Wow!  It’s been great to see the sun this past week!  Things are growing so fast in the greenhouses.  We’ve been making multiple deliveries each week to the nurseries which has kept us really busy.  I thought I’d post some pictures of ‘Spring’. There’s nothing like a flower to make you heart sing!

Petchoa ‘Velvet’

A cross between a petunia & a calibrachoa ( million bells).  I used this in some of our mixed combo hanging baskets & it’s absolutely stunning!  We’ll have a few more colors available in 4″ pots in the next two weeks.

Verbena ‘Donalena Purple Velvet’

I love this plant & so do the butterflies!  Verbenas hold up well in the summer heat & are so easy to grow.  They do great in a pot or hanging basket.

Easy Wave Petunia ‘Neon Rose’

One of the 15 colors of wave petunias we grow!  I love ’em all!

 

Petchoa “Neon Rose’

Another beautiful Petchoa.

Carnation ‘Starlette’

Beautiful perennial with a wonderful scent!
