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.

Cotoneaster - Many-Flowered - Sale Price: $99.95 The Many-Flowered Cotoneaster, Contoneaster multiflorus, produces small white flowers in spring (fragrance unpleasant), bright red fruit in autumn, and leaves turn a yellow fall color. The flowers have five petals and sepals and are usually borne in clusters. Many-flowered Cotoneaster is one of the few cotoneasters useful for its flowers. Many-Flowered Cotoneaster flowers bloom in early spring, and the fruit ripens in September through October. This upright shrub has a fountain-like weeping branch habit and prefers a moist, well-drained soil; tolerates alkaline soil. Cotoneasters are widely cultivated for their attractive growth habit, small white to pink flowers, and small but showy red to black fruit. The shrub can be used as a hedge, bank cover, in groupings, or planted in a mass.

Heather - Sandy - Sale Price: $51.35 The Scotch Heather, Calluna vulgaris 'Sandy', is a mutation of the variety 'Melanie' and its bright yellow foliage resists the sun well. Sandy is a low-growing perennial evergreen ground cover or low shrub for sun; blooms during late summer. It is upright and wide, and has pure white, very resistant buds between September to December. The masses of white flower buds never open thereby remaining colorful from August until hard frost! Superb for alpine, rock or trough gardens. Sandy is a budbloomer which means that it is a form of Calluna in which the flowers never develop beyond the bud stage, but as a result, keep their color for a long period. It requires full sun and acid loving fertile well drained soil that is humus rich. Zones 5-7. * Great for rock gardens!

Arborvitae - Hetz Midget - Sale Price: $64.25 The Hetz Midget Arborvitae, Thuja occidentalis 'Hetz Midget', is a dense, slow growing evergreen that requires no shearing to maintain its naturally round, globe form. Being one of the smallest miniature landscape evergreens, with a very neat and tidy form, Hetz Midget Arborvitae can be used in a front row of layered foundation plantings or as an accent or border in perennial beds; also make a great informal hedge. It has fine rich green foliage during the summer that takes on a purple cast in the winter months. This arborvitae prefers sun to partial shade, moist, well-drained soil, and protection from strong winds. The tree is identified primarily by unique flat and filigree sprays made up of tiny, scaly leaves. The tree loves limestone areas and can take full sun to light shade. Being a very tough and durable plant, Hetz Midget makes a popular accent plant for mixed borders or containers! * Slow growing * Globe form * Year round interest
