perennials
Distinctive and instantly recognized, these triangular blue flowers against golden foliage are considered a prairie wildflower. Vigorous growing and long blooming, although the blossoms do not last long there are many of them on each plant. Protect from the scorching afternoon sun. Try this: Break the tip off a spiderwort leaf and wait for a drop of sap to appear, then touch it with your fingertip and notice how far you can stretch a thread of sap. This resemblance to a spider's silk may explain where its name came from. Whether you do this or not, this plant makes a strong, deep purple presence in a natural garden area. Just read about King Charles I, he was the first to have them and they still flourish in English gardens.

It's a native of Europe (did you guess that?). This large, dark green evergreen tree has the traditional pyramidal shape plus gracefully weeping branches which are most evident at maturity. Can be used as a specimen or as a windbreak. The foliage "hangs down" on the large trees. How do you know if you're looking at a Norway Spruce? Remove one needle, it should be about 1 inch long and rotate easily between the thumb and forefinger. If it does not rotate and has 2 flat sides it is a fir tree.
