Pansies are such a friendly-faced flower that says “hello” to the gardening season without fear of freezing or frost damage. Choose from a rainbow of colors grown right here at Meadow View. They are great performers in containers or flower beds especially during the cool season. Did you know the “faces” on a pansy are called a “blotch”? We also offer varieties with and without faces. A bonus is that pansies are edible and pair well with lettuces. They can also be candied and used to decorate sweets and other dishes. 2017: The Year of the Pansy The Perennial Plant Association has named Asclepias tuberosa the perennial plant of the year for 2017. Also known as butterfly weed, Asclepias features orange/yellow flowers on 1-3’ tall plants from June throughout summer. The flowers are a nectar source for many butterflies and leaves are a food source for monarch butterfly larvae (caterpillars). Butterfly weed is easily grown in average, dry to medium, well-drained soils in full sun. Asclepias are drought tolerant once established and grow well in poor, dry soils. Do your part to support the butterfly population and plant some Asclepias this season. Photo Credit: Andrew Grimm
