Below is a small, representative list of the many plants and shrubs available for your Portable Party Garden. We invite you to call and come to our nursery to browse and wander and see first hand what Portable Party Gardens can do for you.

Early Spring:
April, May events may include evergreens such as:

Narrow Sky Pencil Boxwood

Low Rounded Common Boxwood

Smooth Leaved Holly or Inkberry

Upright Yew

These plants can be used throughout the season.

Late Spring:
As the weather gets warmer and annuals and perennials begin to flower, we are able to offer:

Multi-color Impatiens

Blue Salvia

Pink and White Claome

a variety of Colius

Purple Gay Feather or Liatrus

Black Eyed Susan

Tall Verbena add an airy touch to a Portable Garden.

As much as flowers make a garden, foliage plants draw and carry the eye.

Silvery White Dusty Miller

Exotic Elephant Ear

Heart Shaped Caladium

as well as a number of Hostas

Summer & Early Fall
Mid June through mid September is the height of garden season. This is when shrubs are in their glory:

Blue and White Nantucket Hydrangea

Pink and Rose Spirea

Yellow St. Johns Wort

White Potentilla

Rose and White Summer Sweet

Pink Butterfly Bush

Common Privet

Grasses add magnificent texture and movement to your event.

Tall Maiden Hair Grass

Dwarf Fountain Grass


Feather Reed Grass

Mid & Late Fall
The grasses are just beginning to flower. Mums and sedums are in full flower, and although many of the aforementioned plants have lost their flowers, their leaves and foliage still create a beautiful sight.

Our gardens include a touch of whimsey with an occasional piece of garden art. These may include a colored gazing ball or two. Nautical weather vanes, grapevine topiary and free standing stone all add an organic connection within the garden setting.

Any of the varieties listed above are available for purchase for inclusion in your garden through C.A. Dragon Landscaping.
