This is a 7 inch bloom that is often pinched and twisted, an unusual form. It is warm red-orange with a darker band and 17 buds on 3 branches.
The 31 inch plant is sturdy and an early mid season blooming, dormant tetraploid.
This plant has large fans so an order will be two fans rather than my normal three.

An unusual form that has wide spatulate and crispate petals that can curve back and twist slightly. These 7.5 inch lavender pink blooms have a wide, blended, light yellow star burst eye zone and throat and the yellow cream extends up the mid ribs and down along the edges. The blooms are coming in the mid to late season and are fragrant and diamond dusted.
A 32 inch tall dormant diploid that also reblooms.

The beauty of this color is difficult to capture both on film and with words. I guess the name describes it; chestnut brown with a standout Burgundy eye zone and a glowing golden throat and stamens. The flowers are 5.5 inches, round and ruffled. It is also fragrant and blooms into the night.
The plant is a dormant tetraploid and is a sturdy, well branched 30 inches tall.

This is one of my favorites.The silvery lavender spiders seem to curl into the most interesting forms. The spider ratio is 4.40:1. The petals are defiantly darker than the sepals, and the edges and mid ribs are cream colored with varying degrees of ruffling and a few teeth. There is also a darker blended halo and a green throat.
A dormant diploid, It is taller for me than the 25 inches that it is supposed to be, but the sturdy scapes hold up tons of 7.5 inch flowers.

This 36 inch tall mid season bloomer is old and orange but it is a power house of bloom, and a fast grower. It is a sturdy plant with extended bloom; a vigorous dormant diploid.
The 5 inch flower is golden orange with a reddish pattern in the throat. The petals are also interesting in that they are thin, but just a little wide to be a spider and pointy with a little pie crust edge.

This sturdy dormant tetraploid is a fast grower and has beautiful foliage growing to about 2 feet tall.
The flowers also have heavy substance and are abundant and held above the foliage but not too tall. This is why they are considered “extended bloom” which means the flowers last all night and into the next day. The 5.5 inch blooms are golden yellow with a red picotee edge and eye zone and a green throat. Perfect form; round with a little pie crust edge, rounds out the package. This award winning mid season bloomer is a dormant tetraploid.
This plant has large fans so an order will be two fans rather than my normal three.

From the Ranunculaceae or buttercup family this European native is hardy to zone 3 but shouldn’t be planted south of zone 6.
It is about 2 feet tall but it will be taller in shade and forms nice mounded clumps from which the long stems arise. They sport 2 inch yellow flowers in May to July, but will often rebloom in fall if they like their spot. The flowers start out globe shaped (hence the name) and then open to a cup shape with cool bright yellow stamens popping out.
They defiantly like a rich moist soil but will do fine in a garden setting. They like cool weather rather than hot and dry and will do well in sun (morning is better) to part shade. Cut them back in mid summer when the foliage starts to spot and new fresh foliage will grow.
They are rabbit and dear tolerant so you can plant these if your hostas are getting eaten and they are nice with ferns and astilbe.

This 3 foot tall spider has stems strong enough to hold up the large bunch of buds and 6.5 inch flowers that it produces. The bright yellow spiders have a cranberry blending to purple, star shaped eye zone and just a shadow of the eye zone on the lower petals.
Dormant Diploid.

This really cute, cream colored to butter yellow miniature has a thin, well defined wine colored eye and a green throat. Every flower is perfectly round with ruffled, recurved petals. And check her out in the sun or moon light to see beautiful diamond dusting.
The plant is 22 inches tall with lots of 3 inch blooms over a long period. The bud count is 40 on 5 branches. She starts early and is a dormant tetraploid which is unusual for one so small.

A beauty, with tall 3-4 foot scapes, although you can get multiple scapes of different heights with good bud set. It blooms early mid-season and is a dormant diploid.
The scarlet flowers have a large chartreuse throat that blends outward to a narrow pinkish eye zone. There are white rays on the mid ribs that extend about half way out on the petals, and also a white picotee edge that reaches half way out the petals.
