Large Hosta Variety With Lavender Blooms and Slug-Resistance Add the Sum and Substance Hosta to your garden for a larger variety that truly makes a statement! This plant even thrives in full sunlight, which most Hosta plants don't, so you can display it anywhere in your yard. This plant also shifts its leaf color depending on how much sunlight it gets. Throughout the season, it can shift from light green to chartreuse and even gold. Plus, these glossy leaves are resistant to slugs and can grow in city environments, making them a must for any urban space. In summer, its lavender flowers bloom against shades of green, giving it even more color. For one of the largest and most stunning Hostas available, you'll want to add the Sum and Substance Hosta to your space. Buy yours today! Planting & Care 1. Planting: Hostas need high-filtered or dappled sunlight for healthy growth. They can tolerate morning sun but not hot afternoon sun. They thrive in shady, woodland settings and prefer full sunlight to partial shade (4-6 hours daily). Plant them 4-5 feet apart to accommodate their spread. 2. Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. Hostas grow best in consistently moist, well-drained, highly organic soils with a pH between 5.5 and 7.5. Sandy loam is preferable to clay because it offers more aeration for the roots. 3. Fertilizing: In cold regions, mulch hostas to prevent them from being pushed out of the ground. Mulch retains moisture but also provides a hiding place for slugs. Look for holes in the leaves to check for slug activity. Using slug bait in early spring can help reduce the slug population. After a few years, you can remove the mulch to solve the slug problem. Also, clear hosta foliage from the garden in early winter to eliminate slug eggs and other leaf-eating insects.

