Boxwood - Koreanes
The Boxwood, Korean, Buxus sinica var. insularis, is a dense, compact, many-branched, broad, mounded evergreen shrub with a loose and open habit. It has evergreen leaves that turn yellow-brown to purplish in winter. It prefers full sun to partial shade; mulch to keep root system cool and moist; the evergreen foliage needs to be protected from drying winds, especially in winter. Korean Boxwood is a slow-growing, compact shrub that is best used as a hedge or foundation plant. May be massed or used as a specimen or accent and in formal gardens or shrub borders. Korean Boxwood is easily sheared into precise shapes. It is often used to line driveways. Formerly known as, and sometimes still sold as, Buxus microphylla var. koreana. Zones 5-9. Be Creative/Shape it Yourself!

Dogwood - Red Twigged - DetailsDogwood - Red Twigged - Sale Price: $54.25
Whether you call it a Redtwig, Redstem, Redosier or Red Osier, this stunning dogwood’s red winter bark just make the winter a lot less dreary. It is perfect for a shady spot, near a tree line or on the north side of a house, but will do equally well in full sun as a hedge or in a group. Needs attentive watering; leaves can wilt in very hot sun, which may be mistaken for thirstiness. The red-twigged dogwood offers interest year-‘round: milky white flowers in spring, then soothing green foliage in spring and summer, cabernet-wine colored leaves in fall, and its signature deep red bark in winter. In early spring, cut the shrub back to four to six inches from the ground to ensure a perennial show of red stems over the coming winters. The clustered fruits are low in sugar, which birds seem to like more than deer; in fact, this shrub is the favored nesting place of American goldfinches. Zones 3-7. * Lots of winter interest!
