Canna lilies are one of those plants whose foliage can absolutely pack just as much ornamental punch as their flowers. Check out the vein action and colors on a leaf belonging to a member of our Sunscape®️ collection. Cannas thrive in heat and humidity. Cold hardy to Zone 7.

May gray, make some room (you too, June gloom). It’s Sunscape®️ Hibiscus season now. This Altman Plants-bred 💥 of tropical hibiscus goodness is named Tiki.

Spotted this past weekend at a retail partner garden center. #plantbreeding #hibiscus #gardencenter

Aloe 'Crimson Dragon' PP32,644 looking absolutely on fire, even when the sun is directly elsewhere. The clumping fire-breather and Altman original hybrid is part of our Star Aloe®️ brand. Texturally dashing in various visual flavors, but site in strong light for most fiery color.

Altman Plants-bred Aeonium ‘Mardi Gras’ PP21,407 still going strong in this inland San Diego County landscape. Aeoniums adore cooler, rainy (to a point) weather and sit out dry, hot summers. #succulents

🚀 Leucospermum So Exquisite looks like it's ready for launch.

Part of our Forever Flowers®️ collection, this Leucospermum reflexum hybrid produces rocket-shaped #pincushion flowers in spring, shooting up from gray-green foliage. The shrub grows to 7 to 9' high and 7' wide.

Don't mind us checking out at retail the leafy goods from our Calif. #foliage production team. Somebody scooped up a stunner. This is Syngonium 'Golden Allusion'. You might also see this S. podophyllum (arrowhead vine) cultivar labeled as 'Gold Allusion'.

These geraniums on are 🔥 in the best possible way. Caliente®️ Orange by @SyngentaUS , grown at our nursery in #fallbrookcalifornia. We were touring spring color plants last week and got a verifiable kick out of seeing these intensely colorful flowers.

We had the pleasure of visiting our Fallbrook, California, nursery on Thursday, amped to get a meaningful peek at as many color items as possible.

Patriot series geraniums by @DummenOrangeEU really caught our eyes. This is Lavender Blue in a 10" container.
