A modern, garden-friendly cleome: Señorita Rosalita® is thornless, mostly sterile (so it won’t self-seed aggressively), and self-cleaning. It gives height and airy texture with lavender-pink blooms that draw pollinators — all without the maintenance headaches of older cleome varieties. Great for vertical accents and pollinator pockets. 

‘Chinook’ is a bold foliage performer with large, heart-shaped leaves that blend salmon-pink centers and fresh green edges.

This astilbe stands out for its almost-black, deep-chocolate foliage that creates dramatic contrast in shady beds.

Rise Up® Lilac Days is a unique mini-climbing rose with a rare lilac-blue flower color and a powerful, heady fragrance. It’s versatile (can be grown as a compact climber or trained as a shrub), offers repeat blooming, and brings classic rose scent and vertical interest without the space of full climbers.

Let’s Dance® Lovable is a dependable reblooming bigleaf hydrangea that flowers on old and new wood. Expect abundant mophead blooms whose color can shift with soil pH — pink to blue — making it a crowd-pleasing, versatile addition to foundation plantings, containers, and mixed borders.

An improved panicle hydrangea, Limelight Prime® offers stronger stems, earlier color, and the same signature lime-to-pink panicles that make Limelight so popular. It’s an excellent specimen or hedge plant that provides dependable cut-flower quality and multi-season interest.
