Blue Scaevola is one of my favorite plants. Not only is it Deer resistant but it out performs all other plants in the heat of summer. Another great Blue is Evolvulus. This heat loving plant never stops blooming. Wave Petunias continue to be the rage. Give them a sunny, airy location without overhead watering and they will provide you with color all summer long. The new colors are blue and white. They are one of the best plants in containers, whiskey barrels, or window boxes. Don't forget the Tidal Wave petunias. We recommend 6" spacing in ground beds, allowing them to mound up to a 3-foot height that provides you with a berm of color. They provide a dramatic visual experience when they are in full bloom. Begonia 'Red Dragon Wing': I keep pushing this plant, it is one of my very favorites. I plant it in large containers by my pool and it is the talk of everybody passing by. It is not a short plant -- reaching a height of 18 to 20 inches. It has shiny green leaves and does well in sun or shade. The large red or pink flowers give a show of color that is hard to beat. They do well in large containers or planted in the ground. Euphorbia 'Diamond Frost' is a winner. A multitude of small white flowers give a stunning display of color all summer long.
