Country Cottage

Chosen as one of our favorite Mix it Up™ combinations at CAST ‘23, this elegant mix of heat and drought tolerant varieties makes this combination a perfect peak-season choice. Bidens Yellow Pearl; Helichrysum Variegata and Ptilotus Joey are used here in a 12” container, but this could easily be planted in a 16” container as well.

Patio Bouquet

Rudbeckia Amarillo Gold BeGreen™ Seeds make this bright Mix it Up™ container eye-catching and easy to grow! Incredibly versatile, this combination can be a staple in retail displays of mixed containers, perennials or even cutting gardens! Rudbeckia Amarillo Gold; Scabiosa Fama Blue and Dusty Miller Silverdust are used in a 12” container, but could also be expanded to a large container or small garden bed.

Rio Carnival

This Mix it Up™ shade container that really makes a statement! A luscious combination of Begonia Nonstop Mocca Deep Orange; Fuschia Koralle; and Helichrysum petiolare Gold will brighten up any corner.

Good Gravy

Just one of the 10 SeasonMe! Fusion tasty combinations that can be planted in 6-8” (15-20 cm) pots from just 3-4 liners. For 10-12” (25-30 cm) pots simply double the number of liners. Good Gravy is composed of Oregano Diablo; Rosemary Abraxas and Thyme Mystic Lemon. Perfect for any Italian tomato-based “gravy”, these are also essential flavors in many other recipes.
