COREOPSIS and SEDUM

Our new 'Plant Index' page lists all the plants we expect to have available for the 2010 shipping season.

Coreopsis and Sedum are staples in the perennial garden. Each has several species that produce beautiful flowers and some bloom for an extended period of time. Both Coreopsis and Sedum will generally tolerate heat and drought. A few species in each genus attract butterflies for nectar.

Among the Coreopsis we offer are Coreopsis grandiflora 'Early Sunrise', Coreopsis lanceolata 'Sterntaler', Coreopsis 'Tequila Sunrise', Coreopsis rosea 'American Dream', and the new Coreopsis 'Limerock Ruby'. Included in our choices of Sedum offerings are Sedum spectabile 'Autumn Joy', Sedum 'Meteor', Sedum 'Matrona', Sedum kamtschaticum, and Sedum 'Tricolor'.
