I have limited quantities of each, will update post as they sell out.

More info:
Shasta daisies add nice height in the garden, do best in full sun, and spread into clumps. Really easy to grow, well-behaved perennial. If you deadhead they will bloom for 4+ weeks.

(sold out) Lily of the Valley is best used in shade to part shade. In sun it spreads really aggressively through underground runners. Great for if you want to fill a pot or a contained space in your yard with the beautiful blooms in the spring. Smells divine!

(sold out) Sweet Autumn Clematis - will cover a fence in a season, I cut mine back to the ground every year. Considered invasive by some, I haven't any issues with it though. Little white flowers smell great in the fall!

(sold out) Mojito Mint - you can't make a real mojito without this mint :) Sweeter than regular mint, excellent in iced tea! Mint loves moisture and spreads readily. I plant it in pots that I sink into the ground.

(sold out) Peppermint - this variety has really nice reddish stems and is very tasty. I make tea with it all the time. Mint loves moisture and spreads readily. I plant it in pots that I sink into the ground.

(sold out) Red Raspberries - Delicious raspberries, what can I say!? Plant in full sun, keep well watered and fed, and they will reward you with delicious berries by the handful.
