Asclepias curassavica
Common Name: Blood Flower
Asclepias curassavica is a tender perennial that grows upright and tall with spiraling lanceolate leaves. The flowers, in small scarlet red and orange umbels, are very bright and showy, and wonderful at attracting Monarch butterflies. Blood Flower is a milkweed and thus contains a milky sap that exudes from the foliage when cut or damaged.

Coreopsis Limerock Ruby™
Common Name: Hybrid Tickseed
Rosy red 1 1/2" single flowers with gold centers cover the finely cut foliage in early summer and throughout the season. Habit is improved by periodic cutbacks. Another introduction from Blooms of Bressingham. Not recommended for fall planting.
