Summer flower orders are coming in and they are so beautiful! Our design team have really figured out what material will work best in the wide variety of gardens that we plant. They also have developed relationships with some of the best local growers.
Coleus come in a wide array of color and leaf shapes. |

When considering what to plant at this time of year, it is easy to get overwhelmed by all the options. While blooms rule, foliage plants can add a lot of flavor too. For example, the showiness of impatiens or begonias may be accentuated and actually enhanced by a break of coleus or caladium.
Think about contrasted pairings for depth and interest |
