Hang on to your hat - Temple of Bloom® seven-son flower is going to blow your mind! A staff favorite at Wasco, Temple of Bloom seven-son flower is a beautiful, easy to grow small tree which simply can't be matched for year-round beauty.
At the end of August, they begin to bloom a vibrant white. Then, after a few weeks, their flowers fall off. This exposes their vivid red bracts, giving them basically a second bloom! But that isn't all these plants have to offer. During the entire year, they have a wonderful, light-tan, peeling bark.
Come check out our great selection of Proven Winners Temple of Bloom Seven Sun Flower!
Photo 1 is of a young Seven Sun Flower planted behind the rear parking lot at Wasco Nursery. Photos 2-4 courtesy of Proven Winners - www.provenwinners.com

Our fall annual selection started arriving last week and will continue to grow every week.
Also, it’s time to start thinking about what you want to do for spring. Our spring blooming bulbs start arriving next week! It’s still a bit early to plant these, but it is good to get the varieties you want before they are gone.

I was there yesterday and you had some beautiful things. Especially the fixings for an outdoor planter. Beautiful premade ones also!
I wish I could have them all over my house and yard, my favorite trees.

Do you guys have price ranges for Fir 7-8ft
"I really do love this time of year. It’s a wonderful time to pause and reflect on all the goodness that has transpired during the previous season. This year we sold more than 5,000 trees (shade, ornamental and evergreen), more than 7,000 native plants (grasses, forbs, etc.) and countless shrubs, perennials, flowers, herbs and veggies. These plants will have an immediate and positive impact on the local ecosystem (and economy) by providing shade, soaking up storm water, providing food and shelter for birds, animals and insects and contributing immeasurable aesthetic beauty to our community. I entered my third decade at Wasco Nursery this past spring and I cannot begin to express how grateful I am for the connections I’ve made and for allowing all of us at Wasco the opportunity to serve you while we carry out our mission!"
-Matt Zerby, owner
Wasco Nursery's Mission Statement is to encourage the planting of trees, shrubs and other plants that inspire, delight and bring value to everyone and foster a more beautiful and sustainable environment for generations to come.
