Happy Flag Day from BE
Flag Day is Monday, June 14. Let us Decorate your campus in Red, White & Blue with Cranberry Crush Hibiscus, White Hydrangeas or Baptisia Blues!
As gardeners, one way we can show our patriotism is by planting an American garden. Annual and perennial beds can triumph fully and proudly display the colors of red, white, and blue.
With a little planning and effort, you can achieve the same effect with the flowers of your choice.
RED FLOWERS
Tall: Crocosmia, Cardinal Flower, Knock Out Rose
Medium: Annual Salvia, Penta
Short: Zinnia, Petunia
WHITE FLOWERS
Tall: Butterfly Bush, Fairy Rose, Peony, Hollyhock

BLUE FLOWERS

Whichever flowers you choose to plant in your All-American garden, one thing is certain: the results will be beautiful.
