Perennial Catalog
for Sandy's Plants, Inc.
Our catalog, arranged by botanical names, contains descriptions and cultural information about each of the 2000+ varieties that we grow. This information is based on our experience in growing these plants (in Zone 7), as well as the experiences of our customers. Sandy personally trials many of our selections in her display gardens. When we add a new variety, we provide the best information that we can find on that plant at the time. In addition to individual entries we also provide quick reference lists of plants for particular conditions or purposes, such as clay soil, long bloomtime, groundcovers, coastal sites, deer resistance, etc. Because we grow a large number of Hostas and daylilies we have quick reference charts to help you choose the size, color or other characteristics of these plants. You can access these lists and charts by clicking on the Plant Solutions tab above.
We also produce a yearly print catalog that is available by mail. (If you are a current wholesale customer, you will automatically receive one when they are published.) Although the print catalog does not contain photos, it is a valuable reference for anyone growing perennial plants in this area. The catalog is $4.00 if purchased at the nursery. We will be happy to mail a copy for $6.00 (includes postage), select Contact Us.
The catalog below will allow you to create a Shopping List of the plants you are interested in purchasing. You will be able to print this list to take with you to your local garden center or to our nursery.
