Friendly Blooms with Benefits...
The St John’s Wort takes low maintenance to a whole new level because after it’s planted it won’t need any attention. It’s drought tolerant, heat resistant, cold hardy, and pest resistant. Nothing stops this plant from thriving, we’ve even seen it come back after being mowed over.
For centuries the St John’s Wort has been cultivated for its believed healing properties. The ancient Greeks collected it to ward off evil spirits and it was annually collected on the eve of St John’s day to chase away evil with its bright healing colors.
Today the healing properties are found in the blooms in leaves because their oil provides relief from various skin conditions. The flowers also serve as an anti-inflammatory. Pick a few leaves and blooms and toss them in a salad for all-natural pain relief.
The Blue Velvet™️ St John’s Wort is a vibrant flowering shrub that has a light blue tint to its semi evergreen foliage. It has radiant yellow blooms and the ability to grow anywhere, even in poor, dry soils.
By planting a Blue Velvet™️ St John’s Wort you will be adding three months of vibrant color to your landscape. In the early summer the St John’s Wort erupts with tons of large, bright yellow blossoms that last until August.
For a smaller shrub that only gets to about 3 feet tall, and two feet wide the St John’s wort has big color that can fit anywhere. It’s perfect for lining borders or driveways in smaller areas where larger shrubs would take over.
Place your St John’s Wort anywhere where color is missing. They will thrive in containers, shaded areas, and under trees. The St John’s Wort is the miracle ground cover plant that will grow anywhere.

St John’s Wort..
It’s doing

Just Another Winner from Fast Growing Trees
I love these and have high hopes for them. I will say that the ones I got were extremely rootbound; yet, I managed to save 3 out of 4, and they are really looking great. I'm telling you, I love this company, the product, quality, and the people so much that I have ordered far too much .... for a small beach lot ... and with a severe spine injury, nothing stops me from planting these gorgeous trees and bushes. I can't click the recommend button; yet, yes, I do!

St John's Wort Plant
The plant arrived just as described. The packaging totally protected the plant in the delivery process. I have had one branch die off but that could easily be due to stress. The plant is flourishing in it's new home. I can't wait to see how it does over time.

Exceptional Specimen Quality
Costly, but worth the added Expense
