Azorina vidalii (Azores Bellflower) - Azorina vidalii is a small upright semi-succulent branching subshrub that grows to 18 inches tall by an almost equal width with a candelabra form. It develops woody stems and branches in whorls bearing crowded shiny glossy-green spathulate leaves in clusters toward the branch tips - older leaves drop off to expose succulent lower stems. In mid-summer the plant is topped with 1 to 2 foot long panicles of 1 inch long, nodding bell-shaped flowers, which are a beautiful shell-pink color and have with a thick waxy texture. Plant in full coastal sun to medium shade in a well-drained soil and water regularly to only occasionally. Does not like overly humid conditions or wet heavy soils - great for dry shade. Often listed as very tender but can tolerate short-duration temperatures below freezing. Azorina vidalii is short lived as flowering stems die but sets abundant seed and can persist in gardens by reseeding - plants begin flowering their third year from seed. This plant, previously known as Campanula vidalii, was discovered on a rock off the east coast of Flores Island in the Azores in 1842 by a Captain Vidal and named to honor the location and its discoverer. It is a superb shrubby perennial for growing in the cool house, with thick, fleshy leaves and elegant racemes of beautiful, pink, large, drooping, wax-like, bell-shaped flowers with an orange eye in summer.

THIS LISTING IS FOR 5 SEEDS OF CRASSULA PERFORATA Crassula perforata is a small shrubby and sprawling succulent up to 18 inches (45 cm) tall. The stem is erect, fleshy, later prostrate and woody. Short, broad ovate, opposite, gray-green leaves edged in pink color with small whitish or pink dots on the margin, up to 0.8 inch (2 cm) long and up to 0.5 inch (13 mm) wide. The flowers are very small, star-shaped and white in color. USDA hardiness zone 9a to 11b: from 20 °F (−6.7 °C) to 50 °F (+10 °C). Crassula are easy to grow, but they are susceptible to mealy bugs and fungal diseases. As with all succulents, overwatering is sure to be fatal, so err on the side of too dry rather than too wet. Never let your Crassula sit in water. If you water from beneath by letting the plant sit in a saucer of water, make sure to pour off any excess water after a few minutes. Crassula perforata - String of Buttons: Attractive plant, similar to Socialis (Ring Plant) but with smaller and tighter leaves. The leaves are pale green in color with bright rosy pink edges. The leaves grow in a spiral around the stem. Can get to 10 inches if left to grow and will form small colonies. Tender soft succulent - will not tolerate frost. The 'String of Buttons' or 'Necklace Vine' (Crassula perforata) is a small, "stacked" and compact scrambling succulent shrublet that stays relatively low and clumps readily. It is up to 45 cm tall or more, with secondary branches rising nearly vertically bearing subdistant or distant leaf pairs, that are congested at the leaf tips. It blooms with inconspicuous pale yellow flowers in spring. The leaf margins often have reddish tinges and is quite showy. This plant is called Necklace Vine because the leaves can be rotated around on the stem like beads on a string (this unfortunately to the detriment of the plant as this breaks the petiole, the leaf connection to the stem) or String of Buttons because the opposing pairs of lower cordate leaves appear threaded onto the stems and also Pagoda plant because of the regular arrangement of the leaves at the branch tip.
Whether it's brutally hot or freezing cold, these 17 varieties of sedum will look good any time of year. There are many colors and sizes to pick from.
With striking color and texture, this fast-growing succulent is an attractive addition to rock gardens and mixed succulent plantings. The tightly whorled rosettes of fleshy blue-gray leaves freely produce offsets, forming a densely mounded mat. Bright pink blooms on long slender stems appear throughout summer. A frost-tender evergreen.

