A Note About Suncrest Nurseries Orders

Suncrest Nurseries is a special stop for Petula, and is not a standard vendor. We cannot guarantee that all plants are in “retail ready” condition.  Suncrest has assured us that anything below retail readiness is labeled on the availability as “light” or “lndscp”.  Many of these plants are unique specimens and are unavailable from Northwest suppliers; if ordered, they will be sold “as is”. .We always request that product be retail ready, but we will not be able to honor rejections of plants based on retail readiness, particularly if a plant was listed as landscape or light condition on the availability. We’re happy to get more details on the state of an item if you are interested.

Phylica arborea –one of our favorites from the Petula Test Garden.  Placed in the center of this container planting, Phylica provides interesting structure and is deceptively soft to the touch. One of the most asked about plants in our garden!

 

Watch for:
Acacia melanoxylon,
Ceanothus & Rhaphiolepis—great choices for broadleaf evergreens
Eucalyptus ficifolia
Muhlenberia ‘Pink Flamingo’
Trachelium caeruleum
