About this EZ Scape™

  •  

    Seasonal Progression

    Use this recipe to load your garden with color and deer resistance. Storm Cloud Bluestar and DECADENCE® Baptisia will lead the way in spring with complementing clusters of star-shaped blooms and tall flower spikes. Underplant these two stately perennials with a mixture of Cat’s Pajamas Catmint and PRIMO® Heuchera. The rounded mound of blue from Cat’s Pajamas will be strongest in late spring with rebloom through the rest of the season. PRIMO® Heuchera will be constant foliar color from the beginning of spring, with semi-evergreen leaves adding winter interest.
