Double Flowering Plum
A familiar sight across the northeast quarter of the U.S in May is the Double Flowering Plum, a cold-hardy shrub that puts on quite a show with its gorgeous double candy-pink flowers blanketing each branch with blooms. It tends toward a round shape, is a robust grower and will withstand wind and cold winters well. The foliage is more of a medium grass-green than dark green, and turns to an attractive yellow-bronze color in the fall. The Double Flowering Plum can take a lot of abuse in terms of soil condition, but it does need good sun, good drainage and ample room to perform at its best. It can also be pruned and trained into a tree form. The Double Flowering plum does not produce fruit and it does not tolerate road salt. Zones 3-8 Gorgeous Flowers!

Cotoneaster - Tom Thumb Creeping - DetailsCotoneaster - Tom Thumb Creeping - Sale Price: $64.25
The Tom Thumb Creeping Cotoneaster, Cotoneaster adpressus 'Tom Thumb', is an interesting, very dwarf, very dense and compact ground cover-type shrub. It has a unique appeal because of its very shiny, small leaves that turn a brilliant red-crimson in the autumn. 'Tom Thumb' rarely produces flowers and fruit, but when it occurs the blooms are small, pinkish-white. Then the very small, ¼, red fruits follow. This cotoneaster spreads by rooting in where the branches touch the soil. Its branches are opposite along the stem so creates a herringbone effect or pattern. 'Tom Thumb' is a true dwarf, not only in that it remains very close to the ground, but even the leaves are tinier than the species. This low-maintenance miniature woody shrub prefers dry soil (within reason) and full sun, though it will do well enough in partial shade. It is a very charming plant and it is deer resistant. Zones 4-7. * Dense * Low-Growing * Low Maintenance 

Hydrangea - Phantom - DetailsHydrangea - Phantom - Sale Price: $99.95

The large flower heads on this Peegee type hydrangea start out ivory and progress to white with pinkish tips. Tending to be a bit leggy and with a two foot clearance from the ground, Phantom hydrangea will grow to be about 10 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 10 feet; suitable for planting under power lines. This hydrangea shrub performs well in both full sun and full shade. It shouldn't be allowed to dry out so the soil needs to be kept moist. Being highly tolerant of urban pollution, Phantom will even thrive in inner city environments. It is best to apply thick mulch around the plant to protect it in exposed locations or colder zones. Producing the fullest flower heads of any hydrangea, Phantom has stems that are much sturdier and thicker than other past hydrangea and does not flop under the heavy weight of its oversized blooms. This multi-stemmed deciduous shrub will certainly standout in any landscape either as an accent plant or when planted in mass!
