An Amaranth novelty. Usually, you encounter solid colors with amaranths, so 'Mira' is a pleasant refreshment. The color is not solid; it shifts between green, antique pink, and burgundy. A great and delicate combination! Amaranth is an unbeatable filler for bouquets. Simple to grow, fast-growing, and adding beautiful structure whether to a garden bed or a bouquet.

The classic of our grandmothers' gardens has gained a new flair. Double-flowered Marigold! 'Pacific Beauty Apricot' features shades of orange, yellow, to apricot.

Our favorite foliage and filler. It grows beautifully and binds famously! The flowers are yellowish, so they don't color-match every bouquet, but we still never have enough of it! And after flowering, tiny seed pods form which are also beautifully decorative and don't wilt; we love collecting those too.
