Annuals

There are almost as many ways to display annuals as there are annuals themselves.

A NEW BEGINNING EACH SPRING

WHY ANNUALS?

For many gardeners, annuals are a go-to solution for many garden needs.

Annual flowers are a quick way to fill empty spots in flowerbeds, and early-blooming spring annuals make great additions to container gardens. A mix of annual plants can offer a colorful solution for windowbox plantings.

However, for any garden, there are dozens of annuals that might work for particular sun/shade situations, soil conditions, and color/plant preferences.

Sun Lovers

Today’s splendid palette lets us use foliage plants as we would blossoms, creating color combinations that last all season. Easy-to-grow coleus, for instance, now comes in an unbelievable selection of colors, leaves and can really make a garden shine. Hostas have had a surge in varieties too, and are a must-have staple in the shade garden.

Container Plants & Hanging Baskets

Starting every spring, Beaver Bark creates a huge selection of hanging baskets and containers for the season. Choose a pre-made basket, or grab a container and some plants and ask an associate to put it together for you. Great for entryways, porches, patios and of course, gifting for that special someone.
