Nicotiana ‘Starmaker Deep Lime’

Complementary ‘Deep Lime’ lets companion plants shine

‘Starmaker Deep Lime’ is an interesting color in the garden—it’s a great complementary plant. Rather than stealing the show it enhances a design, especially when used with shades of purple/violet to red/violet on the color wheel. For example, ‘Deep Lime’ would pair nicely with another Nicotiana we grow, ‘Perfume Deep Purple’.

Iridescent scarlet-rose makes this bicolor unique

Here’s a fun new Zinnia with a unique, distinctive bicolor painting of the petals. It’s a vibrant color pattern that stands out in the garden—the scarlet-rose is almost iridescent. Blooms measure 3–4 inches across and have intriguing faces that add to the plant’s up close appeal.

‘Zowie Yellow Flame’ grows about 24–36 inches tall, or about medium height in the garden. It blooms from early summer to frost and makes a great cut flower. This plant also does well in containers, as it is heat and fairly drought tolerant.

We grow ‘Yellow Flame’ in the 6-inch pot.

Dependable Zahara in a hot new color

While we’re on the topic of Zinnia, we have a new color to add to our Zahara collection: Red. We have a complete selection of Zaharas, including seven singles, four doubles, and two mixes.

Zahara offers dependable flower power: big blooms cover bushy foliage all season long. We know we can count on this Zinnia’s tolerance to heat, drought, and disease during high summer here in Cincinnati.

Our Zaharas are available in the 1801 flat.
