There are so many perennial plants and flowers that start with the letter 'A' that it is hard to pick just a few favorites. One of the most popular ferns we sell is also a Plant Delights intro, Athyrium 'Godzilla'. Another PDN intro and one of Tony's favorite milkweeds is Asclepias angustifolia 'Sonoita', a wonderful host plant for Monarch butterflies.
