Dahlia - Speckled - Carribean Cocktail
The Speckled Dahlia Caribbean Cocktail, 'Dahlia Caribbean Cocktail', produces big dahlia's flowers with juicy bright fuchsia-pink petals that have grenadine-red stripes and specks. The pink of this dahlia is so intense it's practically iridescent. These flowers are the freckled rebels of the dahlia garden with their bright petals sparked with red. Like other dahlias, these speckled posies are easy to grow and drink up summer sunshine and heat with gusto. Give these groovy dahlias plenty of bloom boosting fertilizers for a fabulous floral display. These dahlias are perfect for cutting gardens or incorporated in the back of the border. They are hardy zones 8-10, dig and store during winter in colder zones. ... more
Geranium - Southcombe Double The Geranium Southcombe Double, 'Geranium oxonianum', displays fully double, pure pink blooms that sit atop bright green stems. There are only a few double-geraniums in cultivation and don't look like a Geranium at first glance. Southcombe Double blooms almost non-stop throughout the summer, into fall. Geraniums are grown in almost any soil as long as it is not wet. They do best in sun, but will tolerate some degree of shade. For the most part, cranesbill are long-lived and do not require a lot of care. They are perfect in the perennial border and work well as a ground cover too. This plant would look wonderful in a pot on a sun-drenched porch and is also deer resistant. |
