Daffodil - Peruvian
The leaves are strap-like and may be up to two feet long. The 4-inch flowers are borne atop 2-foot, leafless flower stalks in midsummer. The Peruvian Daffodil, 'Ismene Festalis', produce large flower clusters that rise from Amaryllis-like foliage. This daffodil may be started indoors and it is very fragrant. Each stem may hold 2 to 5 flowers, which are white with green stripes. Peruvian daffodils are hardy in zones 8 to 10, but can be grown outside this range if the bulbs are dug and stored in a frost-free location over winter. ... get more information
Geranium - Southcombe Double The Geranium Southcombe Double, 'Geranium oxonianum', displays fully double, pure pink blooms that sit atop bright green stems. There are only a few double-geraniums in cultivation and don't look like a Geranium at first glance. Southcombe Double blooms almost non-stop throughout the summer, into fall. Geraniums are grown in almost any soil as long as it is not wet. They do best in sun, but will tolerate some degree of shade. They are perfect in the perennial border and work well as a ground cover too. This plant would look wonderful in a pot on a sun-drenched porch and is also deer resistant. |
