Plant List For 2015....

I won the HCG $50 cert. in the Sept. raffle. I just placed an order tonight and used it. Shipping dates weren't shown, so I emailed HCG. Pretty sure it will be in April when they start shipping to zone 6. I'm really looking forward to growing Glowing Embers!

1 Agastache rupestris Glowing Embers
1 Agastache aurantiaca Apricot Sprite
1 Agastache cana
1 Agastache cana Rosita
1 Agastache Red Happiness
1 Agastache Blue Blazes
1 Agastache rupestris
1 Agastache Ava

Have you had success in the past with the A. cana? We have a very difficult time with t because of our humidity. Being from the SouthWest, they are adapted to dry-dry-dry, and seem just to fade away for us.

I've planted A. cana off and on over the years, but it didn't live each time.

I love A. cana.. my absolute favorite. Grows like a weed for me :)

Marilyn - Congrads on winning! I never win any of the not-a-lottery-lotteries... I gave up when I bought 50 tickets and STILL didn't win anything.

Thanks Toni!

The raffles I always want to win are the ones that Flowers By The Sea offers!

Have you started ordering plants for the Spring, yet?

Marilyn - I only ordered 3 roses from Palatine Roses this year, nothing else. I'll get everything else locally. If it wasn't under a new 8"+ layer of snow, I'd post pictures of how some of my Orange & Grape Nectar agastaches are already sending up new leaves for the spring! Yay!

DH and I love the avatar you're using!

Agastache x 'Kudos Yellow'

Kudos Yellow is brand new, and we are I believe the first nursery in the country to offer it:





A great addition to the group, and all of the colors blend very well.

ooh, that is a beautiful yellow.. does it fade to white or stay yellow?

Kermit,

When I saw it on your site, I knew it was new and had to have it! Thanks for offering it!

Skiekitty said:ooh, that is a beautiful yellow.. does it fade to white or stay yellow?

Hopefully, it doesn't fade.

This Agastache is as good as Summer Glow as far as fading, if not better. And the Kudos series are compact, long blooming and more tolerant of moisture than most others of this genus. Another winner from Terra Nova.

Garden Harvest Supply - Ordered 3/9/15.

Decided to get more plants for the bees/butterflies and a couple of others.

One of each.....

Mint-Spearmint Herb
Black Adder Agastache
Surfinia Deep Red Petunia
Oregano-Greek Herb
May Night Hardy Salvia
Sage-Pineapple Herb
Butterfly Blue Scabiosa

Shipping week of 4/27/15

I placed an order Saturday night to Select Seeds for some plants, but have yet to get an email confirmation from them. I didn't print the conf. # after I submitted the order (we have been out of printer paper) and they won't/don't respond to my emails.

Don't feel like having to make a phone call, so I don't know if any plants from them are going to arrive or not this Spring.

I tried to order again at Select Seeds & Plants tonight and got a confirmed order.

One of each....

Agastache 'Summer Breeze'
Coneflower 'PowWow Wild Berry'
Lantana 'Luscious Marmalade'
Lavender 'Phenomenal'
Lavender 'Violet Intrigue'
