The Lily 'Stargazer', 'Lilium Oriental Hybrid', a fall planted bulb, is the most popular of all oriental lilies because of it's fragrance, red and white flowers, and long lasting vase life. Oriental hybrid lilies, known as the most flamboyant personalities within the world of lilies, are characterized by their immense flowers, at least 6" across. The elegant flowers, with their gracefully recurved petals, have an intense fragrance and rich colors. Oriental Lilies are very long-lived in the garden and will multiply over the years, if left undisturbed. They attract butterflies and hummingbirds.
The Artemisia Silver Brocade, `Artemisia stelleriana,' is a compact, silver-white perennial plant with a height of fifteen inches and a spread of over two feet. This wooly plant produces yellow flowers in early summer that are not very showy. This plant prefers sandy soil but does need a well drained location with full sunlight and a small amount of afternoon shade. This plant can be paired with Echinacea Purple Coneflower or Rudbeckia Black Eyed Susan to add interest to any garden or accent fresh or dried flower arrangements.
The Begonia Pendula Red, `Begonia Pendula Red,' displays multitudes of beautiful red flowers. This spring planted tuber has much smaller flowers than upright begonias, and also requires more water. Sometimes called basket begonias, Pendula makes up in numbers what the flowers lack in size. Light fertilization applied weekly will assist in maintaining healthy, vibrant blooms. Daily watering should be applied in warm weather, as they should never be allowed to dry out.
