Chinese Wisteria

Common name:Chinese Wisteria
Botanical name:Wisteria sinensis 'Cooke's Special'

While the sinensis is similar to the floribunda, it bears more rounded, full clusters of strongly fragrant flowers which open more or less all at once. There are usually 13-15 leaflets per leaf, and they require full sun and average to little watering. Cooke's Special has a brilliant blue flower.-Monterey Bay Nursery

Snow-In-Summer

Common name:Snow-In-Summer
Botanical name:Cerastium tomentosum

Masses of snow white flowers highlight this plant during the early summer season.

Dwarf Orange Bulbine

Common name:Dwarf Orange Bulbine
Botanical name:Bulbine frutescens 'Hallmark'

This beautiful succulent grows to about 1' tall by 1-2' wide. Orange flowers with fluffy yellow centers bloom almost all year long. Flowers are on tall spikes above foliage. Plants stay evergreen but will freeze to the ground in the event of serious frost. Frost-damaged plants will regrow in spring.

Rosemary

Common name:Rosemary
Botanical name:Rosmarinus officinalis

Rosemary is hardy in full sun areas where winter temperatures do not drop below 10 degrees F. They can be grown in a clay pot with well-drained, porous soil in bright indoor light, and will also flourish on the backporch in spring, summer and fall. Its beautiful, slowly trailing stems and shiny slender leaves are perfect for showing off the small light blue flowers that blossom in the summer. -Holland WIldflower Farm
