Season-long blooms and evergreen foliage for your sunniest locations

Looking for vibrant color that keeps on giving? Fire Chief™ Arborvitae and Orange Garden Jewels™ Gerbera Daisy combine for a one-two punch of vivid foliage and blooms that last from the earliest days of spring until autumn’s final curtain call. Unlike other gerberas, the Garden Jewels™ Daisy series is tough and offers strong pest/disease resistance and cold-hardiness to zone 7. With fiery orange petals, Orange Garden Jewels™ Gerber Daisy partners beautifully with the rustic orange hue of Fire Chief™ Arborvitae. But the color doesn’t stop there – the bright foliage of Fire Chief™ Arborvitae holds true in fall. Set these beauties against a backdrop of Baby Gem™ Boxwood and you have four seasons of style and structure.
