Rock Star Filler

Planted Plum Dandy in one of my pots this year and have not been disappointed. The color is dark and vibrant at the same time and allows my flowering plants to shine. So far it is staying perfectly in it's place without taking over or shying away. I will purchase this plant every year!

It’s just Plum Dandy

My plant was shipped promptly and it was healthy. My neighbor is retired and was at home when it arrived. I had her open the box 📦 to let the plant 🪴 breathe and she watered it. I have provided before and after pics.

I love this plant- it totally filled up the pot around the boxwood in a large pot with white vinca- my neighborhood deer don’t munch on them- and I am grateful for that!!!

I love this plant,this is my 2nd year having it and it needs nothing but water. It's eye catching, everyone who sees it has a compliment. Mine are in full sun.
