Our Favorite Plants
Even though we are surrounded by
beautiful plants all day, we can't help choosing favorites each
season. Come in and tell us about your growing conditions (sun,
drainage, other plantings) and we'll help you choose the plants that
are right for your Virginia gardens and containers. Read about annuals, herbs, hostas, and perennials. |

Annuals
Annuals are garden
plants that give you all their glory in their first year. They may
live for several years in another climate, but here they generally
last just one year.
Why use them? Annuals provide an
instant pop of color and usually cost less than perennials. In
addition, most will bloom all summer long, giving you lots of
nonstop color.

Herbs
Herbs are so versatile! They add beauty to our gardens and containers and they can add flavor and creativity to our food.
We offer culinary herbs, bug repellent herbs, scented herbs, and more. Great for gardens and containers. Keep a pot of fresh herbs in your kitchen!

Hostas
Yes, hostas are perennials, but they are so hardworking, they deserve their own page!
Plant these reliable specimens once and they will come back every year, providing texture, color, and a wonderful backdrop for your annuals and other perennials.

Perennials
Perennials are
plants that will return each season, living year after year.
Why use them? Perennials are helpers in your garden. Once you plant
your perennials, they will come up each year without the work and
expense of shopping and planting. In addition, perennials provide a
structure for your garden so that you can showcase annuals,
containers, or your favorite yard art.
Once they are established, some perennials will grow large enough to
divide, giving you a new plant for somewhere else in your yard. Come
on in and we'll show you how.
