    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    We love flowers, yes, but good foliage is essential for that perfect garden vignette. This gorgeous tropical deep rose hibiscus blooms too late for many up North; we have to be satisfied with the foliage only. But what leaves! They look like a bushy garnet red Japanese maple with serrated leaves. Grow in contrast with lime green and orange plants for that wow factor!
