The new Sundenias offer the gorgeous, large flowers consumers love in mandevillas but on a compact, manageable plant. Sundenia’s flowers are 3-5 inches in diameter, double the size of a typical dipladenia. Consumers will enjoy the high flower count. Plants are ideal for patio pots and hanging baskets.

Mighty ‘Mato Grafted Tomatoes are stronger, faster, more able to fend off foes than regular tomato plants – and their harvests are bigger! Mighty ‘Mato goes above and beyond the call of duty, defending against pests, diseases, temperature extremes, and poor soils while producing long, abundant harvests of tasty fruit!

Grafting joins the top part of one plant (the scion) to the root system of a separate plant (the rootstock). As their tissues heal, they fuse into one super plant that combines the rootstock’s vigor and disease resistance with the scion’s exceptional fruit quality. The graft must stay above soil level, and prune lateral suckers for best fruiting.
