Perennials
Our perennial selection is full of all your favorite varieties. I introduce new varieties every year.
We select and grow our own perennials. A new product we will be selling this spring is Repellex. It is a granule that you sprinkle around your favorite perennials which have been prone to Deer and Rabbit ravages. It is absorbed by the plant and makes the plant taste like hot peppers. There is a lag before the plant can absorb the product so a spray repellant is necessary early in the season.
