A memorable sight when in blooms, Clematis 'Ernest Markham' is a deciduous vine that gets covered with a profusion of large, 4-6 in. (10-15 cm), vivid magenta flowers with blunt-tipped velvety petals and chocolate anthers. A gardener's favorite since its introduction in 1926! Blooming in mid-summer to early fall, this vigorous and extremely floriferous Clematis vine won the prestigious Award of Garden Merit of the Royal Horticultural Society for its noteworthy qualities. Excellent choice for trellis, it can be trained to climb a wall, fence, or arbor and is also well suited to containers

Drought resistant, shade tolerant, Rosa 'American Pillar' is a striking rambler rose which explodes with a profusion of carmine-pink single blooms, 2.25 in. wide (5.5 cm), held in huge clusters. A brushing of white at the base of the 5 petals offsets a large eye of golden stamens. These wonderful blossoms resemble the wild rose in size and look and are an unending source of beauty. Far more hardy than many types of roses, wonderfully vigorous and very reliable, 'American Pillar' can grow quite large and provides interesting landscape opportunities with its heavy canes, densely clothed with luxuriant, glossy green foliage. Sadly it has no fragrance. Blooms once in spring or summer

Widely appreciated by gardeners, award-winning Campanula lactiflora 'Prichard's Variety' (Milky Bellflower) is a perennial that produces profuse, rounded clusters of rich violet-blue, trumpet-shaped flowers, adorned with a white center. Borne on sturdy stems clad with narrow, pointed leaves, they offer their spectacular floral display from midsummer to early fall. A great asset for beds and borders, this elegant cottage favorite will add interest to your sunny or partially shaded garden.
