Farfugium japonicum var. giganteum 'Marco' holds a special place in our hearts for its outstanding glossy foliage and 4 feet tall late blooming flower stalks. While other cultivars tickle our senses with fun and sometimes weird variegation, this one adds a very bold contrast to any fine foliage opening up a myriad of garden possibilities. 'Marco's' companion here is Carex oshiemensis 'Everillo'. Zones: 7b to 10b. #farfugium #shadeplants #fallflowers | Plant Delights Nursery, Inc.

The giant sequoias of California start from something so small it can fit in the palm of your hand - a seed no bigger than a flake of oatmeal. Yet, with time and the right conditions, it can grow into a towering giant reaching over 270 feet tall and living for more than 3,000 years. Standing beneath one of these trees feels like stepping back in time, surrounded by living history that began with a seed just like this. 🌲✨ . . . . . #sequoias #sequoiatree #sequoiatrees #sequoia #sequoianationalpa
