Snowstorm Bacopa

Bacopa Snowstorm, `Sutera hybrids,' is a Proven Selections plant and an instant hit with gardeners. These plants are incredibly versatile and vigorous. The growth habit makes it unbeatable for filling in bare spots in the garden and small pots. Snowstorm plants have large, white flowers and are extra vigorous. This plant has a bushier and more vigorous upright habit than many other varieties of Sutera. The soil should be kept moist and well drained, as flowers will drop easily if the plant is not provided enough moisture. In zones nine through eleven, they can also be used as a perennial.

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.

Red Pendula Begonia

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.
