Nashville Lawn and Garden Show – The Plants I Bought

Of course I couldn’t go to the garden show and come home empty handed.

HelleborusHelleborusMany people tried and failed, to talk John into selling a Helleborus “Spring Promise” out of the display garden. I guess they are just not as persuasive as Blue and I. Now that the show is over, I’m sure we are released from our vow of silence. There would have been nothing left of the display if word had gotten out. So we agreed that immediately after the sale, we would slip out the side door, and avoid eye contact with anyone drooling over it.

Cryptomeria japonicaBlue and I both bought these Cryptomeria japonica ‘Tansu.’ She is going to plant hers in the garden where it will grow to be 12”-18” tall. I think mine wants to be a bonsai. He has that big sticky-outy-thingy. That’s going to be my starting point. I’ve never done it before, so I need to check out some books from the library, or better yet go to a bonsai workshop. Maybe I could twist some garden club arms, and have a program on bonsai next year.

The 2 that match are ‘Chocolate Ball.’ The tag describes them as having “dark reddish brown foliage.” Have they seen the plants? Looks green to me; maybe some reddish brown color on the stems, but that’s it. The tag also says it will have “masses of tiny, star-like yellow flowers” in “late summer to mid fall.” Since I already know the tag is a liar, I’m a little skeptical. The other sedum is called Elizabeth.

RosemaryThe last plant I bought at the show is this rosemary ‘Blue Spires’. It has a very columnar growth habit (that’s plant lingo for tall and skinny). I could have bought a large 4 foot tall by 1 foot wide plant for $100 more, but I’d rather save the money and grow it myself.
