Adore

Adore™ Hardy Hibiscus (Hibiscus moscheutos ‘RutHib3’) is a dramatic herbaceous perennial featuring enormous pink flowers, deep red centers, and attractive burgundy-green foliage. Its tropical-looking blooms can reach impressive sizes and create a bold focal point during the heat of summer. Large pink flowers appear from mid to late summer above a dense, well-branched mound of foliage. The leaves develop rich burgundy tones with a distinctive soft texture, providing ornamental value even when the plant is not in bloom. The combination of dark foliage and oversized pink flowers makes Adore™ especially striking in mixed borders and mass plantings. Unlike Rose of Sharon, Adore™ Hardy Hibiscus is an herbaceous perennial. The plant dies back to the ground after frost and returns from its roots each spring. It thrives in sunny locations with consistent moisture and is an excellent choice for perennial beds, pollinator gardens, rain gardens, pond edges, mass plantings, and dramatic specimen plantings. More About Adore™ Hardy Hibiscus Herbaceous Perennial Large Pink Flowers Deep Red Flower Centers Burgundy-Green Foliage Long Summer Bloom Period Compact, Bushy Habit Heat Tolerant Moist Soil Tolerant Pollinator Friendly Attracts Butterflies & Hummingbirds Excellent for Borders, Mass Plantings, Rain Gardens & Specimen Plantings Tropical Appearance with Cold Hardiness Height: 3-4 FeetSpread: 3-4 FeetHardiness Zone: 5-9 Characteristics Sun Exposure: Full Sun Season of Interest: Summer into Early Fall Soil Moisture: Average to Moist Attributes: Flowering, Compact, Heat Tolerant, Moisture Tolerant, Pollinator Friendly Foliage Color: Green to Burgundy Flower Color: Pink with Deep Red Center Care & Maintenance Tips Planting:Plant in full sun for the strongest growth, best foliage color, and maximum flower production. Adore™ Hardy Hibiscus prefers rich soil with consistent moisture and performs particularly well in areas that remain moderately moist throughout the growing season. Watering:Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during periods of summer heat and active flowering. Hardy Hibiscus naturally performs well in moist conditions and generally requires more consistent water than drought-tolerant perennials. Fertilizing:Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer in spring as new growth begins. Fertile soil, adequate moisture, and full sun will help support vigorous growth and its exceptionally large flowers. Pruning:Allow the plant to die back naturally after frost. Old stems can be left standing through winter and cut back close to ground level in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Spring Emergence:Hardy Hibiscus is naturally late to emerge in spring. Don't assume the plant has died if neighboring perennials are already growing. New shoots often appear once soil temperatures have warmed.

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.

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.

Blue Jean Baby Russian Sage performs best with at least six hours of direct sunlight daily and thrives in average to relatively lean soils. Avoid poorly drained or consistently wet locations, especially during winter, as excess moisture can damage the root system. Watering: Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Once established, Blue Jean Baby is highly drought tolerant and generally requires supplemental watering only during extended periods of extreme heat and dryness. Fertilizing: Blue Jean Baby Russian Sage requires very little fertilizer and performs well in average to lean soils. Excessive fertilization can encourage weak, overly vigorous growth and reduce its naturally upright habit. Pruning: Leave stems standing through winter for added structure and seasonal interest. In early spring, once new growth begins, cut back old stems to approximately 6–12 inches above the ground or just above healthy emerging buds. Avoid heavy pruning in fall, which can expose the crown to winter damage. Winter Care: Excellent winter drainage is essential. Avoid heavy, wet mulch directly against the crown, and allow old stems to remain standing through winter to provide additional protection.

Growing approximately 2-3 feet tall, it produces stiff, upright blue-gray leaves that provide strong color and texture throughout the growing season. Wheat-like flower heads rise above the foliage in summer, beginning blue-green and gradually maturing to tan. Blue Lyme Grass is particularly well suited for sandy soils, coastal landscapes, slopes, and other challenging areas where many ornamental grasses struggle. It is highly tolerant of wind, salt, drought, and poor soils once established. Blue Lyme Grass spreads vigorously by underground rhizomes and can form large colonies, making it useful for erosion control and naturalized areas but less suitable for small or tightly controlled planting beds.

Blue Lyme Grass performs especially well in sandy, gravelly, or relatively poor soils and is highly tolerant of coastal conditions. Because it spreads aggressively by underground rhizomes, plant it where it has room to naturalize or use a physical root barrier to help control its spread. Watering:Water regularly during the first growing season while the root system becomes established. Once established, Blue Lyme Grass is drought tolerant and generally requires little supplemental watering. Fertilizing:Very little fertilizer is required. Blue Lyme Grass performs well in lean soils, and excessive fertilization can encourage overly vigorous growth and spreading. Pruning:Cut old foliage back to approximately 3-6 inches above the ground in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove unwanted shoots or rhizomes as needed to prevent the plant from spreading beyond its intended area. State Restrictions State Restrictions: Blue Lyme Grass (Leymus arenarius) is prohibited or restricted in Wisconsin. Please check your local regulations before purchasing.

