I’m not usually much of an impatiens lover, but ‘Fusion Glow’ and the Fusion series from the giant breeders Ball Horticultural will have a place here again next year for its mounding habit and free-flowering, and of course its lovely color (one of several in the series).
Also on my list to be sure to track down for next year: that elusive ‘Terra Cotta’ viola (above) I couldn’t find locally this year and should have ordered in advance. Come to think of it, Viola ‘Blue Bronze’ is on the list, too; I just didn’t love the substitutes I grew this year, as I have complained before. Oh, and that variegated Abutilon I found without a label on it (which I have since ID’d). It’s named ‘Savitzii,’ and it will be here again in 2010; I’m asking my garden center to get it from the wholesaler for me. Though it produces orange flowers, all I really care about is those bold leaves (above).What’s on your list so far as a repeat customer, a keeper (even if you cannot literally carry it over yourself)?