Cold Hardy Ground Cover With Delicious Berries Lingonberries are favored all over the world for their aesthetic appeal as a beautiful ground cover plant perfect for framing gardens. Also, the berries are delectable and sweet, yet tart. Often described as the American Cranberry’s sweeter and juicier cousin, Lingonberries have a rich berry flavor similar to raspberries and cranberries with an irresistible sour zing. In other countries Lingonberries greatly outweigh the use of cranberries during traditional holiday meals. They’re extremely popular to use in jams, muffins and scones, because people can’t get enough of their unique berry flavor. By snacking on them fresh or adding them to cereal or yogurt you’ll be adding an irresistible sweet and sour berry flavor to your favorite recipes, as well as tons of nutrients. Each Lingonberry is packed with Vitamin A, Vitamin C, B vitamins, Calcium, Potassium and more to give your immune system a boost, and to fill you with energy. A handful of berries are all it takes to fill your favorite recipes with flavor and nutrition. You will never run out of Lingonberries because they have two harvests, one in the midsummer and a second in the early fall. Simply step outside and pick the vibrant red berries from your attractive ground cover plant Ice, snow, poor soil, droughts and more can’t stop the tough and low maintenance Lingonberry from pumping out fruit and beauty. It will grow almost anywhere in the country and can survive freezing temperatures down to -40 degrees. By only growing about 1 to 2 feet tall, and 1 to 2 feet wide Lingonberries are perfect for framing porches and flowerbeds. They accent your yard without taking over. Their dark glossy leaves serve as a lush backdrop for brightly colored flowers to pop against. Lingonberries even have vibrant whitish-pink bell shaped blossoms that pop against their dark foliage. Once you see the beautiful flowers you will be filled with awe from their beauty, and excitement because soon bright red berries will be on their way. Planting & Care Lingonberries (Vaccinium vitis-idaea) are related to the blueberry and cranberry family. They're typically grown in cooler, northern climates and can thrive in coastal areas with mild summers. These fantastic, edible, evergreen ground-covers produce delicious cranberry-like fruit great for sauces, jellies and cooking. Beloved by Scandinavians, lingonberries are attractive, easy to grow plants with bright red berries equal to the size of a small blueberry. Lingonberry bushes are self pollinating but you will have a far better fruit yield by having them planted in pairs. Choosing a location: Although lingonberries do well in partial shade, try to plant them in a full sun location with a well draining soil. Lingonberries can withstand arctic temperatures but in very severe climates, they can be covered with peat or sawdust in the winter. They do not care for an alkaline soil so try to do a soil test and be sure that it's a pH of 5.8 or lower. USDA Zones 3-8 are the optimal lingonberry growing locations, but these plants can be potted as well. Planting Directions (in ground): One of the best times to plant a new lingonberry is right after the spring cold has passed and the soil has sufficiently dried. 1) Make your hole twice the width of the root ball and just as deep in a nice, sunny location.2) Amend compost into the soil for a boost in nutrients and to improve the drainage of the spot.3) Leave a couple inches of the compost on the soil's surface. Using a gardening fork (or tiller), mix it into the soil.4) Water the planting site thoroughly to settle the soil and then apply 2-3 inches of mulch to conserve moisture. Planting directions (potted):1) Select a potting soil that has a high content of peat moss. Lingonberries love a pH of about 5.0 for their soil. The high content of peat moss will be perfect for them.2) Use a 3 inch layer of sawdust as mulch to help conserve moisture. These prefer a constantly moist soil so be sure to water frequently.3) Put next to a South facing window for a full sun exposure, they do best in full sun.4) Container grown lingonberries should produce twice yearly. Spring will provide a small fruit yield and there should be a larger yield in the summer season. Watering: Avoid letting the soil dry completely between waterings. A consistent watering schedule will produce the best results for the bush regardless of the season. For the first year you will want to water with just under an inch of water per week (1 inch of rainfall is equal to about one gallon of water). After the berry bush gets settled/established, it will only require about a half inch (1/2 gallon) of water per week. Consistency is KEY to the best results with your lingonberry bush.*Tip* Adding mulch around the base of the bush helps conserve moisture as well as combat the lingonberries biggest enemy, competing weeds. Pruning: Lingonberry bushes are very easy to maintain in terms for pruning. For the first few years the bush will require little to no attention other than the removal of dried out, dead limbs. Cut back about 6-8 vigorous canes around mid June to late July after the bush begins bearing regularly. Fertilizing: Once the plants are in the ground, they will not require much fertilizing. Too much nitrogen boosts growth in the late fall, followed by plant dieback, leaving you a reduced crop. If the plants are growing several inches of new growth each year, avoid fertilizing them. If they lack growth, feed them with a low nitrogen organic fertilizer such as a 5-10-10 formula or compost. Potted berry bushes will require little to no fertilizing. Harvesting: Color is what will best determine the time for harvesting the lingonberries. Unripened fruit will have a very bitter taste to them. The ripened berries will have an acidic, yet tart taste, quite similar to a cranberry. The fruit will last roughly three weeks if kept refrigerated. It can also be dried, frozen or canned.

Planting: Start by choosing the right location for your Crocodile Fern: an east or north-facing window is ideal since it grows best in filtered or indirect light.

Watering: Ferns love humidity, and it’s easy to provide a humid environment by placing your plant in a bathroom, kitchen or near a humidifier. Your fern also can be placed in other spaces, but it’s important to mist at least twice weekly. If you’re not sure when to mist, simply check the soil down to around two inches. If the soil is dry, it’s time to mist your plant. In addition, water when the soil is dry 2 inches down. 3. Fertilizing: During the growing season from April to September, fertilize your Crocodile Fern once a month using house plant-specialized or a 10-10-10 formula.

Planting: Full to partial sun (4 to 6 hours of sun) and well-drained soil ensure your tree will thrive. To plant, dig your hole shallower than the root ball and at least twice the width. After the hole is finished, loosen the soil in the planting hole so the roots can break through easily. Then, place your tree, backfill the soil and water to settle the roots. 2. Watering: Water about once weekly. However, if you get around an inch of rainfall every 10 days or so during the growing season, additional watering should be unnecessary. If you’re not sure how much water the tree needs, check the soil about 2 or 3 inches down - if it's dry, it's time to water. 3. Fertilizer: If you’re planting during the fall season, wait until the spring to use fertilizer. With nutrient-rich soil, fertilizer is unnecessary until your tree begins bearing fruit. After fruiting starts, an application of high-nitrogen fertilizer is recommended. 4. Pruning: Prune each year during the dormant season. If you’re located in growing zones 6 or farther north, wait to prune your tree until the late winter. When you do prune, make sure you’re pruning in an 'open center' shape, which keeps the tree’s canopy open for light purposes.

