Scientific Name Protea caffra Meisn.
Common Names Sugar Bush Synonyms Protea caffra subsp. caffra, Protea bolusii, Protea multibracteata, Protea rhodantha Scientific Classification Family: Proteaceae Genus: Protea
Flower Color: Reddish to pink or cream Bloom Time: Summer to winter Description Protea caffra is an evergreen shrub or small tree up to 10 feet (3 m) tall, with a somewhat rounded crown. The grey-green leaves are elongated with nearly parallel sides. They are leathery in texture and may be up to 10 inches (25 cm) long. The flower heads can be borne singly or in clusters. They reach up to 3.2 inches (8 cm) in diameter with the outer bracts varying from reddish to pink or cream in color. Many tiny, single flowers are clustered together in the flower head. When pollinated each flower forms a small nut which is covered in rich reddish brown hairs. The thick bark has a chunky, corky texture. Hardiness USDA hardiness zone 8a to 11b: from 10 °F (−12.2 °C) to 50 °F (+10 °C).
How to Grow and Care Proteas are often seen as temperamental and difficult plants to grow, but the truth is that they are relatively easy as long as you follow a few simple rules. Most Proteas prefer soils that are well-drained and acidic and we suggest to avoid heavy clay soils, as they need good drainage for healthy root growth. If you have a garden with heavy or clay soil, consider improving the drainage by using a free draining garden mix and either creating a raised garden bed (minimum height 12 to 18 inches / 30 to 45 cm) or installing underground drainage pipes. We recommended planting in autumn or spring, allowing the Proteas to absorb as much sun as possible. For best results, allow plenty of space between plants for air to circulate and avoid planting any Proteas deeper than the surface level in the pot. We suggest avoided any use of fertilizer when planting out Proteas, as they have a specially adapted system of fine roots (called ‘proteoid’ roots) which will develop naturally to seek out available nutrients in the soil. Origin Native to South Africa, Lesotho, Zimbabwe and Mozambique.

Scientific Name Primula vulgaris Huds.
Common Names English Primrose, Common Primrose, Wild Primrose Synonyms Primula acaulis, Primula veris var. acaulis Scientific Classification Family: Primulaceae Subfamily: Primuloideae Genus: Primula
Flower Color: Typically pale yellow Bloom Time: Late winter or early spring Description Primula vulgaris is a perennial growing up to 12 inches (30 cm), with a basal rosette of leaves which are more-or-less evergreen in favored habitats. The leaves are up to 10 inches (25 cm) long and up to 2.2 inches (6 cm) broad, often heavily wrinkled, with an irregularly crenate to dentate margin, and a usually short leaf stem. The delicately scented flowers are up to 1.6 inches (4 cm) in diameter, borne singly on short slender stems. The flowers are typically pale yellow, though white or pink forms are often seen in nature.
How to Grow and Care Potted indoor Primula are a delightful way to usher out winter or welcome in the spring. They are available in a wide range of striking colors, forming a mass of flowers. Most people prefer the taller, upright delicate Primulas indoors, but even a pot of common Primula is a nice addition. Extend the flowering season by pinching off dying buds. After the plant has done blooming, consider moving it outside. While inside, do not overwater; wilting even though the plant is getting water is a sign of root rot. It’s unlikely you’ll be repotting your potted Primula. If you do, make sure not to bury them too deep—burying too deep is a prime reason Primula succumb. Bury the plants so the top of the root ball is slightly elevated above the level of the surrounding soil. Never pile soil up around the stem of a flowering plant. They are propagated from seed, which are sown directly in soil or potting media. Most pots of indoors Primula are purchased as flowering plants, destined to be set atop a desk, sill, or table until they’re done flowering. Origin Native to western and southern Europe (from the Faroe Islands and Norway south to Portugal, and east to Germany, Ukraine, the Crimea, and the Balkans), northwest Africa (Algeria), and southwest Asia (Turkey east to Iran).

Scientific Name Polygonatum odoratum (Mill.) Druce
Common Names Angular Solomon’s Seal, Scented Solomon’s Seal, Aromatic Solomon’s Seal, Solomon’s Seal Synonyms Convallaria odorata (basionym), Polygonatum japonicum, Polygonatum officinale Scientific Classification Family: Asparagaceae Subfamily: Nolinoideae Genus: Polygonatum
Flower Color: White and green Bloom Time: Spring Description Polygonatum odoratum is a herbaceous perennial up to 33 inches (85 cm) tall and up to 12 inches (30 cm) wide, with alternate, simple leaves on arching stems. The scented tubular flowers are hermaphrodite (have both male and female organs), white in color, with green tips, borne in spring and hanging from the underside of the stems.
How to Grow and Car Plants are usually started by transplants or rhizomes. Seeds of Polygonatum can take up to 2 years to sprout, so you will get some seeding in established plantings. Solomon’s Seal like a rich organic soil with a pH in the acidic to neutral zone. They need some shade to truly thrive. Damp shade is even better, although once established, they are quite drought tolerant. Plants can be started in the spring or fall. Plant only 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm) deep and about 2 to 3 inches (5 to 7.5 cm) apart. Solomon’s Seal seldom needs division. It takes several years before a clump is large enough to divide for propagation purposes. When ready, divide in early spring or fall and leave several buds on each division, for the best success. The rhizomes can be divided even further, but it will take longer for them to become established. Another option is to remove and plant just the offsets at the out edges of a clump. Origin Native to Europe, the Caucasus, Siberia, the Russian Far East, China, Mongolia, Korea and Japan.

