| Celandine Poppy | Stylophorum diphyllum |
|
This attractive woodland plant will grow well in zones 4-8 in with little to no care in rich woodland soils. It can tolerate drier, sunnier sites with some care. Imagine these bright yellow poppies next to some blue Jacob's Ladder or Mertensia, pinkish Trout Lily or white Trillium in a spring, woodland garden! A welcome, well-deserved sight in April after a long winter. After seeds drop out of its large, hairy pods, Celandine Poppy will go dormant. Seedlings will readily emerge everywhere if fresh seed is scattered on the soil surface. Ants typically aid in seed dispersal. This plant should not be confused with Chelidonium majus, Greater Celandine a Eurasian semi-weedy biennial often present in highly disturbed areas. The leaves and flowers of the two can be very difficult to distinguish, but they are very different in the seeding stage; Chelidonium has a long, hairless "legume" look, while Stylophorum's fuzzy pods (photos, left) are unmistakable. |

This variety has green strawberry-like leaves, bearing sprays of double button flowers of orange-red with a bronzy center. Brilliant flowers brighten any shady area of the landscape. Trim off faded bloom stems to encourage more buds to form. Plants may be sheared back after blooming, to rejuvenate the foliage. Division may be done in early spring or in the fall. Cut back to the ground in spring. |

Like Athyrium n. ‘Pictum’ on steroids, this giant painted fern was discovered at Plant Delights Nursery in the mid-90s and is thought to be a sporeling of ‘Pictum’ and the Lady Fern. It forms a massive, arching clump of silvery fronds with green highlights and dark purple stems. Like the Lady Fern, ‘Godzilla’ spreads slowly where it is happiest in moist, loamy soils. Grow this fern as a low maintenance filler in shady borders combined with large hostas and Aralia ‘Sun King’. |

| Fern (Red Stemmed Painted) | Athyrium niponicum |
|
A recently introduced deciduous fern which is similar to A. n. 'Pictum'. It has silvery-green fronds, but the stems and veins are much brighter red. (Note: This red color takes 2-3 years to develop.) Its broad habit makes this cultivar a good groundcover for moist, shady areas. It grows quickly if provided with moist, well-drained soil. An excellent foil for any other perennial, its silvery fronds set off all the other colors in the garden. Try combining it with tiarella, hosta, myosotis, or pulmonaria. |

| Foamflower | Tiarella hybrid |
|
‘Jade Peacock’ grows into a very densely compact clump that won’t run all over the garden like the groundcover types of Tiarellas. From early spring into early summer depending on the climate, spikes of light pink buds appear above the foliage, bursting open into creamy white, lightly fragrant, star-like blossoms. The flowers are spaced closely together on the stems, creating greater visual impact. This beautiful woodland perennial provides year round interest with its evergreen, feathery patterned foliage. In spring, the new foliage emerges bright yellowish green with a prominent, deep red center, maturing to jade green with a deep purple center in summer. In winter, the evergreen foliage turns deep mahogany purple with a black center. |

Fuchsia Windchimes Upright is a companion series to the popular Windchimes basket varieties that were bred and selected to be tolerant of warmer growing conditions and higher light levels. The goal was to develop fuchsias that would sustain growth through the summer months. Windchimes Upright possesses a plant form ideal for production in containers versus the trailing form that’s most commonly used in hanging baskets. | n/a |  |

'Coast to Coast’ is a giant, solid gold hosta that makes a striking specimen in the shade garden. Its foliage emerges gold in spring and turns lighter gold with a bit more sun exposure in the summer months. As the leaves mature, they become thick and puckered with wavy edges and have nearly white undersides. The upright vase-shaped clump is topped with green scapes carrying pale violet flowers in midsummer. This hosta tends to be more slug resistant because of its thick substance foliage and rigidly upright habit. It can be grown as a single specimen in a large container or in a prominent place in the landscape. |
