Kalimeris incisa 'Blue Star'
Kalimeris incisa 'Blue Star'
Common Name: Japanese aster

A wonderful pot plant with long retail shelf life and rewarding garden and landscape performance. It loves heat and humidity and breezes through a drought like a champ. Single, one inch, pale blue, daisy-like flowers on a compact mound of green all summer. Resembles Felicia or Brachycomb - but it's hardy! Very popular in Europe and deserves much more recognition here. Many thanks to Ewald Hügen for introducing us to this gem!

Height: 18 Inches
Spread: 18-24 Inches
USDA Hardiness Zone: 5-9

Rudbeckia fulgida var. sullivantii 'Little Goldstar'
Rudbeckia fulgida var. sullivantii 'Little Goldstar'
Common Name: orange coneflower

This knee-high performer is a knockout in the landscape! Selected for copious floral display and dwarf habit with increased manageability, this variety has excellent branching and forms a tidy, compact clump. A bit more floriferous than 'Goldsturm', flowers are held high above rich green foliage and bloom from July into October.

Height: 12-16 Inches
Spread: 12-24 Inches
USDA Hardiness Zone: 4-9
