RECOMMENDED PLANT LIST
We will emphasize drought-resistent perennials. We have found that divisions made in the fall give the best results for a well filled out, saleable plant in the time for the sale in April. We will be offering 4", 6" and gallon size containers.
Here are some suggestions of plants that are easily divisable in the fall:
- Pacific Coast Iris (divide in Nov.-Dec.)
Dianthus
Eriogonum
Stachys
Gazania
Tulbaghia (Society Garlic)
Hellbores
Ferns
Heuchera
Tiarella
Hemerocallis (especially the newer cultivars)
Thyme
Oregano
Artemisia
Rosemary
Convolvulus sabatius (ground morning glory)
Ceratostigma plumbaginoides (Dwrf plumbage)
Carex
Campanula
Grasses
Geraniums and Pelargoniums
Euphorbias
Salvia
Succulents
And many more.
But if you have a good looking, saleable plant that doesn’t fit in our drought resistent category we’d love to have that too. Different strokes for different folks!
