Hydrangea - Blue Bunny - Sale Price: $39.95 Named a Proven Winner. A very special hydrangea, this one. Blue Bunny™ produces a copious number of charming blue-and-white lacecap flowers from late summer until frost, and will reliably do so year after year. Even the elegant, rounded buds are lovely. ‘Blue Bunny’ is also sought-after because of its unusual fuzzy leaves, which add texture and interest to the planting area. Unlike some other pink and blue varieties, the flower color is not at all affected by the soil pH. In general, hydrangeas require even moisture and need good drainage. For the best flower display, feed in early spring with a slow-release fertilizer that is designed especially for trees and shrubs, and if it needs shaping, prune just after flowering. This plant is most effective in groups, in the border, in hedges or in a woodland garden. Asexual propagation prohibited. Zones 6-9

Sumac - Fragrant - Sale Price: $57.05 The Fragrant Sumac, Rhus aromatica, is a small shrub, most commonly encountered on limestone uplands, occasionally on acidic sites. It occasionally reaches tree size. Fragrant sumac is a pioneer species, establishing rapidly from seed after heavy disturbance, particularly fire. Like other sumacs, it forms clonal clumps, but not as extensively as the other species. Fragrant sumac is a short-lived pioneer, which reproduces from seed or clonally via root suckers. Seed production is moderately abundant, and seeds are dispersed by birds. Lifespan is about 20-30 years, though clones can live substantially longer. Fruit is important as winter bird food. This is an important deer browsing species. The fruits, steeped in cool water, yield a refreshing drink, like lemonade. Native Americans used the bark of all sumacs as an astringent, and leaves and bark can be used for tanning leather, due to the high tannin content.

Viburnum - Brandywineâ„¢ - Sale Price: $39.95 Viburnum Brandywine™, Viburnum nudum 'Bulk', offers an incredible display of berries that is virtually unmatched by any other shrub! ‘Brandywine’ bears huge clusters of round berries that begin green, turn white, and finally display many bright shades of pink and blue.  Irresistible to birds, the dazzling multicolored clusters of berries appear in the fall and persist into winter. The showy, glossy leaves change to incredible dark maroon-red in autumn. Providing three seasons of beauty, Brandywine makes a nice hedge with its compact shape and heavy, dark green foliage. The spectacular show of berries and the fall color of ‘Brandywine’ will create a magnificent and pleasing display all season. * Colorful berries * Fall color

Juniper - Gold Lace - Sale Price: $64.25 The Juniper 'Gold Lace' PP8202, Juniperus chinensis pfitzeriana 'Gold Lace', is a new golden Pfitzer Juniper that is probably the most golden of all. It has a compact habit that does not grow out-of-bounds. The golden tones reach the center of the plant resulting in less green color. The gold color intensifies in fall and winter. You cannot find a better color and contrast! This is an absolutely stunning juniper with its dark forest green foliage and showing a vibrant yellow color at the tips of its branches. The golden yellow coloration is best displayed in full sun locations, and will tone down considerably during the winter months. 'Gold Lace' is very hardy and has a moderate to fast growth. Pruning prior to bud break in spring or shortly after the hardening off of new growth is best. Gold Lace is an excellent choice to use as contrast to dark evergreen plant.

Dogwood - Red Twigged - Sale Price: $54.25 Whether you call it a Redtwig, Redstem, Redosier or Red Osier, this stunning dogwood’s red winter bark just make the winter a lot less dreary. It is perfect for a shady spot, near a tree line or on the north side of a house, but will do equally well in full sun as a hedge or in a group. Needs attentive watering; leaves can wilt in very hot sun, which may be mistaken for thirstiness. The red-twigged dogwood offers interest year-‘round: milky white flowers in spring, then soothing green foliage in spring and summer, cabernet-wine colored leaves in fall, and its signature deep red bark in winter. In early spring, cut the shrub back to four to six inches from the ground to ensure a perennial show of red stems over the coming winters. The clustered fruits are low in sugar, which birds seem to like more than deer; in fact, this shrub is the favored nesting place of American goldfinches. Zones 3-7. * Lots of winter interest!
