Due to the recent discovery of the spotted lanternfly in South Carolina, California has restricted the shipment of plants from SC as well as 15 other states in which the spotted lanternfly had already been found. It was found over 100 miles from Nurseries Caroliniana, but the whole state has been put under quarantine until a treatment protocol can be worked out to resume shipments to California. Authorities hope that this can be accomplished by the end of the month.

Hydrangea aspera 'Rocklon'

$22.00 Sale

Rocklon Aspera Hydrangea. For those gardeners that are not familiar with this species, it has large, fuzzy, pinnate leaves, and it does not fit the "normal" hydrangea leaf that we are most expect. This cultivar of the "aspera" Hydrangeas flowers about a month earlier than 'Kawakamii,' with large lacecap flower heads. The stamens are a pale mauvish-blue and the sterile florets are white tinged with mauve. Since it flowers on old wood, if it needs pruning, perform this task immediately after flowering in early to mid summer. Here in the Deep South, ours flower in late May and June, but in Europe, it flowers in late summer. I have spoken with several gardeners here in the Deep South and all verify that this species flowers better for them when they give it a little more sun. So don't plant it in too much shade.
