These Great Plant Specials have become very popular with our customers. The plants are not just a bunch of leftovers that we couldn't sell, we select some of our most popular varieties and grow them in large numbers just for these specials. It's a great deal for our customers, and, by growing them in large quantities and selling them in sets of three, we reduce our handling costs significantly, so we both benefit. These specials are sold as sets of three only.
Flowers are small, without petals, chartreuse in color, in loose sprays or clusters.
Alchemilla mollis 'Auslese' has a tight compact habit, making it ideal in the front of the border, as an edging, or as a groundcover. Both the flowers and the leaves are excellent as cuts. It takes a few years, but a well grown specimen of Baptisia australis is a very impressive sight. These are natives of very easy culture, preferring slightly acid, dry soil in sun or light shade. This low growing and steadily spreading plant makes a colorful groundcover with fall foliage that turns bronze red.
