Cornus kousa
'Ohkan'

Among the most exciting plants available this season include Cornus kousa 'Ohkan', a choice new kousa dogwood showcasing deep green leaves boldly margined with clean gold variegation. Picea pungens 'Spring Blast' is also a star boasting a spring flush of creamy-white needles followed by pewter-blue older growth. Equally as colorful are the graceful, long needles of the variegated Himalayan pine (Pinus wallichiana ‘Zebrina’) which are flecked and brushed with prominent yellow bands.

Hydrangea arborescens
'Green Dragon'

Native enthusiasts should find many noteworthy additions such as the keystone button bush (Cephalanthus occidentalis ‘Keystone’) which struts an abundance of spherical, creamy-white flowers in mid-summer. Not to be outdone, the unusual twisted and highly serrated foliage of Hydrangea arborescens 'Green Dragon' will delight those seeking out something a little different to add to the summer border. In addition, the ever impressive Cornus alternifolia Golden Shadows™ makes a return appearance with its jaw-dropping gold margined leaves and horizontal, tiered framework.

Acer pectinatum ssp. forrestii
'Alice'

Foliage continues to be one of our favorite plant qualities and like minded fanatics will be delighted to see a number of exciting offerings throughout the catalog. The choice Aralia elata ‘Silver Umbrella’ is back with its amazing 40” tropical-esk, bi-pinnately compound leaves each edged with a fine white margin. Not only is this stunner as rare as it gets but it also rivals any plant for foliage presence....period! Another noteworthy small tree is Acer pectinatum ssp. forrestii ‘Alice’ which flaunts deep green, 3-lobed leaves that are brushed with shrimp-pink and red coloration.

Eryngium bourgatii

Sticking with the foliage theme, our perennial selection is loaded with color as well! The sharp, prickly leaves of Eryngium bourgatiistand out in a crowd showcasing an exceptional pewter-blue and silver venation pattern. Equally impressive are the unusual, crinkled, variegated leaves of Polygonatum x hybridum ‘Grace Barker’ which are sure to impress in the shade garden. No discussion of foliage is complete without mentioning hostas! As you’ll see, we’ve added many fine selections this season including a range of forms showcasing varied foliage color as well as twisted and corrugated leaves. Among our favorites is Hosta x ‘Teeny Weenie Bikini’, a diminutive form with wedge-shaped leaves marked with pale yellow centers and emerald edges!

With all these choice plants available we’re sure you’ll find a few to take home. That said, GIFT CARDS are always available for those who wish to take the guess-work out of gift giving.
