Potentilla - McKays White
Ornamental, Long-Blooming Shrub The McKays White Potentilla is an ornamental shrub that provides flowers all summer long. Several would look outstanding lining a walkway, or even just one in the background of a perennial bed would be lovely. Your McKays White Potentilla is a dense, multi-stemmed shrub with a rounded nature. What sets it apart from other landscape shrubs is its delicate foliage and long bloom period. The dark green compound leaves are delicate and somewhat ferny in appearance, drawing the eye even without the showy flowers. The blooms arrive in late spring. The saucer-shaped white blossoms display themselves on the ends of the branches right up until the first frost. Your Potentilla will grow to 24 inches tall with an equal spread. It can live up to 30 years in the right conditions, and is adaptable to almost any situation. It’s quite hardy, requiring little or no care from you, and also disease and pest resistant. As your Potentilla ages, you’ll notice the bark on the branches may peel, creating an additional decorative accent for your landscape. With its long lasting blooms it also appeals to butterflies and other pollinators which is sure to be an asset to your yard. It’s hard to imagine a more advantageous small shrub than the McKays White Potentilla. Its unique foliage, lovely, long-lasting flowers and hardy nature combine to make it an outstanding choice for almost any landscape. * Long-blooming flowers* Unique foliage* Hardy

Hydrangea - Late Panicle - Tree Form - DetailsHydrangea - Late Panicle - Tree Form - Sale Price: $107.05
The Hydrangea 'Late Panicle', Hydrangea paniculata 'Tardiva', has white airy flowers that can reach 10-12 in length in late August. The flowers are a mixture of sterile and fertile flowers which gives the flowers less density and less likelihood to tip or droop. Flowers will turn bronze in fall. This stunning, tree form hydrangea is fast growing and is great for informal screens. It makes a wonderful show piece for any yard, and you can even use the blooms for cut arrangements. It is a hardy, low maintenance ornamental that requires little pruning. If you need to trim it for shaping purposes, it is best to do it in early spring for most zones.

Barberry - Concorde - DetailsBarberry - Concorde - Sale Price: $32.95
Commonly known as Japanese Barberry, this compact little shrub’s burgundy-colored foliage is a dramatic —and welcome— contrast in a landscape dominated by green everything-else. ‘Concorde’ has very small teardrop-shaped leaves on thorny branches which form an orderly round plant that tops out at not much more than a couple of feet. Use ‘Concorde’ as a foundation planting or berm or border edging, and in any number of other small, sunny spaces where you need a plant of a different color. Full sun keeps the leaves their pretty royal purple color, which will gently turn deep red in the fall, and through the winter you’ll be treated to lovely red berries. A slightly acidic soil will benefit this slow-growing, pest-free shrub (which is also hypo-allergenic and resistant to deer, drought and disease). To tilt the pH, just tap a few nails into the soil under the shrub canopy. Pruning is only required to change its shape or overall size. Zones 4-8. There is always space for Concorde in any landscape, and it will look terrific in yours as well. Plant in full sun.

Plant this yucca in full sun and in a well-drained area. ‘Color Gard’ looks great in a subject garden or in containers and is also a butterfly attractor.  Once established, it needs only occasional watering. In the winter months, the foliage turns pink. The red coloration on the long blades highlight the flowering crown, so 'Color Gard' offers year round appeal. * Outstanding focal point! * Low maintenance. * Allergy free.
