Look at our bloomers!

 It may be the early days of spring, but that doesn't mean some flowers aren't already making a show.  There are three blooming plants that are turning their faces to the sun right now:  Helleborus, Oriental Paper Bush, and Second Chance Combo Jasmine.

     Helleborus ‘Pink Frost’  (AKA Lenten Rose):  These beauties are one of our favorite shade perennials.  Evergreen, it blooms with beautiful pink flowers in February/March and holds blooms a long time.  Deer resistant and drought tolerant.  1 gallon $ 20.00.

    Oriental Paper Bush, Edgeworthia chrysantha .  It has Umbrella-like leaves, but it is the unusual yellow flowers aging to creamy white, that are the show. They have a delightful  fragrance and open until late winter from buds that have been obvious from late autumn. 10 gallon $ 89.99


    Second Chance Combo Jessamine, Gelsimium sempervirens/ rankinii. This evergreen vine will delight you with bright yellow flowers in the spring and fall.  A good climber if given a fence or trellis to wrap around. Full sun to part shade. 20’ Long. 3 gallon 27.99, 7 gallon at $ 65.99. 

     Stop by the garden center and stroll...relax for a while...see what's blooming or about to bloom, and let one of our experienced gardeners help you plan your dream garden!