Scientific Name Plumeria rubra L.
Common Names Frangipani, Red Paucipan, Red Jasmine, Red Frangipani, Common Frangipani, Temple Tree, Plumeria Synonyms Plumeria rubra f. rubra, Plumeria acuminata, Plumeria acutifolia, Plumeria angustifolia, Plumeria arborea, Plumeria arborescens, Plumeria aurantia, Plumeria aurantiaca, Plumeria bicolor, Plumeria blandfordiana, Plumeria carinata, Plumeria conspicua, Plumeria gouanii, Plumeria incarnata, Plumeria jamesonii, Plumeria kerrii, Plumeria kunthiana, Plumeria lambertiana, Plumeria loranthifolia, Plumeria lutea, Plumeria macrophylla, Plumeria megaphylla, Plumeria mexicana, Plumeria milleri, Plumeria mollis, Plumeria northiana, Plumeria purpurea, Plumeria tenuifolia, Plumeria tricolor Scientific Classification Family: Apocynaceae Subfamily: Rauvolfioideae Tribe: Plumerieae Genus: Plumeria
Flower Color: Pink, white and yellow Bloom Time: Summer and autumn Description Plumeria rubra is a delightful small tree for a garden with a semi-tropical look. It grows as a spreading tree up to 26 feet (8 m) high and wide, and is flushed with fragrant flowers of shades of pink, white and yellow over the summer and autumn. Hardiness USDA hardiness zone 10a to 11b: from 30 °F (−1.1 °C) to 50 °F (+10 °C).
How to Grow and Care Although you don’t have to live in the tropics to grow Plumeria in the home garden, you should be aware of its growing requirements beforehand. Often grown in the garden as an ornamental shrub or small tree, Plumeria plants need to be grown in well-draining soil that is slightly acidic. They also need at least six hours of full sun. While the plants are fairly tolerant of both salt and windy conditions, they’re not tolerant of cold and must be protected. Therefore, they should be container grown in colder regions. In areas that may be warm most of the time but still fairly prone to cold winters, the plant can be dug up and overwintered indoors. Alternatively, you can sink container grown Plumerias in the ground, bringing them indoors once the temperatures begin to drop in fall. Once warmer temps return in spring, you can return the plants back outdoors. When growing Plumeria plants in pots, use a coarse, well-draining potting mix—cactus mix or perlite and sand should be fine. Origin Native to Mexico, Central America, Colombia and Venezuela.

Scientific Name Pieris japonica (Thunb.) D. Don ex G. Don
Common Names Japanese Pieris, Japanese Andromeda, Lily-of-the-valley Bush Synonyms Andromeda japonica (basionym), Lyonia polita, Lyonia popowii, Pieris japonica var. taiwanensis, Pieris polita, Pieris popowii, Pieris taiwanensis Scientific Classification Family: Ericaceae Genus: Pieris
Flower Color: White Bloom Time: Spring Description Pieris japonica is a shrub or a small tree, up to 13.1 feet (4 m) tall, occasionally up to 32.8 feet (10 m), with alternate, simple leaves on brittle stems. The flowers are white, borne in early spring and lasts usually for two or three weeks.
How to Grow and Care As they are originally from a forested habitat they do best in dappled shade. Strong sun in early spring can burn the tender new growth. They will not do too well in full shade as they won’t produce as many flowers and the color of the new growth won’t be as intense. They need well-drained but moisture retentive humus-rich acid soil. If you have an alkaline soil you will have to grow it in a pot; you can add ericaceous compost and feed and mulch with pine needles but it will only be temporary and an alkaline soil will always be an alkaline soil. They are a hardy shrub but it may need some protection from late frosts which will burn the new growth and flowers. The frost probably won’t kill the plant but it will mar the spring display which is usually the main reason it is grown. Plant them to the same depth as they are in the pot and water well. Keep an eye on the watering in the first season, particularly if there is a long dry spell. Origin Native to eastern China, Taiwan, and Japan where it grows in mountain thickets.
