(Celeriac)
Little known in the United States, celeriac is grown for its rather homely, bulbous, edible "roots". Thought to have originated in northern Europe, it is a variety of celery (Apium graveolens), a widely cultivated biennial native to Europe, Southwest Asia, and North Africa. Celeriac is also known as celery root or knob celery.
Protruding from the soil like a knobby, partially buried baseball, the edible "root" gives rise to long fleshy stalks bearing deep green, incised, compound...
(Aplectrum)
Intrigue, murder and thievery have followed the orchid; world explorations have been launched and fortunes won all in the pursuit of these exotic flowers. Since the 19th century, when tropical orchids were first introduced to Europe, orchids have inspired human desire and greed because of their rarity, collectability and indescribable beauty.
Measured in geologic time Orchidaceae was once thought to be a newer family but recent research has shown it is much older. One of the largest plant families,...

(Baby Sun Rose, Heartleaf Ice Plant)
The small, heart-shaped leaves of baby sun rose contrast with its magenta-red, daisy-like flowers. This tender, succulent, creeping evergreen perennial is native to southern Africa.
The fleshy leaves are bright green, heart-shaped, and covered in very tiny hairs, and thus feel felt-like. The flowers, with many string-like petals surrounding a small, yellow-white eye, are the size of a large thumbnail and open only when the sun is shining. They are a rich magenta-red and attract butterflies.

(Cameo Mix Columbine, Columbine)
Members of the Cameo Series are a collection of super dwarf fan columbines that bloom for a longer period than most. They also boast larger flowers and more vigorous plants.
Fan columbine is a small clump-forming alpine that’s well adapted to partial sun. It is a Japanese native that forms an attractive small mound of blue-green foliage. The delicate leaves are three-parted with scalloped edges. Despite its small size it offers a big floral show, especially those in the Cameo Series.

(Clementine Blue Columbine, Columbine)
A compact habit and densely packed double flowers characterize members of the Clementine Series. In early to late spring neat, dwarf plants put forth masses of double, spurred blooms that may be red, white, purple, violet-blue, pink or salmon, depending on the cultivar.
These columbine do best in sites with partial sun and fertile, well drained soil. They are attractive to bees, butterflies and hummingbirds and work well along the edges of mixed borders or in spring containers.