Braeburn

A semi-dwarf variety, the Braeburn is fairly easy to grow and produces heavily at a young age. This apple is firm to the touch with red-orange vertical stripes against a yellow-green body.  Best eaten slightly cooled to bring out the sharp refreshing flavor that has a good balance of tartness and sweetness.  Good cooking apple as it holds it shape, also producing a lot of liquid making it ideal for tarts. Stores well when kept chilled. Pollinates with Fugi. Interesting Notes: GROWN SAFE™  For your safety and peace of mind, we give you our word that for at least the past twelve months the only pest controls used on our fruit and berries are those listed by the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMR) for organic fruit and berry production. Braeburn Apple Growing and Maintenance Tips Fertilize in spring with an all-purpose fertilizer before new growth begins. Will cross pollinate with the varieties we offer. To prune an apple tree, start by removing dead, diseased, and broken branches. Then, thin out the canopy by removing downward-growing branches, crossing or rubbing branches, and vigorous upright shoots called "water sprouts". Always make cuts to the branch collar and avoid removing more than one-third of the tree’s canopy in a single pruning session to prevent shocking the tree.  Height: 30 FeetSpread: 15 FeetSpacing: 25 FeetHardiness Zone: 5-8 Malus domestica 'Braeburn' Characteristics Exposure: Full Sun Soil Moisture: Average Water Attributes: Edible Production: Considered self pollinating, but benefits from having a second peach tree to cross pollinate Season of Interest (Flowering): Spring

Burkwoodii

Burkwood Viburnum (Viburnum × burkwoodii) is a beautiful flowering shrub prized for its exceptionally fragrant spring flowers, attractive glossy green foliage, and naturally rounded growth habit. Its abundant clusters of delicate white flowers emerge from pink flower buds, creating a lovely two-toned display that brings elegance and fragrance to traditional landscapes, foundation plantings, and mixed shrub borders. In mid to late spring, Burkwood Viburnum produces an abundance of rounded flower clusters with a rich, sweet fragrance reminiscent of spice and vanilla. The fragrant blooms attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators, making this shrub a wonderful addition to gardens designed for both beauty and wildlife. Throughout the growing season, Burkwood maintains attractive dark green foliage that provides a lush backdrop for surrounding flowering plants. Depending on the climate, it may retain some or much of its foliage through winter, making it semi-evergreen in colder regions and more evergreen in milder locations. In autumn, the leaves may develop attractive shades of burgundy, reddish-purple, and bronze. Burkwood Viburnum is particularly well suited for formal estate-style landscapes, cottage gardens, traditional foundation plantings, and fragrant garden borders. Its naturally dense, rounded habit makes it an excellent choice for informal hedges, specimen plantings, and mixed flowering shrub beds. Plant it near patios, walkways, or outdoor seating areas where its delightful spring fragrance can be fully appreciated.

Burkwood Viburnum performs best with at least four to six hours of sunlight daily, although some afternoon shade can be beneficial in hotter locations. Choose a planting site with adequate room for its mature size and good air circulation. For maximum enjoyment of its fragrant flowers, consider planting near patios, walkways, entrances, or outdoor seating areas. Watering: Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Once established, Burkwood Viburnum tolerates occasional dry periods but performs best with consistent moisture during extended periods of hot, dry weather. Fertilizing: Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring if needed. Incorporating compost or organic matter around the root zone can improve soil quality and moisture retention. Avoid excessive fertilization, which may encourage foliage growth at the expense of flowering. Pruning: Burkwood Viburnum naturally develops an attractive rounded habit and generally requires minimal pruning. If shaping is necessary, prune immediately after flowering. Because flower buds form on old wood, pruning in late summer, fall, or early spring can remove the following season's blooms. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches as needed to maintain healthy growth and an attractive appearance. Winter Care: Burkwood Viburnum is cold hardy but may lose some or all of its foliage during colder winters. Apply a layer of mulch around the root zone to help moderate soil temperatures and retain moisture. Protect newly planted shrubs from excessive winter wind exposure where practical. Disease Prevention: Provide adequate spacing and good air circulation to reduce the likelihood of fungal diseases. Avoid prolonged waterlogging and monitor plants for common viburnum pests, including viburnum leaf beetle.

Avoid poorly drained or consistently wet locations, particularly during winter, as excess moisture can damage the crown and root system. Watering: Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Once established, CrazyBlue is highly drought tolerant and generally requires supplemental watering only during extended periods of extreme heat and dryness. Fertilizing: CrazyBlue Russian Sage generally requires very little fertilizer and performs well in average to lean soils. Excessive fertilization can encourage soft, weak growth and reduce its naturally upright habit. Pruning: Leave stems standing through winter for added structure and seasonal interest. In early spring, once new growth begins, cut back old stems to approximately 6–12 inches above the ground or just above healthy emerging buds. Avoid heavy pruning in fall, which can expose the crown to winter damage. Winter Care: Excellent winter drainage is essential. Avoid heavy, wet mulch directly against the crown, and allow old stems to remain standing through winter to provide additional protection.
