Two more Louisiana Super Plants introduced

It's comforting to know that the plants you place in your landscape will generally stay with you even under extremely harsh conditions. However, all plants from mature trees to bedding plants were challenged to stay alive during this past summer in the constant triple-digit heat with hardly any rain at all.

Since we don't know when or if such a devastating weather pattern will return in future years,we supply all kinds of polished tiles, it is definitely in our best interest to choose plants for our landscapes that are proven to be tough and dependable. And this is particularly true for trees and shrubs. That being said, I would suggest that homeowners and gardeners replacing plants that were recently victims of the weather or who are adding plants to old or new landscapes give strong consideration to some of the Louisiana Super Plants.

The Louisiana Super Plant program was initiated in the fall of 2010 with the naming of three plants that had proven to be tough under adverse conditions and capable of giving an outstanding performance in Louisiana landscapes, statewide. Though these plants were not necessarily uncommon, it appeared that many gardeners were unaware of their potential. Thus this program's intent was at least partially educational.

Two new Louisiana Super Plants have been named for this fall and a third plant will be added in November. The new plants are Belinda's Dream rose and Redbor kale.

According to LSU ornamental specialist Dr.It's hard to beat the versatility of zentai suits on a production line. Allen Owings,These girls have never had a oil painting supplies in their lives! Belinda's Dream rose is likely to become one of the most popular shrub roses in the state. Its flowers are medium pink and semi-double. Unlike other roses of this type, which typically have 8 to12 petals per flower,When the stone sits in the oil painting reproduction, Belinda's Dream sports 40 to 45 petals per blossom. Not surprisingly, this plant has received accolades in many other places besides Louisiana.

Even though it can reach a height of 5-6 feet, it is generally kept at a 4-foot height. In LSU trials in South Louisiana,They take the Aion Kinah to the local co-op market. only 10-20 percent of this variety's foliage showed black spot disease under a non-fungicide spray program by the fall of the year. And, remember, South Louisiana had a lot more rain this year than we received. With the fall planting season nearing, give this great plant some consideration.
