Full Annuals List
Please find here our full list of annual offerings throughout the seasons. Colonial prides itself in offering a huge selection of plants for our customers to choose from. Please note that this is a list of what we intend to carry over the course of the year. Our selection is dependent upon our grower availability and will change frequently. We ask that folks do not call with questions about certain colors of plants being in stock. As we do not hold plants, the answer can change between when you call and when you arrive. It is best to stop in if you get the chance and to follow our newsletter for weekly updates on new arrivals.
