Extraordinary Plants -- Extraordinary Ways

(ARA) - How many plants come with a tsunami warning? Gardeners using Wave petunias are advised to plant and step back, way back!

Gardeners familiar with Wave varieties know that they are not your grandmother's petunias. Now the key is to harness the flower power of these frothing, foaming wonders to create new and unusual effects in the garden.

Gardening With Roses

Roses have a wonderful fragrance and are the ultimate flower when it comes to romance. Roses are also easy to grow although for many years they were thought of as being a plant that required extra TLC. I have many roses throughout my garden, many colors and sizes too add to my gardens. For the best production, I have found that my roses need their individual space. They do not do well competing with other plants for room. Find a level space that drains well and preferably offers a southern exposure where the morning sun and afternoon shade reach.
