Black-Eyed Stella Daylily

This beauitful perennial reaches about 2' tall, with long strappy grass-like foliage most of year. Trumpet shaped flowers bloom in spring and summer, lasting only 1 day. Flowers are pale yellow with an intense orange eye zone. Cut foliage in fall to refresh. Will bloom more if soil is amended with compost and mulched to retain moisture. Plant in full sun. It needs medium amount of watering and extra during hot summer months.

Coast Redwood, Redwood

Common name:Coast Redwood, Redwood
Botanical name:Sequoia sempervirens

This fast-growing, aromatic tree has soft, dark green foliage with long needles appearing in flat sprays and brown, barrel-shaped cones that appear after 1 year. Its soft, red-brown bark is fiberous and furrowed. Particularly after mechanical damage, this tree will stump sprout to form new, young trees around the stump. Avoid planting in areas of high foot traffic.
