Cotinus 'Grace' $12.95
Purple Smoke Bush
Cotinus is one of the most lovely plants in our garden. It is an absolute must as a pairing with hydrangea, both in the garden bed and when cutting stems to display indoors. This gem was hybridized by Peter Drummer at Hiller Nurseries in Winchester, United Kingdom. It's a cross between our native species C. obovatus and C. 'Velvet Cloak'. The new leaves emerge intense wine-red then mature to a beguiling dusky reddish-blue. Summer brings an explosion of large panicles covered in deep pink florets. Autumn follows with a show of bright orange-red foliage color. Place in partial to full shade and allow to mature to a large shrub.
This vivid little hydrangea makes a big impression all while staying compact for the smallest of garden spaces. A tidy plant which produces armfuls of ball-shaped, pink-toned blooms against dark green, glossy leaves. Hardy, reliable and easy to grow. No matter how full you may think your garden is, you can squeeze this one in.
We think our female Skimmia clone is, more than likely, a dwarf selection, as it has never exceeded 24ö in height, while remaining dense and handsome. Because it grows side by side with a male suitor, it sets astoundingly good, brilliant red fruit. This is held for an enormously long time throughout winter, spring, and even summer, when even I get a bit tired of its sickeningly sweet and cheery disposition. Plant in bright shade in well-drained, but humusy, acidic soil. Overhead watering will diminish its propensity to suffer from spider mites.
An outstanding new selection of Pagoda dogwood with bright golden-yellow variegated foliage. A bold gold margin surrounds the emerald green center of each hosta-shaped leaf. In the spring, the new growth is often infused with hints of red. Introduced by the superb plantsman, Walter Stackman from Lake Geneva, IL. Best in partial shade.
The deciduous, variegated, Five-fingered Aralia is among the top 10 plants here that we value for effective summer foliage. In shaded situations, it brightens with its clean white emargined leaves, on stems to 6 ft. over a period of years. Striking growing next to the deep blue mopheads of Hydrangea macrophylla æHamburgÆ.
A prolific and dependable Japanese cultivar with large lavender-blue flowers consistently produced on sturdy stems. Early flowering; best performance in a slightly shaded position.
