Benary1. Petunia SUCCESS! ® Yellow Chiffon You need the best color, the best show, and the best habit for maximum profits. At last, Petunia SUCCESS! ® Yellow Chiffon is here. As refreshing as a cool glass of lemonade. The well-formed light yellow blooms don’t reflex and they hold their color all season. Perfect for premium baskets and mixes, SUCCESS! ® Yellow Chiffon lives up to the high standards of the SUCCESS! ® Series.

2. Calocephalus Bed Head™Looking for some fun in the sun? Calocephalus Bed Head™ is the first calocephalus from seed! Virtually unknown in the U.S., calocephalus is a favorite at the Aalsmeer flower auction because it’s so versatile. It looks a bit like barbed-wire, but is soft, flexible and oh-so-touchable, that’s why we called it Bed Head! Its silvery foliage makes eye-catching mixed containers, mono-culture pots or topiaries. It can even be dyed and used in wreaths or crafts.

3. Salvia Farina®Salvia Farina® series is the super fragrant, super versatile salvia farinacea available from Benary+ as unrooted cuttings. Perfect for early spring sales, Salvia Farina performs well in pots, mixed containers or in the ground. The huge, full flower spikes grow to 18” tall in the garden, and hold their color all season. Available in six vivid, self-cleaning colors: Arctic Blue, Bicolor Blue, Blue, Silver Blue, Violet, and White.

CALADIUMAutumn Beauty is a chartreuse fancy leaf with maroon veins. When Autumn Beauty from Bates Sons & Daughters is grown in the shade, it keeps a chartreuse color. However, when it is grown in full sun, it develops a rust-colored overlay on the leaves. It is a very striking contrast. This is one of the oldest caladium varieties no longer grown that we have brought back into production. De-eyeing is recommended for 4” and 6” pots. It was released for sale in 2017.

Fiesta is a short fancy leaf caladium with bright white leaves and thick red veins. Fi-esta has many leaves and does not require de-eyeing. It makes a nice full pot for 4, 6 and 8-inch containers. It performs well in sun or shade conditions. This is a Univer-sity of Florida release, but Bates Sons & Daughters is currently the only caladium farm that has it in production.

Flamingo is fancy leaf caladium with

a neon pink center and a bright green border. It will perform very well in the full sun. Uses include all container sizes and landscape plantings- sun or shade. De-eyeing recommended for 4 and 6-inch pots. A Bates Sons & Daughters exclu-sive. It was released for sale in 2017.

Spring Fling is a translucent pink fancy leaf with prominent green veins and black stems. It will perform very well in the full sun or shade. De-eyeing is recommended for 4 and 6-inch pots.
