T. ‘Hocus Pocus’
I love the duet between T. ‘Hocus Pocus’ and N. ‘Manly’ (pg. 16)!
Most spring flowering bulbs are dormant during the
summer months and will perform better if they are not
artificially watered during that time. If you live in an
area where summer downpours are common, planting
summer flowering bulbs, annuals and perennials in the
same bed will help utilize the rain. However, during
times of drought when watering becomes necessary,
we think plants are happier if they are watered with drip
irrigation and not by an automatic system that sprinkles
everything at 3am everyday whether it’s needed or not!
It feels good to conserve water and make the plants
happy at the same time.

T. ‘Mrs. John T. Scheepers’
T. ‘Paul Scherer’
The intrigue,
mystery and
popularity of T.
‘Paul Scherer’ is
because of its dark
color. However, it
shows up so much
better in the garden
when combined
with lighter colored
flowers. Here,
combined with
T.’Big Smile’ (p.
39), they drew the
gardeners from
across the garden to
investigate.
