Despite its delicate appearance, Columbine is a low maintenance plant. They are spring bloomers and will die back in the heat of summer, but will happily return the next season!  Number available: 2 pink

Ostrich Ferns - So....I'm not a tall girl at 5'2" but I'm standing in the ferns to give you an idea of how tall and majestic these are on our farm!

The clusters of summer blooms give way to unique seed pods that look just like blackberries, bringing fall interest to the garden and munchies for birds!!

Sedum Autumn Joy - So...there are a gazillion kinds of sedum and I love them all, but one of the reasons I love this particular sedum is.....it's August.....a lot of plants are looking spent or have finished blooming altogether. But this one? This one is just getting cranked up! Its foliage has stood out in the garden all spring and summer long, a pretty jade-green. But starting in late-summer into fall, this plant will regale you with beautiful rosy-pink clusters of blooms that deepen in color as the season progresses, and become a hub for pollinators.  What's not to love? :)  Number available: 2

Monarda (Bee Balm) - This charismatic native plant's unique "spikey hair" bloom brings an air of whimsey and fun to the garden. But there's more! Bee Balm  is a pollinator magnet! Our fuzzy friends absolutely cannot resist it (hence its name)  but it also attracts butterflies and hummingbirds. Also, if you leave the seed heads on in winter, birds will feast on them.  A member of the mint family, Bee Balm will spread somewhat, so give it some room. However, unlike some other forms of mint, it is easy to pull the creepers once or twice a season. It's totally worth it to have this raucous beauty in the garden.   Number available:  SOLD OUT
