It would make an impressive specimen plant for your yard, or plant several in a side or back yard to encourage wildlife. Your Variegated Elderberry is valued for its delicious berries, but perhaps even more often grown for its ornamental features. The pinnate, green leaves are adorned with showy edging that starts out golden-yellow and later softens to a creamy-yellow hue. The affect is striking, creating a soft, elegant appearance for your home landscape. In the spring, your Elderberry’s branches will be graced by 5-8 inch, flat clusters of scented, white flowers which later develop into black berries. Those berries are delicious in wines, preserves or other culinary dishes. The Elderberry also has a long history of medicinal uses. One of the best features of your Variegated Elderberry is that it’s a veritable magnet for wildlife. Butterflies and other pollinators love it spring through summer, and birds (and other wildlife), will flock to it in the fall for the tasty berries. The Elderberry can grow up to 12 feet tall and wide. It’s fast-growing, multi-stemmed shrub with a rounded nature. It’s quite hardy and won’t require any special care. The Variegated Elderberry is a hardy shrub with decorative leaves, showy spring flowers, delicious berries and wildlife appeal. All in all, it’s a shrub with a great deal to offer. * Decorative leaves* Edible berries* Spring flowers* Wildlife appeal

| Pussy Willow - Black - Sale Price: $49.95 Pussy Willow - Black, Salix gracilistylus ‘Melanostachys’ is a quick growing shrub with flowers/catkins that form along the stems of the plant. The procession of black catkins resembling little black caterpillars can range from a half-inch to two inches in length, starting small early in the season, then lengthening and changing color as they mature. The female catkins stay flat black until well-expanded, but males will add a fine-textured, silky red to orange staminate haze. Black Pussy Willow will spread aggressively by underground roots and above ground suckers, but you can prune this plant pretty severely to keep it in check. The nearly toothless leaves on the upper surface are deep green, the lower a soft gray-green. The leaves often take on a tattered appearance by fall; tree will occasionally produce a yellow fall color display. Although it does not like standing water, the Black Pussy Willow does like to have water nearby. Planting it in full sun will help keep some of the fungal problems in check. It is quite tolerant of many soil types as well as moderate road salt and pollution exposure. The branches, along with the catkins, can make elegant and divine bouquets. |
