Gomphrena Gallery

Gomphrenas galore

You may have noticed we’ve developed a fondness for gomphrena, and why wouldn’t we? This plant has so much to offer—it’s a great low-maintenance, no-maintenance choice. It doesn’t want to be soggy wet, but aside from that gomphrena doesn’t ask for anything. There’s no deadheading.

This Diefenbacher exclusive has become a tradition for many customers, we know—but it’s a tradition for us, too.

At Christmastime the Big Red Guy gets all the credit and so do poinsettias. Well, Santa has his elves and we have our components that help shape our poinsettia arrangements into special displays for the holidays. Here is a list of supporting plants we use and what they bring to the table:
