Ready for our Local Camas Plant Fair this Saturday!
The last show of the season! Yay. We’ll be in the usual spot, adjacent to Camas Antiques.
Some special things that you may want to look for at my booth:
The 1st REBLOOMING Mock Orange.. Pearls of Perfume. She’s fragrant and dwarf!
Sanguisorba ‘Lilac Squirrel’ with giant, dramatic pink tails in summer!
Potentilla ‘Arc en Ceil’ forms a low mound that looks like a strawberry on steroids and it’s covered in red flowers with a yellow edge all summer.
For sunny sites:
Andropogan ‘Blackhawks’ Super drought tolerant w/ purple tints that deepen to almost black!
Scullcap, both Texas Pink & Purple. A tight low bun covered in flowers all summer & they are very drought tolerant & deer resistant. Only $7. They look great in groupings of 3!
Butterfly Bush ‘ Violet Cascade ‘ Sterile so she puts all her energy into blooming with the Biggest purple flowers of any Butterfly bush! A true feature plant for a sunny garden.
Vivid Violet Pincushion is a True Perennial. Forms a low cloud of flowers only 15”. Cutie to front a sunny bed.
Allium ‘Pink Planet’ … a summer bloomer w/ big showy lavender flowers .
Erodium chrysanthum, is a rock garden cutie with silver ferny foliage and cream flowers all summer.
Dwarf Reblooming lilacs. White & purple. Fragrant bushes!
Silene ,’Forged by Fire’. A stunning new cultivar with starry red flowers & a strong rebloom.
Blue hibiscus from New Zealand is a beautiful large bush that blooms summer-frost with beautiful bluish flowers & loves the heat. It may need a bit of protection in a hard winter, but could easily be kept in a large pot and brought in for winter.
Caryopteris,' Gold Crest' is a drought tolerant deer repeller shrub with vivid gold foliage and blue fall flowers for pollinators! One of the most reliable deer resistant shrubs!
Clerodendron, ‘Starshine’ A large showstopper with enormous flowers over a glossy bush. Deciduous in our climate, but will reemerge in spring. Needs some room to romp.
Shady Woodland treasures:
New HARDY BEGONIA with incredible foliage and flowers. ‘Lunar Lights Begonia’.
Disporum ‘Kino Tsukasa, & Arisaema triphyla (one of the easiest to grow) w/ unusual hooded flowers,
Podophyllum, ‘Spotty Dotty’ and Giant Leopard Plant (Tractor Seat Plant) for part shade,
Thalictrum ‘Hewitts Double’, ferny foliage and a cloud of airy flowers. Fabulous!
Honeybush Melianthus ,’Antonows Blue’. Architectural with amazing foliage and flowers!
Lustworthy! Salvia ‘Darcyii’ is one of the most hardy and reliable with true red flowers all summer. She even thrives at Colorado Botanical garden. I really like her for any part sun spot.
Ajuga,'Cordial Canary' is a clumper NOT a runner with chartreuse gold foliage and blue spring flowers. Drought tolerant and deer resistant to brighten a shady spot! At only $7, you could line a shady pathway!
Fuchsia speciosa , forms a large bush with fuzzy foliage & orange tubular flowers.
Some cool edibles:
Fignomenal Dwarf Fig! Great for a container.
Assorted currant bushes,
‘Bob Gordon’ Elderberry… a beast that offers tons of black elderberries to make antiviral syrup.
Award winning, ‘Mojo Berry’ dwarf Mulberry that produces in pots. Raspberry Shortcake is a low raspberry suitable for containers. Dwarf sunchokes bursting out of their pots for only $ 5!
They will all be at the edible section beside the booth, as usual.
You can find all the descriptions on my website. Oneearthbotanical.com
I sometimes bring over 300 varieties to a show, so of course there’s more, but these are a few things you may want to consider. Sometimes things get overlooked and lost in the sea of placards.
Hope to see you at the show Saturday!
With Gratitude,
Stephanie
