Packed for 2023/24. These are native perennial seeds from my own garden or ethically collected from the wild and all are grown without chemicals. All are harvested and stored by me. I am a professional horticulturist specializing in native plants for the home garden. What I am sharing are some of my tried and true favorites for you or a gift for a gardener and free shipping!
Perennial seed germination is recommended for people with some advanced seed sowing experience.
Lyreleaf sage is a fun and easy plant to grow. Beautiful purple foliage, but leaf color may range from more green to more purple. The large basal leaves persist through the winter. It will remind you of ajuga. Pretty spires of white to light pink to light blue flowers in May (in 7a). The shape of the flower is very welcoming to bees. This is a tough plant. Mine is at the edge of the driveway; hot, dry, and frequently run over. Seeds itself readily.
