The Red Endurascape Verbena from the Southern Living Plant Collection is reserved only for bloom-lovers! You won’t be able to ignore the multitudes of brilliant red bloom umbels. Each stalk produces numerous clusters of petite flowers with ruffled petals. They coat nearly the entire plant, save for a few leaves peeking out here and there. Expect these blooms to begin emerging in spring and continue through fall. Furthermore, this hardy perennial is an unbelievable summer bloom producer. The Red Endurascape Verbena features small spear-shaped leaves with serrated edges, somewhat reminiscent of mint leaves. This foliage is deciduous, meaning that it will die back in winter and return in spring. Additionally, this foliage grows and spreads quickly. Perfect for containers, landscapes, and as accents!

Not just another pretty face! One look at Let’s Dance Can Do hydrangea tells you it’s beautiful – but there’s more to this innovative new hydrangea than that. It has the unique ability to create flower buds along the entire length of the stem instead of only at the top like other big-leaf hydrangeas. That means that even if winter does its worst and kills back a portion of the plant, there will still be flower buds to open in early summer. It’s also what makes Let’s Dance Can Do hardy to USDA zone 4 – not only will it survive in such a cold area, it will actually bloom there! Let’s Dance Can Do also reblooms quicker than others: in other words, you won’t have to wait until fall to see the new flowers. And about those flowers! They are lacecaps, but the size and quantity of the showy sterile florets obscures the tiny fertile florets. Flowers are a luscious strawberry pink in neutral/alkaline soils and a lovely lavender in acidic ones. If you’ve been reluctant to try a big-leaf hydrangea, or been disappointed in others, Let’s Dance Can Do hydrangea is the perfect place to start.
