Terra Nova Nurseries is displaying new plant introductions at its Cultivate'23 exhibit booth (#1121, 1321, NV62, NV64), as well as releasing a new print and online catalog supplement.
The new varieties are from a select range of genera, including bergenia, geum, heuchera, penstemon, rudbeckia, scabiosa and sedum. Terra Nova selected these plants as introductions for the coming year in recognition of their improvements over prior cultivars as well as their performance-focused, best-of-breeding traits.
Terra Nova’s exhibit at Cultivate will portray an authentic garden setting, providing showgoers with a wide range of plant applications for borders, beds, containers and more. The booth will showcase a collection of varieties that are new for 2023-2024 and many previous favorites.
Some of the individual debuts to display at Cultivate include:
Bergenia ‘Bouquet': A new addition to Terra Nova’s VINTAGE™ series, it's highlighted by its clumping growth habit and clusters of large, lavender-pink flowers, displaying perfectly in gardens and containers.
Geum TEMPO™ ‘Coral’: The new geum in the popular TEMPO™ series features many bright, coral-red flowers with a compact habit and a variety of special uses, including being deer resistant and an excellent pollinator attractor.
Heuchera ‘Changeling’: It has a unique characteristic of weekly color transitions that paint an ever-changing natural landscape for blender, contrast or mixed containers.
FOREVER® 'Midnight' and ‘Peach Smoothie’: Two new heucheras launching at Cultivate include 'Midnight,' the newest addition to Terra Nova’s FOREVER® Collection with ruffled purple-black leaves with crisp edges, ‘Peach Smoothie,' with large, bold leaves with cherry, coral and orange undertones.
Penstemon NOVA® 'Twilight' and Penstemon NOVA® 'Pearl': Part of Terra Nova’s Penstemon NOVA® Series, these new varieties were bred by Terra Nova breeders for added height compared to previous cultivars.
'Parade of Parrots': Another new penstemon debuting at Cultivate stands out with its enormous floral display of claret-colored flowers supported by strong, upright stems.
Rudbeckia 'Summer Sienna': It has a bountiful production of mid-sized, tawny and sun-bronze flowers destined to be the staple of any well-drained, sunny garden.
Scabiosa NOVA® 'Dew Drops': It was bred to exhibit an enhanced look and more prominent variegation compared to its predecessors. Its lavender flowers are produced in abundance May through September with the perfect proportion to its foliage and stems.
Sedum NOVA® 'Cherry Fizz': The new introduction is a trailblazer for big, beefy perennials with its incredible floral display of cherry pink flower heads.
Both new varieties and returning favorites are explorable via Terra Nova’s 2023-2024 “mini” plant catalog, which was collaboratively conceptualized by Terra Nova’s marketing team as an updated supplement to the company’s larger digital catalog from last year’s Cultivate show.
The 2023-2024 catalog supplement is digitally available at no cost on Terra Nova Nurseries’ website. Print copies can be requested through Terra Nova’s sales representatives or brokers as well as by visiting Terra Nova’s booth during Cultivate. Visit terranovanurseries.com for more information.
