Spring 2011 Louisiana Super Plants

“Frostproof Gardenia”

This evergreen shrub produces fragrant, double,

velvety-white flowers heavily in May and sporadically

through the summer. Growing 5 feet tall by 4 feet wide, it

fits well in an area where a smaller shrub is needed. The

leaves provide an attractive medium to fine texture to this

prolific blooming gardenia.

“Butterfly Pentas”

Clusters of five-petaled flowers are rich with nectar

and highly attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds. An

excellent choice for flower beds or containers with continuous blooms from spring until frost.

“Serena Angelonia”

This outstanding summer bedding plant can be relied upon for dependable garden performance through the hottest summer weather. Masses of flower spikes cover the plants from spring until frost. The four soft colors Serena Purple, Serena Lavender, Serena Lavender Pink and Serena White blend together beautifully. This care-free continuous bloomer is

well-suited to landscapes, gardens and mixed containers.

“Shoal Creek Vitex”

If you want a tough, yet gorgeous, shrub or small tree that is a butterfly/bee/hummingbird magnet, then Vitex Shoal Creek is a must for your garden. The 12-inch, fragrant flower spikes of deep lavender blue provide a wonderful addition to summer landscape without the work involved with bedding plants. The flowers appear in May/June with a second flush of flowers in August. This versatile plant can be trained as a large shrub or small multi-trunked tree about 10 to15 feet tall and wide.

Redbor Kale –

Louisiana Super Plant Fall 2011

Redbor kale is an incredible, multiuse annual for the cool-season flower or vegetable garden. It is perfectly edible and can be eaten raw in salads or cooked like mustard greens.

However, Redbor kale's attractive appearance makes it popular to use in flowerbeds. Use this edible kale for an impressive and prominent display in your cool-season garden. Plant in well-prepared, sunny beds anytime from October through February.

Redbor kale produces striking dark red-purple, finely curled foliage on plants that will eventually grow to be about 30 inches tall by early summer. Plants stay attractive until May, when they should be replaced with summer bedding plants.

Redbor Kale is a vigorous grower with good cold tolerance. It is outstanding in a tall border or as a background planting or anywhere you want to add rich color and interesting texture.

Growing Information:

· Cool-season annual

· Full sun

· Grows 30” tall by 12-16” wide

· Space 12-16” apart

Plant October through February
