Plant Picks

The following plants represent a few of the Beds & Borders Picks as a result of our trialing process.


Acalypha w.‘Ceylon’
This new tropical addition is great anywhere you want to add exotic flare. Wavy mahogany leaves have bronze highlights and bright salmon-pink scalloped edges. Great for containers, 14-26".


Centaurea candissima
Grey almost white, the color is similar to gymnocarpa but its texture and form are completely different. Very thick felt-like leaves with lacerated edges. It stands completely upright to about 12".


Ipomea batatas ‘Dwarf Marguarita’ (Sweet Potato Vine)
This dwarf variety has the same color, shape & texture as Marguartia with a more restrained growth habit. Great for combination planters & it won't take over the pot.


Furcraea foetida
After using this in the garden for the last three years we are finally able to source large enough quantities to offer it in our catalog. Upright, thick sword shaped, variegated green & cream colored leaves. 10-12".


Euphorbia ‘Diamond Frost’
This new limited release Euphorbia is very delicate and airy but it has great flower power. Bright, clean white flowers throughout the summer in the garden.


Mecardonia ‘Gold Flake’ (8" HB)
Opposite green leaves produce bright yellow flowers at each leaf axil. Very vigorous, perfect to use as ground cover, in baskets, containers or along the garden edge. Will ship in May, blooms mid-summer through fall. This genus always looks great and blooms into the fall.


Zinnia Profusion Apricot
Deep to pale peach. Resistant to leaf spots and mildew like the Z. linearis but of broader leaf. Semi-upright growing to 15-18", flowers are single. No need to deadhead.
