Contact your preferred Walters Gardens Sales Representative if you are interested in the program. They can be reached directly or at sales@waltersgardens.com



Characteristics of an EZ Scape™

Multiple Seasons of Interest

Too many landscapes are front loaded or have their plants packed into a short flowering window, creating long stretches of garden blah. Whether it is Spring, Summer, or Fall, EZ Scapes™ have a plant that is going to be popping in the landscape. This could be from a spectacular flowering performance or the graceful elegance of an Ornamental Grass.

Successive Blooming

Perennials that bloom for the full year are rare (and those that do frequently require constant deadheading). EZ Scapes™ pair perennials that bloom successively so there is always something showing interest in your garden.

Complementing Foliage

Plants are more than just their flowers! One of the ways to turn a good landscape into a great landscape is complementing foliage textures and colors. EZ Scapes™ match fine and broad leaf textures, take into account blues, silvers, or yellow tones in the leaves, and pair them with the flowering performance of the plants.

Similar Growing Conditions

EZ Scapes™ recipes grow well together because they have similar garden requirements. Plants paired in an EZ Scape™ will all thrive in similar light, soil, fertility, and watering conditions.
