These are our new plant introductions and changes to our Spring 2023 program.
Going Forward with Annuals
As the cost of basic annual seeds continue to go up we have been force to move some items out of the J6 and 1801 Basic Annual categories into the #4 Deluxe Annual category. We have been told by our seed suppliers that this trend will continue and that they will phase out the less expensive seed lines in favor of pricier “updated” seed series.
Another option we are looking at is to change to a different flat configuration that is between the J6 and 1801s or something comparable to streamline our production into fewer flat/cost configurations.
If you have any preference on what sizes you think would be best, please Contact Us and let us know. We welcome your input.
J6 & 1801 Annuals
The only change to our J6 Annuals is to move the Taishan Marigolds to the #4 Deluxe Annual category. We will no longer be growing them in J6.
In our 1801 Annual category, we moved the Gazanias and the Taishan Marigolds to the #4 Deluxe Annual category.
We also added Petunia Pretty Grand Blue Sky and Petunia Pretty Grand Mello Yellow to our #4(1801) Petunias.


#4 (1801) Deluxe Annuals
We have moved the #4 Gazanias and #4 Taishan Marigolds to our #4(1801) Deluxe Annual category, and will no longer offer them in our #4 Basic Annuals or J6 Annuals. We also moved the #4 Hypoestes to the #4 Accent category and will no loner offer them in the #4 Basic Annual category.
We streamlined out selection of Zinnias by removing duplicate colors. We replaced Profusion Red with Profusion Double Red, and we dropped Profusion Yellow and Profusion Orange.
We have also added three colors of the new Zydeco Zinnias – Cherry, Deep Yellow and Fire. Zydecos have large, double blooms and are a slightly more vigorous than Dreamland.

#4 (1801) Accents

#3.5 Succulents
We have added Little Shimmer Sedum to our Succulents and discontinuing Black Prince Echeveria and Haworthia Super Fasciata.

2022 Ball Horticultural Company

We are working to continually improve our selection of varieties. After visiting some of the southern trail gardens, we decided to add Calibrachoa Conga Purple Star and Conga Rose that replace Conga Pink and Conga Rose Kiss.


2022 Ball Horticultural Company
We added the Trailing Great Fall Yosemite Coleus to our #4.5 Coleus lineup. We are also utilizing it in our #12 Shade Combo Basket Yosemite.

Due to the Fiesta Double Impatiens being phased out and discontinued, we have switched to the new Glimmer Double Impatiens. The Glimmer series has six colors – Appleblossom, Bright Red, Burgundy, Hot Pink, Salmon and White






2022 Ball Horticultural Company
We have updated the Petticoat New Guinea Impatiens by adding Pink Berry and Purple and dropped Neon Night, Pink and Purple Star. We are also trialing a few Wild Romance Peach in the #4.5 Premium Annual size category. We’ll have to see how well those do.

While they were not listed on this page in 2022’s New Items list last spring, we added Lantana Shamrock Orange Flame, Peach and White. This year we added Shamrock Butterscotch Glow.




2022 Ball Horticultural Company
We will be doing an extended trial of Petunia Itsy White which has been touted as a bacopa replacement for warmer climates where bacopas don’t do well. You get the same delicate look with Itsy White Petunia’s small blooms.

New for Spring 2023 are #4.5 Premium Sallyfun™ Salvia. These are some more items that we saw at the summer plant trials that impressed us with their performance. Their heat tolerance combined with outstanding blooms should be a hit with garden centers and landscapers. We are growing three colors Sallyfun™ Blue Lagoon, Deep Ocean and Pure White. We are also adding more #6 Premium Annual Salvia. More info on them are below.

We have replaced the blue and white scaevola we were growing with Surdiva Purple and Surdiva White Scaevloa.




© 2022 Suntory Flowers
One of the newest items on the plant market is Tradescantia Nanouk which we have added to our #4.5 Premium Annual container category.
Also to hopefully clear up any confusion, it should be noted that a few years back we started growing what was then called Trandescantia Rhoeo Tricolor. It seems that the plant was originally listed as tradescantia but more recently it was changed to Rhoeo (Rhoeo spathacea). It is still listed as Tradescantia Compacta Tricolor on some plant supplier lists.
So to hopefully prevent confusion (or possibly cause more) we will be going with the most recent nomenclature of Rhoeo Tricolor for that plant and Tradescantia for the Nanouk. You might notice that Tradescantia Nanouk looks similar to Tradescantia zebrina more commonly known as Purple Jew.

lastly in our #4.5 Premium Annual category we have made a few changes to our Vinca. First, we have switched to growing all Cora XDR and Cora Cascade XDR Vinca varieties. This caused us to drop Cora Cascade Cherry. Second, we also added Cora XDR Polka Dot and Cora Cascade XDR Punch. Last, we replaced Tattoo Tangerine Vinca with Tattoo Orange.

