Known for the incredible mass migration that brings millions of them to California and Mexico each winter, North American monarchs are the only butterflies that make such a massive journey—up to 3,000 miles. Only monarchs born in late summer or early fall make the migration, and they make only one round trip. By the time next year's winter migration begins, several summer generations will have lived and died and it will be the great grandchildren of last year's migrators that make the trip. Yet somehow these new generations know the way, and follow the same routes their ancestors took—sometimes even returning to the same tree. Scientists are concerned about the eastern population of monarchs, which summer east of the Rocky Mountains. This group is occurring in ever smaller numbers, and its survival is threatened by reduced acreage of milkweeds and nectar sources in their summer home. To do our part to help the Monarchs, we are offering 3 species of Milkweed for 2018.
Asclepias incarnata 'Cinderella' Cinderella Milkweed Height: 3-5' Exposure: full sun A hassle-free perennial with compact clusters of vanilla scented, rose pink flowers from mid-summer to early fall. Dried seed pods are interesting and are frequently used in dry arrangements. The long stems are wonderful for cutting. Prefers moist soil. This variety is a food source for both larval and adult Monarch butterflies.
2 gallon (1-14) $7.75 (15+) $7.45
Asclepias syriaca Common Milkweed Asclepias i. 'Cinderella' Height: 36-48” Exposure: sun This native Milkweed typically grows 3-4’ tall on thick, upright stems. Blooming in June and July, it features fragrant, light pink flowers that smell like honey. These are followed by prominent, warty seed pods which split open when ripe releasing their silky-tailed seeds for dispersal by the wind. Once commonly seen along roadsides and fields, this native plant is becoming scarce due to the widespread use of herbicides (glyphosate) on genetically modified farm crops, and habitat destruction. Monarch cater- pillars clearly prefer Common Milkweed for dinner over Swamp Milkweed
or Butterfly Weed.
True 1 gallon (1-14) $6.00 (15+) $5.70 Limited Quantity
Asclepias syriaca Asclepias tuberosa Butterfly Weed Height: 18-24” Exposure: sun This tough, drought tolerant native produces eye-catching orange flowers in summer that attract many varieties of butterflies, especially Monarchs. The dried seed pods are interesting in shape and are frequently used in dry arrangements. This species requires sharply drained soils. Primarily a nectar source rather than a caterpillar food source.

Heuchera & Heucherella Heucheras and Heucherellas are usually a densely mounded perennial producing numerous sprays of white, pink, or red flowers from spring well into summer. Breeding has produced a wide range of foliage textures including smooth, wavy, pubescent, crenate, and crinkled. Foliage colors include yellows, reds, pinks, oranges, purples, silvers, ambers, whites, and greens. Great in mixed containers, they are showy all year and require very little water or maintenance. Both Heucheras and Heucherellas benefit from well drained soils, partial shade, and have become versatile, well-adapted plants for the Midwest garden. Heights listed are without flowers.

HOSTA Perfect for the beginning gardener, hostas are tough, long-lived plants that perform despite neglect. But, for those of us that love plants, Hostas respond wonderfully to amended soils and high fertility, rewarding the attentive gardener profusely. Though not commonly used as such, hostas are a wonderful nectar source for hummingbirds. We are listing 63 cultivars of hosta for 2018, and an additional 12 varieties that are under evaluation. If you don't see something you're interested in, please call.
We are frequently asked how large a particular hosta will get. The size and growth rate of a hosta greatly depends on sunlight, soil type, moisture, and fertility. The best benchmark to use on how large a hosta will grow is to observe other hostas in the area and note their size categories.
