. Winter Care: Limelight Prime® is a cold-hardy deciduous shrub that naturally loses its foliage during winter. Its dried flower panicles may be left standing for seasonal interest or removed during spring pruning. Apply a light layer of organic mulch around the root zone to help moderate soil temperatures and conserve moisture, keeping mulch away from the main stems. Pest Prevention: Monitor periodically for aphids, spider mites, leaf spot, and other common hydrangea pests. Provide adequate spacing, good air circulation, and consistent watering to maintain healthy growth.

Growing approximately 22-27 inches tall and 36-40 inches wide, it forms a dense mound that becomes covered with flowers from midsummer into fall. Bright golden-yellow, daisy-like flowers surround dark brown centers, creating the classic Black-Eyed Susan appearance while attracting bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. Its narrow, hairy green foliage provides excellent resistance to Septoria leaf spot, a common problem that can cause significant spotting and decline on other Rudbeckia varieties.

Watering: Water consistently during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Once established, American Gold Rush is relatively drought tolerant but will perform and flower best with occasional supplemental watering during prolonged periods of hot, dry weather. Fertilizing: Very little fertilizer is required. If needed, apply a light application of balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring. Avoid excessive fertilization, which can encourage excessive foliage growth and weaker stems. Pruning: Deadheading spent flowers can encourage a tidier appearance and continued flowering, but it is not required. Leaving some seed heads standing in fall and winter provides food for birds and additional seasonal interest. Cut old growth back in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

Autumn Joy

Autumn Joy

Autumn Joy Sedum (Hylotelephium ‘Herbstfreude’, commonly sold as Sedum ‘Autumn Joy’) is a dependable, late-blooming perennial prized for its large flower clusters, succulent foliage, and exceptional tolerance of hot, dry conditions. Growing approximately 18-24 inches tall and wide, it forms a dense, upright clump of thick blue-green foliage that provides attractive texture throughout the growing season. Large, flat-topped flower clusters begin developing in summer and gradually open to soft pink before deepening to rosy pink, reddish-bronze, and copper tones as fall progresses. The late-season flowers provide an important source of nectar for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators when many other garden plants have finished blooming. Autumn Joy is an excellent choice for perennial borders, foundation plantings, pollinator gardens, mass plantings, rock gardens, cottage gardens, or as a colorful accent. Its dried flower heads can be left standing through winter to provide additional texture and seasonal interest. More About Autumn Joy Sedum ● Low Maintenance ● Moderate Growing ● Herbaceous Perennial ● Late Blooming ● Long-Lasting Flowers ● Drought Tolerant Once Established ● Heat Tolerant ● Perennial Border, Foundation Planting, Pollinator Garden, Mass Planting, Rock Garden, Cottage Garden, Accent ● Upright, Clumping Habit ● Succulent Foliage ● Attracts Bees & Butterflies ● Excellent Pollinator Plant ● Deer Resistant ● Rabbit Resistant ● Excellent Cut Flower ● Provides Winter Interest Height: 18-24 Inches Spread: 18-24 Inches Hardiness Zone: 3-9 Characteristics ● Sun Exposure: Full Sun to Part Sun ● Season of Interest: Summer, Fall, Winter ● Soil Moisture: Dry to Average, Well Draining ● Attributes: Upright, Clumping, Succulent, Late Blooming, Pollinator Friendly ● Foliage Color: Blue-Green ● Flower Color: Pink, Deepening to Rosy Red and Bronze Care & Maintenance Tips Planting: Plant in full sun for the strongest stems, densest growth, and heaviest flowering. Autumn Joy can tolerate some light shade, but excessive shade may result in weaker stems and reduced flowering. It performs best in well-drained soil and is an excellent choice for hot, dry locations. Watering: Water consistently during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Once established, Autumn Joy is highly drought tolerant and generally requires very little supplemental watering. Avoid consistently wet or poorly drained soil, particularly during winter. Fertilizing: Very little fertilizer is required. Autumn Joy performs well in relatively lean soils. Excessive fertilizer can encourage weak, floppy growth and reduce the plant’s naturally sturdy habit. Pruning: Leave the dried flower heads standing through winter for additional texture and seasonal interest. Cut the old stems back to the ground in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Spent flowers can also be removed earlier if a tidier appearance is preferred.

Big Daddy

Big Daddy

Big Daddy Hosta is a magnificent shade-loving perennial prized for its large, rounded blue-green leaves, deeply textured foliage, and impressive mounding growth habit. Its thick, heavily puckered leaves create a bold architectural appearance, bringing exceptional texture and structure to shaded landscape beds, woodland gardens, and foundation plantings. Emerging in spring with attractive powdery blue foliage, Big Daddy develops broad, cupped leaves with pronounced veining and a distinctive corrugated texture. The substantial foliage forms a dense, rounded mound that creates a dramatic focal point beneath mature trees or alongside other shade-loving perennials. Its blue coloring is generally most pronounced in cooler conditions and locations protected from strong afternoon sunlight. During midsummer, pale lavender to nearly white bell-shaped flowers rise above the foliage on tall stems, attracting hummingbirds and other pollinators. Although its flowers provide additional seasonal interest, Big Daddy is primarily grown for its outstanding foliage. Big Daddy is particularly well suited for woodland gardens, traditional landscapes, estate-style gardens, and shaded borders. Its bold leaves pair beautifully with finely textured ferns, colorful heuchera, and other shade-loving plants, creating a layered, sophisticated landscape design. More About Big Daddy Hosta Herbaceous Perennial Large, Mounding Growth Habit Broad Blue-Green Leaves Heavily Corrugated, Puckered Foliage Thick, Substantial Leaf Texture Attractive Cupped Leaves Pale Lavender to Nearly White Summer Flowers Excellent Shade Garden Specimen Hummingbird Friendly Pollinator Friendly Low Maintenance Excellent for Mass Plantings Woodland Garden, Shade Border, Foundation Planting, Accent Outstanding Foliage Texture Excellent Spring Through Fall Interest Height: 24–30 Inches (Foliage)Spread: 36–48 InchesHardiness Zone: 3–9 Characteristics Sun Exposure: Partial Shade to Full Shade Season of Interest: Spring, Summer, Fall Soil Moisture: Average to Moist, Well Draining Attributes: Large Foliage, Mounding, Shade Tolerant, Textural Interest, Low Maintenance Foliage Color: Blue-Green Flower Color: Pale Lavender to Nearly White Care & Maintenance Tips Planting: Plant in partial to full shade in fertile, organically rich, well-drained soil. Big Daddy performs best with morning sunlight or filtered shade and protection from intense afternoon sun. Excessive direct sunlight can cause leaf scorching and reduce its attractive blue coloration. Watering: Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Once established, maintain consistently moist soil, particularly during extended periods of hot, dry weather. Avoid allowing the soil to become excessively dry, as this can cause leaf browning and reduced growth. Fertilizing: Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring as new growth emerges. Incorporating compost or organic matter into the surrounding soil can help improve fertility and moisture retention. Pruning: Remove damaged or yellowing leaves throughout the growing season to maintain an attractive appearance. Spent flower stalks may be removed after blooming. Cut back dead foliage in late fall or early spring before new growth begins. Winter Care: Big Daddy Hosta is a hardy perennial that naturally dies back to the ground each winter. Apply a light layer of mulch around the root zone to help moderate soil temperatures and retain moisture, avoiding excessive mulch directly over the crown. Pest Prevention: Hostas are attractive to deer, rabbits, slugs, and snails. Monitor plants regularly and use appropriate protection where browsing animals or slug damage are common.
