Know before you buy
This collection is specifically curated to draw in bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies. By including a variety of bloom shapes and colors, it provides the necessary nectar and pollen sources to support these local populations throughout the season.
While these plants perform best in full sun, they can tolerate partial shade. Keep in mind that flowering density and overall growth height may be slightly reduced if the plants do not receive at least six hours of direct sunlight daily.
The bare root plants should be planted promptly upon arrival to prevent the roots from drying out. The quart-sized plants are already established in soil and can be treated like standard nursery containers, ensuring you water them thoroughly until they are settled in their new spot.
Yes, all four varieties included in this collection—Asclepias, Phlox, Gaillardia, and Nepeta—are perennials. They are hardy in USDA Zones 4 through 8, meaning they are designed to return and bloom again each spring.
The mature heights range from 12 to 24 inches, so you should plan for a garden bed that allows for these varying heights. We recommend grouping the taller Asclepias and Phlox toward the back or center of your display, with the shorter Gaillardia and Nepeta in the foreground.
