Red Lion Amaryllis

The Amaryllis 'Red Lion', 'Hippeastrum', produces large dark red blooms. Amaryllis are great for cut flowers and they also can be grown indoors. This plant is resistant to deer. Of all flowering bulbs, amaryllis are the easiest to bring to bloom. This can be accomplished indoors or out, and over an extended period of time. The planting period extends from October to April and the flowering period lasts for 6 to 7 weeks. Amaryllis can be grown outdoors in frost free areas. In cold regions, pull up the bulbs before winter, and store them until spring.

Royal Fern

The Royal Fern, `Osmunda regalis,' is a tall, deciduous fern that grows naturally on moist bluffs and ledges along streams, and is sometimes found growing in the water. The broad fronds feature large, separated leaflets that give this fern an almost pea-family appearance. Its spores are located in brown, tassel-like, fertile clusters on the tips of the fronds. This gives the plant the additional common name of flowering fern. This plant will also grow nicely in shaded borders, woodland gardens and native or wild plant gardens.

Amethyst Myst Coral Bells

The Heuchera Amethyst Myst, `Heuchera x Amethys Myst,' is also known as the Coral Bell or Alumroot. This plant has unique, deep purple foliage that is dusted with silver, unlike the other burgundies of its family. During the spring, its light pink flowers will appear, remaining into the summer. However, these plants are more known for their lovely foliage than their blooms. They look especially great in borders, woodland edges, rock gardens or in mass to form a ground cover. This plant is perfect for a beginning gardener.
