Monrovia’s 2016 new and exclusive plant introductions offer more of everything—from bigger blooms to compact size to water-wise—that we gardeners love. Check it out!
Here's a peek at our new selections for 2016. These twelve plants (more to come) were chosen for you by Monrovia because of their supersized characteristics such as larger and repeating blooms, compact size and habit, fuss-free nature, or intense fragrance.
Need something for shade? How about a double-flowered camellia with red-leafed new foliage. Want to freshen-up containers? We’ve got a series of flowery shorter clematis. Looking for the rare? Check out two new flowering vines from plant explorer Dan Hinkley. We're giving our plants an Oscar-worthy debut, too: watch this video then scroll down for more detailed information about each new plant and our take on what’s trending in 2016.
