Petunia "Forest Fire Glo"
There is no color like this in the Petunia family, and we find it enchanting! A mixture of peach and violet with spidery red veins and a dark throat, it is so bright it nearly glows -- and will draw attention and compliments from everyone who sees it! Appearing on 3-inch blooms all over a compact, mounding plant perfect for containers, this color is just electrifying!
Glow Forest Fire is a very compact, long-blooming type suitable for containers, especially hanging baskets and windowboxes, where it shows off its dense, well-branched, flower-filled form to great advantage. The large blooms begin in early summer and keep coming all season and well into fall, ceasing only with the first hard frost. |

Aquilegia "Clementine Mixed"
The Clementine Series is the culmination of years of intensive breeding and carefully dedicated hybridizing, resulting in an awarding winning series and completely new generation of columbines, or Granny's bonnets, as they are sometimes called.
Gone are the days of the tall, lanky columbines that leaned out from the back of beds to display their downward facing flowers. In the Clementine series, we have short, bushy, compact plants with masses of double and semi-double, upward facing flowers. Nice as the old style ones are, this is a breeding breakthrough that has real "flower power": a compact, "no need to stake" habit; and a range of colors allowing us to give our gardens a lively burst of refreshing vibrancy, at a time of year when the weather conditions can be unpredictable |