Garnish your food or add a “boba” alternative to your desserts with this unique fruit. Order your very own Red Finger Lime Bush today! Planting & Care 1. Planting: Choose a location where your bush is going to get plenty of sunlight (6 to 8 hours per day is best). They can tolerate some shade but thrive in full sun. Potted plants do enjoy a daily misting for humidity but placing a tray with rocks filled with water under the plant will feed humidity to the bush as the water evaporates. If your winter temperatures drop consistently below 40 degrees, plant your bush in a container that can easily be brought outside in the summer months and inside in the winter. A planter with built-in casters is a good choice so it can easily be moved. Choose a pot slightly larger than what it was shipped in that has plenty of holes in the bottom to allow for drainage. Be sure to plant in well-draining potting soil, preferably recommended for acid-loving citrus plants. Then, fill your pot with soil, place your bush, and backfill the rest of the soil. Finally, water to settle the roots. 2. Watering: After watering, generally about once or twice weekly, allow the top 2 to 3 inches of the soil to dry out completely before watering again. Mulching can help retain the soil moisture and also combat competing grasses/weeds. When you water, stop once you see it escaping the drainage holes at the base of the pot. 3. Fertilizing: Feed your bush during the warmer spring and summer seasons with a citrus specific fertilizer once every six weeks, such as the one included in our Citrus Care Kit. During the fall and winter, ease back to fertilizing once every 2 to 3 months. Once the bush has matured a bit and has got a few years on it, you can skip the cold season fertilization. Make sure to follow the application instructions written on the fertilizer bag. 4. Pruning: Make 45-degree angle cuts to remove dead or crossing limbs and also to thin out the bush to allow more light to flow between the branches. After the bush fruits, remove any dead wood and ventilate the center of the bush, and remove suckers as they grow from the base. 5. Pollination: Red Finger Limes are self-fertile. You will get fruit with only one plant. However, adding an additional Red Finger Lime will drastically increase the size of your crop.

Water the shrub deeply during long, dry spells. 3. Fertilizing: If planted in good quality soil, butterfly bushes rarely need fertilizer.

If you live in a warmer state, plant your Hydrangea in a place that will get some afternoon shade. Make sure your soil is moist and well-drained. Amend the soil with some compost and 15-30-15 fertilizer. Plant in a hole big enough to give the root ball some room to grow. Place a layer of mulch around the edge of the trunk, covering the ground to the edge of the canopy. 2. Watering: Water your Hydrangea weekly for the first 6 months. After this time, you will only need to water your plant when you get less than 1" of rain during the week. The mulch should keep the soil moist. Never let your soil dry out completely. It may take some time to see blooms on your plant, but once you do, they will multiply rapidly. 3. Fertilizing: You can fertilize the plant every spring with a bloom encouraging fertilizer. Fertilizing too much will cause the tree to produce more leaves and fewer blooms, so be careful to only add a little bit each year. 4. Pruning: You do not need to prune your Vanilla Strawberry™ Hydrangea, but you can if you like. Only prune in late winter or early spring after the worst frost is over. You can prune to the shape you desire.

The unique Abiu Fruit has vibrant yellow skin on the outside with clear, translucent flesh on the inside. The soft flesh that melts in your mouth contains a sweet juicy flavor similar to crème caramel. Its rich flavor satisfies sweet cravings and provides refreshing relief during hot summer days.

However, Abiu fruit is also used for making ice cream, adding to yogurt and smoothies, and are often included with breakfast meals.

