We have Butterfly W**d (Asclepias tuberosa), Hello Yellow Butterfly W**d, Asclepias exaltata, Asclepias sullivantii, Whorled Milkweed (Asclepias vericillata), Swamp Milkweed (Asclepias incarnata) and Silky Butterfly W**d, a tropical species grown as a tender perennial.

LA Dreamin’ Hydrangeas Hot Off The Truck!

These plants are famous for producing a stunning mix of pink, blue, lavender and purple hues, all on the same plant. It is a reblooming variety that flowers on both old and new wood, requiring only minimal pruning to remove dead wood and spent blooms. Add these to borders, foundation plantings and containers in a sunny area of the garden that will be shielded from the hot afternoon sun. As these beauties naturally display several bloom colors at once, it will add a watercolor effect in your landscape that few other hydrangeas can match.
