Spring Flowers

Back to the Troop 12
Home Page

Our flowers are grown by the scouts in a backyard. They are subject to the fickle weather of spring in Oklahoma rather than protected in a greenhouse.  Our plants are not so apt to get sun or wind burned when you set them out into your garden.  We deliver in later in May.  Your contribution will further a girl's education and help her earn her own way to the Texas Gulf to study marine biology. 

Wave Petunias-Place in full sun, tolerates the heat well.  Great for containers or hanging baskets.  They reach a height of about 4 inches with a terrific trailing habit. Extremely free flowering. They survived the extreme drought conditions and temperatures of over 110 degrees in concrete containers.
Tidal Waves-A mounding form of wave petunias.  Great as a ground cover with the same drought and temperature tolerance.
Floribunda Madness Petunias -A popular choice of petunias, which produce an abundance of 3-inch blooms.  Grow in full sun in well drained soil.   Available in many solid colors and veined colors.  Veined varieties have darker colored veins making them standout from the crowd.
Impatiens-Dazzler Series- Great for the  shade!  Compact plants produce loads of large, single, colorful blooms up to 2 inches across.  Ideal for shady containers, under trees and shade gardens.  Available in a large variety of colors.  Pictured is apricot.
First Lady Marigolds- Up to 2 ½ feet tall.  Produces Carnation type 3½ inch clear yellow ball shaped blooms.  A great background plant. 
Yellow Boy French Marigolds- Dwarf about 1 foot or less tall.  Double yellow 1½-inch blooms.  Both marigolds love full sun and bloom all summer long.
