Nursery contributed plant descriptions

White flowers look so cool in summer, and offer a welcome retreat from the screaming hot colors and sweltering heat so typical of the season. Gazebo has purest white flowers with spritely golden button eyes. Excellent also as a foil to separate clashing bright flowers in the garden. Not fussy at all, it is compact and easy to grow in regular, well-drained soil.