(USPP 13,080 expired) If you are already excited about hostas, wait until you grow Hosta 'Touch of Class'. This is the first in a series of intentional hosta conversions from diploid to tetraploid. Hosta 'Touch of Class' comes from the popular Hosta 'June'. The central pattern of the doubly-thick leaves is chartreuse-gold, surrounded by a very wide, blue-green border. In midsummer, the 2' wide clumps are topped with thick 2' tall scapes of light lavender flowers...a hummingbird treat. We have grown this side by side with Hosta 'June' for several years and find Hosta 'Touch of Class' more intensely and dramatically colored...we think you will agree! Maintenance: Hosta 'Touch of Class' is essentially a maintenance free perennial. Once the plant has gone dormant in fall, you may wish to remove the old foliage, which helps tidy the garden. Old flower stalks may be removed after flowering, which we feel helps with clump appearance. Growing Conditions: Hostas always grow better in rich, moist soil. They thrive best in clay or amended clay soils, but amended sandy loam can be successful if additional compost or other organic nutrients are added. Dry soils are not problematic for a short time, but hostas will decline if the soil is kept dry over an extended period. Light shade to a couple of hours of early morning sun are best. Dark shade will not result in a satisfactory plant. Garden Value: Hostas like 'Touch of Class' are great to brighten a woodland garden. Their bold texture makes a nice garden foil to more airy-textured perennials. Natural Impacts: Hosta flowers are always a great source of nectar for honeybees.

Green Aloe or Mauritius Hemp are two of the many Furcraea Foetida common names. This sword-shaped succulent grows up to 1 metre tall and belongs to the Asparagaceae family. The evergreen plant is native to the Caribbean and Northern South America. Growth Rate Whether you grow the plant indoors or outdoors, in a pot or in a container, in a garden or near a window sill, the rate of growth of this succulent is slow. Flowering The Furcraea Foetida flowers bloom in spring and summer with a strong scent that lasts for days. The color of the flowers is greenish to creamy white. Watering and Feeding Water it moderately during summers and the blooming season but after that, it requires only occasional watering. To feed your green aloe, use a controlled-release fertilizer at the start of the growing season. Soil Green Aloe prefers slightly acidic soil with a well-draining mix. Before you plant it, ensure that the soil is completely dry and know dead roots exist. Hardiness The Mauritius Hemp grows best in semi-humid environments and can tolerate temperatures as low as -4°C. They belong to a hardiness zone of 9a. Light This is a light-loving plant and should be planted in an area where it can get plenty of sunlight. Choose a spot that gets full sun and light shade. Propagation Mauritius hemp propagation can be done by small plantlets that appear at the bottom of the plant. Repot them in containers and be careful of how much water you provide. Beware of mites. They can be difficult to spot but are noticeable when the plant’s leaves will start to curl. Get rid of them by using insecticide soap.

Color: Apricot, gold, tangerine, white pastel mix Papaver nudicaule. The Iceland Poppy is a hardy, but short-lived perennial, grown as a biennial in Coastal gardens. Either way, they self sow readily, so will last for years at a time. The large, cup shaped blooms have a texture like crepe paper and appear in a range of subdued pastel colours - apricot, gold, tangerine, and white. Sow Iceland Poppy seeds in early spring or late fall where they are to grow permanently. The flower stalks grow to around 30c (12”) tall, and are among the longest-lasting poppies as cut flowers. They are highly attractive to honeybees and bumblebees, with seeds that are easy to collect and disperse. Unlike the California Poppy, this variety usually remains where it was planted. All parts of the plant are mildly toxic, but acrid enough that animals will not eat them. Perennial Difficulty Easy Season & Zone Exposure: Full sun to partial shade Zone: 1-10 Poppies flower best under cool spring weather conditions. Start perennial poppies outdoors in early spring, when some chance of frost is still a possibility. Start annual varieties outdoors at the same time in Zones 3-7. If you live in Zones 8-10, your best bet is to direct sow in the fall. Poppies are famously difficult to transplant, so starting them indoors is not recommended. If you have to start them indoors, use peat or coir pots, and maintain a soil temperature of 12°C (55°F). Seeds will sprout in 20-30 days. *Reminder, poppies good germination under 12°C (55°F) In cooler climates, Iceland Poppy plants perform like a perennial for 2 - 3 years. Iceland Poppies prefer full sun and a fertile, well-drained soil. Early flowers during cool weather will be the largest.
