Rose of Sharon - Blush Satin
Rose of Sharon - Blush Satin Rose of Sharon - Blush Satin, Hibiscus syriacus 'Mathilde' (PP12,660), is an upright attractive plant that produces soft pink flowers with a prominent red eye, and it is long blooming. Blush Satin is a tremendous improvement in hardy Hibiscus. It is a strong growing plant with lots of large, brightly colored blooms. A moderate grower, ‘Mathilde’ is also pollution-tolerant and prefers full sun and well-drained soil. This Blush Satin does best in full sun, but light shade is acceptable, especially in far southern or southwestern climates. It is very tolerant of heat and drought, but keep it well watered during growth. One's ability to shape Rose of Sharon also makes the shrub a prime candidate for hedges. Being a profuse bloomer, it not only blooms late, but leafs out late, as well. Blush Satin will add a subtle and lovely “blush” to your garden, especially when the other plants are beginning to fade. * Attractive shrub * Pollution tolerant * Lovely blooms

| Cotoneaster - 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 |
| Viburnum - Nannyberry - Sale Price: $54.25 Nannyberry Viburnum, viburnum lentago, is a hardy, upright growing shrub with glossy green foliage that turns red-purple in fall.
