An F1 hybrid breeding breakthrough. Excellent bloom production during short days for cut flowers. GREENHOUSE: Sow in Jan. or early Feb. Freeze seed for 24 hrs. just before sowing, to break dormancy. Use Jiffy Mix or fine sand for a growing medium. Germinate in cool soil at 54°F/12°C for 20 days, according to color (best colors are smallest seedlings). High temp. will prevent germ. Grow seedlings cool, at 60°F/16°C days and 50°F/10°C nights. DIRECT SOWING: Sow outside in late August in cool soil. Freeze seed 24 hours before sowing. Do not pinch the flower heads. For improved blossoms, add lime to the soil each year. -

Stunning, brightly-colored spikes create a strong feature in the early summer garden. Its pea-like flowers grow in dense spires. Scatter through cottage or wildflower gardens or mass plant in the border. Purple, deep blue, red, pink, yellow, cream, and white. Lupins prefer a full sun position but will also grow well in semi-shade, they do not grow well in full shade. They grow well in a wide variety of soil conditions although chalky and/or waterlogged soil will be a problem if not improved before planting. If the ground is clay, lots of compost dug into the planting area will greatly increase their chances of surviving winters. Once your Lupins start to flower create new plants if you want more of a certain colour, gently separate the little offset at the base of a mature plant and replant it. -

Yucca filamentosa, commonly called Adam’s needle, Spanish bayonet, yucca and needle palm, is a virtually stemless broadleaf evergreen shrub (though it looks more like a perennial than a shrub) that is native to beaches, sand dunes and fields from South Carolina south to Florida and Mississippi. It has escaped cultivation and extended its original range north into New England. It features a basal rosette of rigid, sword-shaped, spine-tipped green leaves (to 30” long and to 4” wide) with long filamentous (as per specific epithet) curly threads along the margins. Leaves form a foliage clump to 2-3’ tall. In late spring, a flowering stalk rises from the center of each rosette, typically to 5-8’ tall, but infrequently to 12’ tall, bearing a long terminal panicles of nodding bell-shaped creamy white flowers. Fruits are elliptical dehiscent capsules. Will form a small colony over time from basal offsets. Genus name comes from the Carbi name for manihot, also called cassava or yuca, which is not closely related but has similarly enlarged root structures. Specific epithet means with filaments or threads. -

Where winters are harsh, it's common to grow vinca as an annual. Vinca blooms in spring to early summer and can bloom in fall if cut back in the summer. In late summer, before temperatures drop, cut back vinca vines to half their length or less to increase fall flowering. To increase the odds of vinca survival where freezing is common, overwinter vinca in a protected place. Pot the plants in the fall before the ground hardens and move them to a greenhouse or indoors near a south-facing window. -

The monkshood plant is an herbaceous wildflower that can be found growing in mountain meadows throughout the northern hemisphere. The plant gets its name from the shape of the posterior sepal of the flowers, which resembles the cowls worn by monks. Also known as wolfsbane and Aconitum, monkshood has become popular as a garden addition because of its purple/blue flowers and attractive foliage. Growing 2 to 4 feet (0.5 to 1 m.) tall and 1 to 2 feet (0.5 m.) wide, perennial monkshood is best grown as a background plant. The leaves of the monkshood plant are palmate, meaning hand-shaped, with lobed “fingers” that often have toothed edges and vary in color from light to dark green. In late summer or early fall, it sends up showy spires of purple/blue flowers. Monkshead is not invasive and is both deer and rabbit resistant. However, monkshood, or wolfsbane, is moderately difficult to grow and once planted, doesn’t like to be moved so the best way to grow monkshood is to choose your spot carefully. It sometimes takes a while for it to become established. -
