Salvia - Marcus
The Salvia ‘Marcus’, Salvia nemorosa, is a new dwarf version of the Salvia ‘May Night’. With its compact, dense habit of growing, it is easy to accommodate in any perennial garden. Spikes of intense violet-blue flowers bloom on top gray-green foliage and flower from June to October. ‘Marcus’ has a plant height of 12” and a spread of 12-18”. Salvia ‘Marcus’ should be planted in full sun in a moist well-drained area. To increase bloom time, it should be cut back after the first bloom. ‘Marcus’ is a magnet for butterflies, bees and hummingbirds and is deer-resistant. It is hardy for container gardening, as a border plant and provides excellent cut flowers. Blooms look wonderful next to Sedum ‘Matrona’, Achillea 'Coronation Gold' and Saliva ‘Snow Hill’. (PPAF). ... additional information
Hosta - Pineapple Poll The Hosta 'Pineapple Poll' exhibits intriguingly twisted and undulating leaves with an upright habit. The dark green leaves are heavily rippled and have good slug resistance. Leaves are 10" long x 4" wide. The lavender flowers bloom from July to August, however, Hosta’s are not known only for their flowers. With a plant height of 19" and a spread of 40-50”, this Hosta provides bright color in shade with wonderful foliage. Hosta ‘Pineapple Poll' needs to be planted in a full shade area in any moist, well-drained area. This low care perennial is ideal for shady positions, tubs and patio pots, and one of the most popular for landscape uses. A show stopper in containers. |
