Rose 'Felicia'

I know what you are thinking. Roses are high maintenance plants. I agree with you. But the pillar variety of Felicia rose will not disappoint you. In fact, it’s considered one of the best roses in its group. Felicia is a strong and shapely flower with a strong fragrance. It retains its shape well and makes for an excellent cut flower. Although its yield is more generous when planted into the ground, the Felicia does well in large containers as well.

Yarrow

Yarrow plants are generally popular as border plantings. They are drought and heat tolerant and their feathery, fern-like foliage adds an interesting look to any landscape. The Paprika yarrow is especially popular owing to its spicy red color, which fades to a salmon and then finally to cream. Watch your garden change color in front of your eyes.

Stonecrop

Stonecrop is yet another plant which is easy to grow in your garden. Not only is it an excellent garden plant, it also does well in rock gardens. It yields pinkish red flowers that turn dark red when the weather becomes cooler.