Abiu trees have long, slender green leaves that add vibrant color to liven up the room.

Planting & Care The Abiu tree is a tropical fruit tree grown commonly in Hawaii and native to the Amazon region of pf-northwest Brazil. The tree has a rounded crown with oval shaped leaves and can reach 25 to 30 feet tall. The pulp has a smooth, clear, jelly-like texture, with a sweet caramel flavor. The seeds are easily removed so the pulp can be simply scooped out and enjoyed with a spoon. When ripened, the fruit is a pale yellow color on the bottom with a slight gradient to the green top and a soft leathery texture. Choosing a location: Abiu Trees can be grown in all 50 states simply by keeping them potted but are most commonly grown outdoors in tropical areas. Bring them indoors before temperatures drop below 40 degrees and provide lots of sunlight. Most tropicals like the Abiu Tree are very fast growing and easier to maintain over domestic fruit trees. Note: This product grows best in well-draining soil. When you receive your plant, you may notice small, white beads or rocks in the soil - this medium is added to increase drainage and keep your plant happy and healthy! Planting directions (in ground): A well draining soil is of primary importance as Abiu Tree’s roots do not like to be wet and will rot if allowed to sit in standing water for extended periods. Abiu Trees are fast growing and require space to stretch out, so plant at least 10 feet from other trees or shrubs. 1) Abiu trees love lots of sun so try to dig your hole in an area that will receive 10-12 hours of bright sun for the best fruiting results. Partial sun will still work but these are tropical trees so think "hot and humid" to keep them happy and healthy.2) Make the hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. You may want to test the drainage of the spot by filling a 1 foot wide by 1 foot deep hole and filling it with water. If the water has not fully drained after one hour, you may need to amend the soil a bit.3) A mixture of amended soil containing sand and perlite is highly recommended for proper drainage.4) Back fill your hole while gently tamping down the soil as you go along to prevent any air pockets.5) Water generously when you're done and spread a good layer of mulch around the tree. Avoid the mulch being right next to the trunk to avoid any rot or fungus from forming. Planting directions (potted): Abiu Trees can be grown very well in containers. Be sure to provide an adequate sized pot to start with for good root development. 1) Select a pot 18-24 plus inches in diameter and 20 plus inches in height, with adequate drainage holes.2) A mixture of potting soil, compost and a little fertilizer will make up the best potting medium for the tree.3) A bright and sunny solarium or window location with a more southern exposure is best for growth and fruit production. Watering: Good drainage is essential, abiu trees will not tolerate waterlogging. Depending on light conditions, location and foliage, watering may be required weekly or daily. Be sure to not over water, mucky soil will cause decay and rot which will ultimately kill the tree. During the warmer seasons the tree may need to be watered on a daily basis but mulching around the tree will help the soil retain moisture. Outdoor mulch is too heavy to use on an indoor, potted tree. Try to use something like aged mulch or stone to cover the top 1 inch of the soil surface and preserve moisture. Pruning: Young trees need to be trimmed and trained into 3-5 main scaffold limbs over the first 2-3 years. Always remove dead, upright or poorly placed limbs. Sterilize your cutting tool using a household rubbing alcohol to ensure a healthy cut. Always trim at a 45 degree angle. Fertilizing: Fertilize your abiu tree once every two months in the first year. Start out using 1/4 lb of fertilizer and gradually increase to 1 lb. For the next year you will only need to apply additional fertilizer 3-4 times yearly. Do not exceed more than 20 lbs worth of fertilizer in a single year. The most commonly used (recommended) fertilizer is a 6-6-6 formula. Fruit production: Abiu may have several flowering periods a year, with potential for both flowers and fruit on the tree at one time. The fruit development is fairly quick! You will notice a marble sized fruit within a few days after the flower drop. These quickly grow into larger fruit that is good to pick once the skin turns bright yellow. Be sure to let it sit on your kitchen counter for a day or two after picking to let it fully ripen.
