Canary Brillants- A color so unique it is a must have for any gardener. It starts off as an apricot-beige color and then softens to yellow as it opens and ages. Many Itoh peonies are not great cut flowers but this is an exception as it does do well in arrangements and the color is so rare, florists have a field day with them! Check out all of our peonies - Peonies (fireflyfarmandmercantile.com) Itoh Peonies are crossed with herbaceous (lactiflora) and tree peonies, resulting in plants that can provide 50 plus blossoms on shorter stems that do not require staking. They bloom after herbaceous peonies and allow a few more weeks of blooms in your garden of the peony family, thus increasing their appeal. It is possible to get 8 weeks of peony blooms by seelcting cultivars and peony types that are different. 8-10" Double to Semi-double apriot to yellow blossoms 26" - 28" tall Itoh peonies bloom after lactiflora peonies Peonies are safe from deer and rabbits. USDA Zones 3-8 Strongly fragrant Botanical Name: Itoh Paeonia Origin:R.F. Anderson, 1999 Wisconsin 3-5 Eye Rootstock- We try to only provide the largest rootstock for peonies for stronger roots that lead to better blooms. 2-3 eye roostock is the most common size offered and occassionally it is what we have to use, but 3-5 eyes per root is our goal. Eyes are the buds of the leaves and stems that will grow this season for you. Shipping - Ships first two weeks of May- All peonies are packed in spagnum moss or other media to ensure they make it to your garden in pristine condition. We do adjust for shipping charges as every year is slighly different in weights and sizes. We also ship the last 2 weeks of September as well. Planting Care - Bare roots should be kept cool and in the dark until ready to plant. Peonies do not like to be planted deep and eyes should be kept no deeper than 1" below the soil surface. When possible, it is a great idea to mound your peonies above your existing garden grade to accommodate mulch. Plant no deeper than 1-2". The roots will quickly develop and anchor into the ground. Full Sun or Partial Sun is best Prefers loamy soil, can be planted in sandy or clay soils with compost amendments Give them room to grow as they don't like to be moved once established Some blooms may occur first year when planting in the spring, fall planted peonies will yield spring blooms most of the time

Renee's Garden -My custom blend offers you gorgeous, florist-quality zinnias in lovely shades that make color coordinated bouquets as you pick them. These densely petaled, fully double flowers in deep lavender, carmine-rose, soft pink, and white are beautiful both in the garden and cut for flower arrangements. The branched 3 to 3 1/2 foot tall plants have outstanding garden performance and stand up well to both summer rain and heat, yielding armfuls of long-stemmed flowers all season. Characteristics: Heirloom Mix Butterfly & Hummingbird favorites Pollinators & Beneficials Annual Summer/fall bloom Frost tender 1g, ~130 Seeds Instructions - To start in the garden, sow seeds in well-worked soil in full sun when the danger of frost is past and the weather is warm and above 50°F (10°C) both day and night. Space seeds 3 inches apart in rows 12 inches apart, cover about 1/2 inch deep, and gently firm the soil. Keep soil evenly moist while awaiting germination. To start early indoors, four weeks before the last frost date, sow seeds 1/2 inch deep and 3 inches apart in a container of seed starting mix. Keep warm and moist and provide a strong light source until seedlings are ready to plant outside when temperatures rise above 50°F (10°C) day and night. Space seedlings 12 inches apart when large enough to handle to give plants room to mature and provide good air circulation. Zinnias grow readily in ordinary garden soil in full sun. For large and abundant flowers, thin before seedlings get crowded; adequate spacing and regular, even watering help keep zinnias productive and discourage mildew. Pick when flower blossoms first open and petals are tight for the longest vase life. Cut long stems well back into the plant to keep plants branching low and producing the best blooms for summer-long bouquets. Plant in April-June Full sun Plant 1/2" deep Space seeds 2-3" apart Days to germinate: 5-10 days Mature Height: 3-3.5 feet Firefly Farm & Mercantile may substitute suppliers due to availability.

County Fair Blend Zinnias Flower, Organic

Renee's Garden - This beloved, old-fashioned zinnia got its name because the sturdy, vigorous plants bear continuously for months, providing armfuls of sweet, candy-bright flowers to enjoy both indoors and out. Cut and Come Again blooms in a wonderful color range that includes cream, salmon, rose pink, scarlet, butter yellow, magenta, crimson and cheerful orange. The vibrant, many-petaled 2 to 3-inch blooms come in double, single, and semi-double flower forms with centers that open into a circle of golden stars. Characteristics: Heirloom Butterfly & Hummingbird favorites Pollinators & Beneficials Annual Summer/fall bloom Frost tender Instructions - To start in the garden, sow seeds in well-worked soil in full sun when the danger of frost is past and the weather is warm and above 50°F (10°C) both day and night. Space seeds 3 inches apart in rows 12 inches apart, cover about 1/2 inch deep, and gently firm the soil. Keep soil evenly moist while awaiting germination. To start early indoors, four weeks before the last frost date, sow seeds 1/2 inch deep and 3 inches apart in a container of seed starting mix. Keep warm and moist and provide a strong light source until seedlings are ready to plant outside when temperatures rise above 50°F (10°C) day and night. Space seedlings 12 inches apart when large enough to handle to give plants room to mature and provide good air circulation. Zinnias grow readily in ordinary garden soil in full sun. For large and abundant flowers, thin before seedlings get crowded; adequate spacing and regular, even watering help keep zinnias productive and discourage mildew. Pick when flower blossoms first open and petals are tight for the longest vase life. Cut long stems well back into the plant to keep plants branching low and producing the best blooms for summer-long bouquets. Plant in April-June Full sun Plant 1/2" deep Space seeds 2-3" apart Days to germinate: 5-10 days Mature Height: 3-3.5 feet Firefly Farm & Mercantile may substitute suppliers due to availability.
