Benken is so excited to introduce some brand new 'Spotlight Plants' for the growing season! 

We've curated a selection of new plants that we've started for you and we think you're really going to love them in your garden!

Fills larger pot sizes than many other early-Spring crops. Heads will turn at retail with masses of vivid blooms above rounded, compact foliage.
