Carex muskingumensis
Carex muskingumensis

USDA Hardiness Zone: 4-8

Heuchera 'Frosted Violet'
Heuchera 'Frosted Violet'
Common Name: alumroot, coral bells

Another great selection for the East Coast bred by Charles Oliver of the Primrose Path. With its H. villosa heritage, it is vigorous and long-lived. Stunningly beautiful velvety purple leaves with darker veins are topped with pale pink pearl-like flowers in late spring. Definitely one of our favorites!

Spread: 12 Inches
USDA Hardiness Zone: 4-9

Iris cristata 'Powder Blue Giant'
