You can request
a “Hold Order” for Hardy Perennials and we will ship them
when it’s planting time in your zone. Otherwise, Hardy
Perennials can be kept in a cool or cold spot like an unheated
garage, cool cellar or outbuilding. Cover the pot and soil
with insulating material (burlap, clean rags, newspaper) and
check the soil every 2-3 weeks to make sure it doesn’t dry
out completely. In the spring, plant as soon as the ground
is open and no longer frozen. Dormant plants can endure
freezing temperatures in the spring as long as the plant
remains dormant without any green buds.
Bird’s Nest Sansevieria ‘Black Star’ (Sansevieria trifasciata)
Small, “birds-nest” sansevierias are becoming popular since they grow only 6-8” tall. The leaves form a tight rosette, the size of a bird’s nest, making them easy, foolproof plants for windowsills. ‘Black Star’ is very showy with dark green leaf centers and bright creamy-yellow leaf edges. This low maintenance succulent needs watering only once or twice a month and performs well in full sun-to-partial sun. Grow in well-drained soil and bring soil to a state of dryness between waterings.
Hardy to Zone 10 and higher for outdoors.
Full sun or partial sun, grows to 6" in container, minimum temperature indoors 40°, summer bloomer.
