<strong>The</strong> Newest and <strong>The</strong> Best, (not always the same), Annuals and<br />
Perennials that I have seen and trialed. I will include bedding plants<br />
such as petunias and impatiens and specialty annuals like calibrachoas<br />
and acalyphas. With perennials I will touch on common plants<br />
like dianthus and native plants such as phlox and echinacea, but also<br />
lesser known perennials.<br />
