Walters evaluated thousands of Hibiscus seedlings and from these many seedlings they selected this large pinkish magenta plant with a red eye and 9” heavily ruffled round flowers and overlapping petals. A stunning landscape specimen this grows 4-5’ in a single season. If you live in areas that have Hibiscus Sawfly a single spray will usually control them. If you don’t want to spray plants will look a bit moth-eaten until they grow new leaves but will survive unharmed. My impression is this and some of the other new cultivars are less bothered by pests than some of the older varieties, I never spray ours in the landscape and they still manage an impressive floral display.____ZONE 5 |

I'm usually not a big lover of hawkweeds but this is a nice one worthy of a place in the catalog. The grey green leaves are irregularly splashed with purple, superglued to your cloths they should make an interesting camo outfit; I digress, they may look better in the garden.____ZONE 5 |

According to Punnett, this is the cream of the crop; indeed most of the hawkweeds are exactly that; weeds (according to the RHS index of garden plants approximately 10000 different species of weeds). I find that number a bit hard to believe, but whatever the species total this is a very choice rock garden specimen that ranks very near the top____ZONE 5 |

Forms yard wide mats of glaucous low foliage; E. R. James has lighter yellow flowers than the species. It has survived for years Punnett’s mix of benign neglect and periodic Roundup spraying of things, which have fallen from favor so it must have some merit (you simply wouldn't believe the stuff he has sprayed out or chopped down).____ZONE 5 |

Evergreen rosettes like a huge Ramonda give rise to 1' stems of blue or pink mint like flowers. This showy plant is unique, indeed they even gave it its own genus and you know how much we like monotypic._____Z 5 |

A double flowered form Dick brought in with quite attractive flowers, it has been very slow and restrained for us, on the other hand I think Punnett sprayed his patch with Roundup.____ZONE 5 |
