combos with complimentary groupings in planters and hanging pots. Weve got unique varieties like Ranunculus with

Summer plantings offer the opportunity to use annuals that just thrive in the heat of summer. We have expanded the list
of heat loving annuals that we offer to better meet the challenges of planting and maintaining annuals through the summer in the hot New England sun. Available in multiple sizes at different times of the year so you can revitalize a planter
or plant a garden that looks its best throughout the season.

A lot of planting applications call for foliage and flowers that either sprawl over the ground, or hang over the edge of the
container. We have utilized many of these in our hanging pots and combination planters but also provide 4.5 plants in
many of the species. Each season offers the opportunity to use something different to change things up a bit so be sure
to check on our availability to see what is hot any particular month.

knowledgeable staff for guidance with species selection or cultivar habits. Please be
sure to see our Perennial Catalog for further information and pictures of some of our
perennials but keep in mind it only represents a portion of the varieties we sell.

Sun

Many sun plants can also cope with light shade. Sun plants are those that need direct
sunlight for about six hours a day to thrive.

Shade

Shade is a continuum from partial shade with two to three hours of sun per day or filtered light through trees, or deep shade which receives no sunlight at all. Some gardens
with deciduous trees have seasonal shade conditions. Many shade plants have more
discreet flowers and are characterized by distinctive foliage that provide gardens with
a long season of interest.

Matteuccia

Aquilegia

Brunnera

Epimedium

Hellebore

Our fruit tree, bush, cane, vine, and plant choices enable you to provide an edible array
of economical and relatively easy to grow landscape options.
Provide your customers with a practical addition intermingled among other plants or in
a planned fruit garden. Trees planted in a lawn or border add an attractive feature to the
landscape. Some fruit trees, canes, and bushes are well suited for growing in trained
forms such as espaliers, cordons, pyramids, and fans. These formed fruits work well
where space is limited but do require more pruning to maintain there desired growth
habit once established. Walls, pergolas, fences, or arches also provide ideal sites for
trained fruits. Planted in containers fruits can give an extended production period when
moved under cover during the cold winter months.

Ipomoea

The vegetable and Herb lines we carry have expanded tremendously. We sell both herbs and vegetables in a few sizes
and carry a line of 4 Burpee Vegetables. Our savory herbs and sweet vegetables start with cole crops and moving onto

Annuals

Tropicals

In sunny areas groundcovers are a low maintenance alternative to the most ubiquitous groundcover of all the lawn. They are densely growing, spreading plants that
can out compete weeds. They are useful where maintenance of a garden or a lawn
would be difficult, for example slopes. They are also planted around shrubs, trees,
walks and between stones to create a living carpet, a finished look, in place of
mulch. Some ground covers are evergreen, others die back like other perennials in
Northern gardens. Pachysandra terminalis, Vinca minor and Hedera are evergreen.
Some do not have conspicuous flowers but are characterized by distinctive or colorful foliage or fall color that adds to their appeal. They are very versatile plants.

We are pleased to introduce our expanded line of tropicals.This is an area that

has grown in leaps and bounds and we are excited to offer a nice array of both
blooming tropicals and foliage tropicals. They can be used for a seasonal outdoor
accent or focal point in the garden, on the patio hanging or planted ,or simply
use them year-round indoors to highlight a corner or create impact in a solarium
setting.

Blooming Tropicals

These exotic blooms add a rainbow of color. Available in pot sizes from 4.5 to
25 gallon. Many of them are also available in the following forms: standard, pom,
trellised and topiary.

Spreading

Those varieties with a vigorous spreading habit can withstand moderate foot traffic
so may be used in place of grass in some areas. They are also useful for soil stabilization. Others with a spreading habit can be planted in crevices between stone
paving softening the harshness of the stone and provide a splash of color.

Hibiscus

Trailing

Foliage Tropicals

Trailing habit choices are at there best when planted on the top of or between
stones in rock walls.
More compact and refined groundcovers are good for softening the edges along
paths, and planted along the front of borders.

brought together. An exotic look or a desert garden can be created by simply choosing a number of succulents and grouping them together. Or, simply add a few for
interest in the traditional garden. When you give them a try we know you will love
them.

Our succulents include members of the following families:

Agave, Aloe, Aoenium, Cacti, Crassula, Echeveria, Euphorbia, Haworthia,

of these items for larger wetland and reclaimation projects.We carry a limited supply in
the Pick up Area due to the special needs of this group. They are however readily available so please ask and bring us your specifics. We have them arriving weekly for you in
the prime season.

Bog Marginals grow best in soil that is permanently moist, however many adapt to and
will survive occcasional short periods of drought. Grow on banks of small streams, along
pond edges, or in pond overflow areas. They are also well suited for planting in rain garden runoffs.
Floaters help provide essential water filtration, cover, and food for pond inhabitants while
providing aesthetic value with there attractive foliage and blooms you have come to
know and love.
Oxygenators help to refresh oxygen supply, contributing to a balanced eco system.

Ground Covers

There are many grass, sedge, and grass-like plants in the market today and
we have fine-tuned our list to represent the finest selection for you to find the
perfect plant for every application. They are perfect for both garden beds
and mixed containers alike. They offer enticing textures and dramatic form
anywhere they are planted.

We have compiled a list of Northeast Native perennials that we carry. Keep in mind these varieties are not all available
at all times but seasonally when they are available to us. Please check in often by calling or emailing us at
puasales@cavicchio.com for current lists of availability. We have decided to include the list of species here as there can
be discussion about the cultivar varieties with your sales rep.

Natives

Annual Grasses

Most native species are found in lightly wooded settings or bright thickets in undisturbed areas and now many nurseries. The best use of them is to naturalize the landscape but many of these species are perfect in many garden spaces
alongside newer cultivars.

Many grasses offered as annuals are perennial in life cycle but are tender so
will not winter for us in New England
therefore they are sold as an annual.