QT Proven Winner Annuals & QT Proven Winner Graceful Grasses
We only have two changes to our Proven Winners this year. First, we have added Supertunia Persimmon. Second, Proven Winners discontinued the Juncus Spiralis and replaced it with Juncus Curly Wurly which is really no change at all since it’s practically the same plant. Curly Wurly may be a superior plant to the common juncus spriralis. We’ll just have to wait and see if it’s any better.
#6 Premium Annuals
In our #6 Premium Annual Angelonia we moved the Archangel Cherry Red to the small #4.5 Premium Annual category and added Angelmist Trailing Bluebird and Trailing Pink to go with the Angelmist Trailing Dark Purple Angelonia we have been growing.


We added Jurassic Dino Black Sky Begonia to the Jurassic Begonias.

We also added Cannova Bronze Peach and Canna Rose to the Cannova Cannas.


Last, we added Salvia Blue Chill and Salvia Purple & Bloom to go with the Salvia Black & Bloom that we have been growing.

#6 Confetti Garden
The Confetti Gardens in all sizes (#6, #12 Bskt & #12 Deco) have not sold all that well the past few years. So we have decided to completely revamp the series by replacing nearly all the Confetti Garden we were growing with different mixes in the Confetti line. We tried to utilize the most heat tolerant of the Confetti by changing mixes and by timing the mixes within the weeks where they perform the best – early (wk 12), mid (wk 14 & 16) & late (wk 18).
We have added the Confetti shown below and dropped all the Hawaiian mixes except for Hawaiian Hilo. Please see our item list for the complete list.

#10 Geranium Baskets
We have updated our Caliente Geranium basket colors. We have been growing the same colors for quite a while now and new colors have been introduced over the years. We have added Caliente Coral Salmon and Caliente Orange which replaces Caliente Hot Coral and Caliente Rose. We have also added Caliente Fire, and we have updated the Tropical Mix with the new colors. Tropical Mix now will consist of Caliente Coral Salmon, Lavender and Orange.



We have also added a planting of Caldera Geranium baskets that will replace the last planting of Caliente baskets. So we will have Caliente early and mid-season then Caldera late. They are scheduled to be ready the last week of April. Caldera Geraniums are interspecific gernaiums with a spreading habit. They have the same heat tolerance as the Caliente Geraniums. We are growing the Caldera Lavender Glow, Pink, Red and Salmon.




Caliente & Caldera Geranium images © 2022 Syngenta
Last change to the #10 Baskets is that we will be updating the Double Impatiens to the new Glimmer series due to the Fiesta series being discontinued. There are six colors in the Glimmer series.






#12 Baskets Confetti Garden
We have drastically cut back on the number and quantities of Confetti Garden we grow in baskets. Out of all the different ones we grew last spring, we are only keeping the Bloomtastic Blossoms and Cupcake Smarty Party. In addition to that we are also only growing certain Confetti on certain weeks like we are doing with the #6 Confetti.
If you are looking for Hawaiian Confetti and other Confetti Trios, we are substituting more of the MixMasters and Trixi combos to make up those numbers. You can see more about them below. Here are the Confetti Garden we are growing this year:

#12 Combo Baskets
We have increased the number of varieties of #12 Combo Baskets we are growing to make up for the Confetti we have dropped. These include custom combos, KwikKombos, and more MixMasters and Trixi combos to go with the ones we have been growing.
#12 Custom Combo Baskets
This is going to take a little bit of explaining. We have added some Kwik Kombos, MixMasters and Trixi combos in our Combo Decos. We decided to use some of those same mixes in out Combo Baskets but some of the items in those combos are too tall for baskets so we have modified those to use items that fit better in baskets. But we have kept the same names so that there is no confusion with the loading crew and customers. The items will look very similar but there will be at least one substituted item. To show these changes below, the catalog image will be shown with the change/changes.
