Petunia - Supertunia ® Mini White

The Petunia Supertunia ® Mini White, 'Petunia hybrids', are wonderfully fragrant and have masses of small flowers and a vigorous trailing habit that turn hanging baskets and decorative urns into garden masterpieces. The Mini White Petunia has beautiful white flowers. Supertunias are a vigorously trailing species of an everblooming, long-living petunia from Australia. They will provide long-term color in full sun areas throughout the season, and can grow nearly an inch a day. They are ideal for baskets, beds, balconies and combination plantings. Supertunias are very heat and drought tolerant once established in the ground or pot. They do not need to have their dead flower heads removed to continue flowering and they are not leggy. Supertunias grow fast and therefore need ample moisture and fertilzer. For zones 9-11, this plant can also be a perennial. ... find out more

 

Herb - Greek Oregano The Greek Oregano, 'Origanum vulgare hirtum', is a more prostrate and more highly scented than Italian oregano. Greek Oregano blooms readily in the second year. Plant in well drained soil will help during periods of excessive rain, and raised beds filled with organic topsoil and compost are good for this plant also. Like most herbs, six hours of sun is preferable to fully develop those mouth watering flavors. And mulching is always a good practice to improve the soil and help keep root zone temperatures moderate. Harvest fresh leaves right before you are going to use them. Greek Oregano can be used fresh or dried.
