We like the Georgia Trials because it is hot and humid there just like it is here! The item to the left is a new Heliotropium that looked fantastic. We will be looking to trial that ourselves this year! The item to the right is one of very few red petunias that does |  |

Asiatic Lilies are the Late Bloomers of Spring
Asiatic Lilies are our most popular lilies because they are so easy to care for. Simply plant your Lily outside either in the ground or in a pot and enjoy their large vibrant blooms. With little maintenance these lilies will flourish. They need approximately one inch of water per week, so if it doesn't rain often, be sure to water them regularly to keep them healthy.
Asiatic Lilies are hard to miss with their large, impressive blooms. We offer the classic pink and the fun yellow which look great when planted separate or mixed together. An added bonus is they attract hummingbirds and butterflies, so they make an appealing addition to any butterfly garden.
These gorgeous flowers add a burst of color to and landscape and compliment any decor. Asiatic Lilies are sure to add a colorful burst to your home weather you plant them in a pot, in your landscaping, or in your butterfly garden. Go to our Products page to see more about Asiatic Lilies.

Just Like our Plants We are Always Growing
Rockwell Farms is expanding once again, we are adding on a new covered greenhouse loading dock. This will ensure that our plants are in the best environment from the time they are planted until the time they reach our customers. By adding this additional space we are able to pull our shipments earlier and have a great place to store them for the short time period before they are loaded on our trucks.
Here at Rockwell Farms we strive to deliver superior quality products and are always looking for new ways to ensure that we meet these goals.
