Butterfly Bush - Buddleia davidii: Spreads wide, allow plenty of room. Long spike flowers of fragrant 1/8’’ wide florets, light purple or white arranged in 3/4” wide clusters. Should be cut back in late fall. All soils except mostly sandy. Will grow to a height of 6 to 12’. Rosa Rubrifolia - 4’ tall and 4’ wide. An attractive flowering shrub featuring reddish-purple foliage and pretty single pink flowers in early summer; upright habit, very hardy but somewhat susceptible to disease, good for adding color to the garden; needs full sun and well-drained soil.

Rose of Sharon - Hibiscus syriacus: An 8 to 12‘ shrub with a 6 to 10’ spread, standing very erect. Medium growth. Grows in most soil except those extremely wet or dry. Does best in most well drained soils, which have been supplemented with peat moss. Flowers are 2 to 4” across in July - Sept. Full sun to partial shade. Should be pruned in spring for a better show of flowers. Trumpet Vine - a native deciduous climbing vine, 30 to 40' high or wide depending if growth is supported upright or creeping. Leafs late in spring, showing, tubular orange-scarlet colored flowers in July- Aug. Pruning back or thinning may be beneficial. Most soils except wet. Full sun. Use as a screen, to cover rock piles, train up trellis, a poor climber needing extra support to grow vertically. Flowers attract hummingbirds.

BONUS THIS SEASON: 2 Liatris Bulbs - Liatris Spicata: A plant which produces spikes of long flower heads above strap-like leaves. Strong purple flower heads are produced in the summer. In flower it will reach 24" in height with a spread of 18".
