This year’s guide features new varieties while maintaining Emerald Coast’s signature ornamental grass program and expanding its perennial plants line.
Notable introductions include an Emerald Coast Growers exclusive: Calamagrostis xa. ‘Lightning Strike,’ with foliage featuring broad central stripes of creamy-white, edged in green. In addition, the company continues to feature new short-day Echinacea and infertile Pennisetums. In total, the guide includes nearly 100 new varieties.
“By analyzing current and historical preferences that drive demand, we ensure this publication is a practical resource for growers and brokers, plus a window into trends for the future,” says Cheri Markowitz, Sales Manager for Emerald Coast Growers.
The 2017-18 Guide features full-color, professionally shot photos of Emerald Coast Growers’ vast offering of perennials, succulents, specialty plants, and the industry’s largest selection of ornamental grasses.
