WAL-MART PERENNIALS FOR $1.50!!!!

Do I often buy plants at Wal-Mart? No I do not.

Did I tonight? Why, yes I did and if you live in Hanover County, VA or close by, maybe you should check it out too!


There are some nice perennials that will come back year after year for CHEAP...CHEAP.....CHEAP!!!



As you can see by the tag, salvia is a great cut flower and the bees and butterflies love it. Put it in the sun. It looks really beautiful in a cottage garden.


May Night Salvia bloom

There were a few blooms left on a few of the plants, but never let "spent" blooms on a perennial stop you from buying it if the plant is otherwise healthy.

Salvia is even a "cut and come again" plant. Cut the dead blooms and watch them come back with more amazing color!


And look at this veronica, waterwise and easy to grow. The pic on the tag isn't great so see below.

The bees pick this as a favorite in my yard. You're not afraid of bees, right? Don't bee (ha) beecause (ha again) they are very important pollinators!!



Veronica bloom

Nothing is sweeter than a mass planting of shasta daisies. So lovely!

The above three plants are for sun, but they have some astibles and heucheras for the shade. An astible for $1.50! Wow!

Heuchera or Coral Bells

Astilbe

Like I said before, don't let the brown deter you from getting a great deal....it's worth $1.50 to wait for the bloom until next spring. Especially astibles!



Just wanted to share a great deal....but leave some for me! I'm going back to get more tomorrow!


PERENNIALS
FIRST YEAR THEY SLEEP
