Lilac - Royalty Late Blooming Flowering Lilac The Royalty Lilac is a late blooming variety of the popular ornamental shrub. One would be terrific near a patio or deck where you can easily enjoy its exceptional beauty and fragrance. Lilacs are incredibly popular. They’ve been immortalized in poetry, literature and song for generations, and will certainly continue to be one of the most sought after plantings. Your Royalty Lilac is a particularly interesting variety as it has all of the outstanding features of Lilac shrubs, but with some added advantages. Your Royalty Lilac is a medium sized perennial shrub. It can grow to about 10 feet tall with an 8 foot spread. It’s compact and extremely hardy, including resistance to disease and deer. The dark green leaves are a bit coarser than some other Lilacs and create a particularly superior backdrop for the lighter lavender color of the flowers. The flower buds are decidedly darker than the light lavender blooms, which creates an enchanting two-toned effect. Perhaps most advantageous, your Royalty Lilac is a heavy bloomer that continues to bloom later into the summer than other Lilacs. Of course the fragrance of the Royalty Lilac is also incomparable and sure to reach across your yard and through your windows with its heavenly sweet scent. Be sure to cut some of the long panicles of flowers to bring inside. The flowers take well to being in a vase and will give several days of enjoyment. The Royalty Lilac is a stand-out among Lilacs and a must-have for your yard this summer. * Superior blooms and fragrance* Later bloom period than other Lilacs* Low maintenance

| 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. |
