Delphinium - Great early cut-flower. Deer resistant, drought tolerant and an early bloomer that produces a bounty of truly stunning bi-colour and tri-colour flowers.(Especially in second and subsequent years.) Provide even moisture and bright light for best results. A hummingbird favorite. Giant Yellow Scabiosa - A rarely seen, bold plant for large beds and borders. 1 - 2 ft. clump forming plant with large deeply lobed leaves that produces a profusion of pale yellow pincushion like flowers, on stems that reach 6 to 10 feet. Attract butterflies and other nectar lovers to your garden. Good drought tolerant, cut flower with a long bloom period and vase life when flower is harvested just as it is opening. Coreopsis - One of the best and oldest varieties of cultivated wildflowers. These plants prefer the well drained soil poor so many of us are blessed with. Coreopsis is a great cut flower that is deer resistant, drought tolerant, butterflies adore it. Coreopsis has also proven to be a lady bug magnet to our gardens. Lady bugs are very beneficial to any garden as they are known to eat aphids.
