This heavy bloomer gets its name from the way each flower bud swells before its starry petals unfold. Balloon flowers are one of the easiest perennials you'll ever grow, and they bloom in profusion in mid to late summer, when many other perennials are beginning to fade. The plants form a low, neat mound and bear 2- to 3-inch cuplike blossoms. Balloon flowers are a cottage garden standard, excellent for cutting. To make the flowers last in the vase, sear the stems with a match or candle flame immediately after cutting. They thrive in full sun or light shade in well-drained garden soil. They appreciate a little afternoon shade in zones 7-8. You won't find a more carefree perennial! Just work a little slow-release fertilizer into the soil in spring, and pick off the flowers as they fade to encourage more blooms. Moderate drought conditions aren't a problem, but it helps to water the plants deeply when the soil dries out too much or if drought conditions persist. Balloon flowers are seldom bothered by insects, and they are very cold-hardy. Plan the plant's position carefully and mark it to avoid weeding it out in early spring, for spring growth is late to appear.

Our bamboo rootstock is cut from surface runners from our own grove. Once established, it will spread out and produce stems up to 30' tall and 2" in diameter, so it should NOT be planted too close to the house or overhead utility lines! However, weekly mowing in the springtime will keep it from taking over. Ours makes a great privacy "hedge" on the property line, and the stakes and poles have a multitude of uses. The young shoots are even edible if you catch them at just the right stage!

Penstemons come from areas with rough growing conditions and should never be exposed to wet or damp earth. A thin, rocky soil in full sun is best. Penstemon species are often used in xeriscape landscaping, as many are native to desert or alpine regions and thus quite hardy. Native Americans long used Penstemon roots to relieve toothache. Foliage is evergreen in warmer climates. Tubular flowers are in clusters atop strong stems, somewhat like foxglove, and blooming from spring into summer. Plants are best set out in groups so that a mass of flowers is in view. Cut back each stem after flowering to a place just above a set of leaves that show new growth. You may get another flowering later in the summer or early fall. Wait until all chance of a freeze is over, then cut back your penstemon, leaving stems that are just 6 inches long. This way, the plant will bush out and have a more compact form.

Hardy begonia is a monoecious, clump-forming herbaceous perennial that typically forms a bushy mound of foliage to 2’ tall on branching stems. Large leaves are medium to olive green. Male and female pink flowers (to 1” across) bloom in pendent clusters from July to early fall. These plants prefer part to full shade, and don't like to be dry. The showy flower and spreading habit make it great for woodland naturalizing. Deadhead flowers to extend bloom period. It's a good late summer flowering shade plant which mixes well with hostas and ferns in the shade garden, woodland garden, or shaded border. Plants may also self-seed. New season growth is usually late to appear.

Columbines bloom in April and early May. They like medium to light watering once established in poor to average, but well-drained soil. Partial shade is preferred, but full sun is tolerated with slightly more watering. The highly attractive blooms are long-lasting cut flowers. Consider adding Aquilegia to rock gardens, shady borders, or in masses along walks or drives.

Coneflowers are like Black-Eyed Susan's with sturdy dark cones and bright pink petals. This variety has bright pink petals and is somewhat shorter than the others I offer. They do best in full sun but will take some shade, and are tolerant of hot, dry, windy sites. Best if used in borders, meadows, butterfly gardens, masses, small gardens, and containers. The dead flower stems will remain erect well into the winter and, if flower heads are not removed, are often visited by goldfinches who perch on or just below the blackened cones to feed on the seeds.

Coneflowers are like Black-Eyed Susan's with sturdy dark cones and bright pink petals. This one has larger numbers of center "ray" flowers, making the "cone" part of the flower larger and fuller than my other coneflowers. They do best in full sun but will take some shade, and are tolerant of hot, dry, windy sites. Best if used in borders, meadows, butterfly gardens, masses, small gardens, and containers.

Also known as Alum Root, Heuchera is a beautiful genus of perennial foliage plants that will add a punch of color to any shady spot in your garden. This one is larger and not as dark as the other dark variety we offer. Coral Bells begin blooming in May and continue through the summer months. We suggest dead-heading to prolong the bloom season. Will grow in any well-drained alkaline soil. Even though they tolerate a couple hours of shade, best results are achieved when grown in full sun. They are drought tolerant, very cold hardy (Zone 4), and many of them will even stay evergreen through the winter.
