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.

The Red Globe peach features one of the finest flavors even developed. This very large, round fruit has yellow flesh that is blushed with red, and touts an excellent flavor. These are some of the most highly desirable commercial peaches, and they have exceptional quality. The large fruits ripen in June, and the trees are vigorous and highly productive. The fruits, with their highly blushed red atop a golden background, are some of the most attractive peaches of their season. The fruits have good quality and are rather firm.

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.
