Petunias look pretty in pink🌸💅 … but also in purple, or yellow, or red!! Dress her up with the perfect color name & get obsessed with these bright takes on a classic annual flower:

Just LOOK at these names:
-Royal Pink
-Sweetunia Purple Gem
-Black & White
-Plum Cockatoo
-Headliner Blue
-Night Sky
-Blueberries & Cream
-Jewel Frosted Sapphire
-Headliner White
-Bee’s Knees
-Banarama
-Mayan Sunset
-Glamoflage Pink Lemonade
-Premium Rose Star
-Cosmic Purple
-Black Magic
-Gingersnap
-Jewel Diamond Pink

I think naming colors like this would be such a fun job, so I’m curious: Which petunia name is your favorite?
AND which one(s) do you think does not match the flower?

Petunias are annual flowers, meaning they grow, bloom, and complete their life cycle in one growing season. They’re loved for their season-long color, fast growth, and ability to absolutely COVER containers, hanging baskets, raised beds, & sunny garden spaces with blooms from spring to frost🌿✨

Supertunias & Crazytunias are especially popular for their vigorous growth, unique colors, and nonstop flowering. We also have Wave petunias for cascading color, classic bedding flat petunias, and their tiny-but-mighty cousin calibrachoa (million bells) available!

Petunias love sunshine & regular watering— provide that & they’ll reward you with season long color🌸

Open Monday through Saturday 8am to 6pm
Closed Sundays

Annuals or perennials? Which do you prefer?🌷✨🌱

Annual flowers are planted each year and are loved for their nonstop color from spring until frost. They’re perfect for:
-porch pots & hanging baskets
-filling raised beds with long-lasting blooms🌸
-bright pops of color🌻
-changing up your color palette from season to season
-feeding the bees & butterflies (fuschia, lantana, zinnia, salvia, etc.)🐝

Annuals spend their all their energy on blooming because they’ve just got the one season! Because of this, they tend to flower bigger, longer & more continuously throughout the growing season.🌺

Perennials, one the other hand, return year after year from the same roots! They’re the backbone for many gardens and are great for:
-native inspired plantings🌾
-long-term landscape design🌳
-building layered gardens that mature over time
-supporting pollinators & local ecosystem🦋

Many perennials provide important food and habitat for pollinators, birds and beneficial insects. Plus, once established they take little to no care in comparison to annuals.

For all theses reasons (and a few I’m sure I forgot) River Street Flowerland likes to use a mix of both in the garden. Dependable Perennial Structure + Season-long Annual Color = Garden Magic🌱🌷✨

Today, Dahlias have decided they’re the ‘main character’✨✨

We have more colors of dahlias in gallon sized pots than ever before— and the first of our XLG dahlia are beginning to bloom too! So far we’ve seen pink, orange, and a red & white beauty.🌸

Funny enough, most of these dahlia tubers make it to us unlabeled or sometimes incorrectly, so we don’t actually know what colors we have until the begin to flower. Check back throughout the month to see else comes into color!

Notes on Dahlias:
🌱They are annual flowers here in Michigan, meaning they will not survive the winter outdoors
🌱They love sun, warmth, and consistent watering
🌱Once they get going they will bloom all summer long, especially with regular deadheading
🌱Make a colorful, dramatic addition to the yard or container garden (also great cut flower!)

Try saving for next year by cutting back the plant in the fall, digging up the tubers, let them dry out a little bit & then store in a cool, dark place for winter. Replant in spring once frost danger has passed!

Buy 1, Get 1🌸

Stock (Matthiola incana) is one of our favorite early-season flowers for a reason:
-incredible fragrance (seriously stop & smell even if you don’t need one)
-thrives in cooler temps
-brings early color to containers & beds
-makes an excellent cut flower

These do fantastically in temps like we’ve been having lately👀✨💕

🌸🌈Azalea & Rhodo Rainbow🌈🌸
WEEKEND SPECIAL (5/1 & 2): 15% off

I know I already did this with irises but with so much coming into color in the greenhouse it’s been a lot of fun to put these into a kind of chromatic order!
These flowering shrubs can really brighten an early spring garden with their bold colors, glossy foliage, and bodacious blooms that stop me in my tracks🌸✨

In order as pictured:
Rhododendron ‘Annie Hall’
Rhododendron ‘Oh My!’
Rhododendron ‘Olga Mezitt’
Azalea ‘Poukhanense compacta’
Rhododendron ‘Dorothy Swift’
Azalea ‘Mandarin Lights’ (part of the super hardy Northern Lights series!!)
Rhododendron ‘Cappastrano’
Rhododendron ‘Annie Hall’… again… but she looks totally different depending on the light!💕

Why we love them in Michigan gardens:
-great spring color while everything else is still just waking up
-many varieties are very cold hardy, so they even do well up north!
-evergreen rhododendron offer year-round structure/landscape appeal
-thrive in partial shade, which can be a tricky spot to fill
-pollinator favorite🐝

Where they grow best:
-dappled shade or morning sun & afternoon shade
-well-drained, acidic soils
-protected from harsh winter winds (think amongst other trees & shrubs or near a building)

Final note: if you’ve struggled with these before it is often a soil or drainage issue, because once they get growing, they really show🌸✨ if you’ve struggled stop in you’ll see that with some of the massive plants we have in-store!

p.s. is there a group or type of flowers you’re dying to see? Let me know in the comments & I’ll scavenge Flowerland!🌻

Open Monday through Saturday 8am to 6pm
We look forward to growing with you!🪴✨🌸⛅️
