Right now is the ideal time to buy plants that you want to enjoy in your landscape for years to come. These plants are hardy and want to live here. They are fast growing and either beautiful or delicious or both. We have an excellent selection of the items listed here, all only $7.97 each, 10am-2pm, this Thursday June 22, Friday June 23 and Saturday June 24. Do we have more variety? Sure do, come see. These are what look fantastic right now and are a for real deal at only $7.97 each.

Café au Lait Dahlias (left), only $7.97 each! Cafe au Lait is a spectacular decorative dahlia, huge flowers in fall and an excellent tuber producer.

Yes -- we also have Lavender Ruffles dahlias (right), pre sprouted in 3 quart round pots! These are really vigorous!

Dahlias are native to this continent, the national flower of Mexico, and grow much like potatoes or tomatoes in full sun. Dahlias are edible! You plant outside after last frost in May and can take off the side blooms for a bigger dinnerplate flower (like tomatoes). Our tubers have been outside for a month now and have lovely sprouts ready to transplant. (Yes, you can grow dahlias in containers - try fabric pots!)

You said hydrangeas, choose from Chantilly Lace, Pee Gee Grandiflora, Phantom, and Limelight, all Sun Hydrangea paniculata. Yes, that means you can plant them in full sun, or part sun and enjoy them for years. The Chantilly Lace especially are well branched and beautiful. Still $7.97 until they sell out again.

These are all sun hydrangea, Hydrangea paniculata grandiflora is known as "Pee Gee Pink" -- and fantastic for training into a tree (by pruning). Give them at least 6 hours of sun for a beautiful summer hedge. Gorgeous dried or cut flowers.

You said trees, Yes, we have native trees! Choose from small understory trees like White flowering dogwood (Cornus florida) prefers some shade, like Eastern Redbud (Cercis canadensis) and thorny Black Locust (Robinia pseudoacacia). Ozark witch hazel flowers early in spring also.

Bald Cypress trees (Taxodium distichum) grows tall and so tough you'll see them planted in the parking lots and in low areas in the parks.

Wide Brim Hosta, sun tolerant and thick, $7.97 each. Carex appalachica sedge for part sun. I got 4 types of sedge available right now: New Zealand orange sedge Carex testacea, New Zealand hair sedge Carex comans 'Amazon Mist', and Carex 'Ice Dance' variegated Japanese sedge. Heat tolerant with some shade.

Left to Right: New Zealand orange sedge Carex testacea, Miscanthus 'Morning Light' maiden grass, Purple fountain grass. Great for summer to fall, in containers or in the ground!

If you are not growing buttonbush, you need to come here and get you a couple. This might be the perfect native shrub. Likes part sun to part shade, (most conditions: 2-8 hours of sun) and can deal with both clay and standing water, grows happily and responds well to hard pruning if you like that sort of thing :D.
Called "Honey Balls" cause it is fantastic for beekeepers -- most nectar per square inch -- loaded with bees, or buttonbush cause the flowers are 1" wide and spheres like homemade cloth buttons. It is going to eventually be a small tree, but won't mind at all if you shear it up to the size you want. Also another good one to prune into a tree form. Your fancy neighbor might have a Japanese red maple but YOU will have a similarly sized small tree that is covered in pollinators June through August.

Cephalanthus occidentalis
