Witch-hazel - Common - Sale Price: $64.25 The Common Witch-Hazel, Hamamelis virginiana, is extraordinary in its flowering habits. It flowers in late October to early December. Many times its slender yellow petals are the only signs of color in the dormant woods. Witch-hazel is pollinated by the winter moth. After pollination, the fruits become dormant for the winter, developing over the following growing season and maturing in the fall, 10-12 months after pollination. Seeds are dispersed by gravity, or are eaten and excreted by birds. Witch-hazel seeds germinate the following spring or enter the seed bank. Early growth is slow, and in fact remains slow throughout the life of the tree in its typical shady habitat. As individuals, witch-hazel probably does not live more than 100 years, but they reproduce from root sprouts, and clones may live for a very long time.

Lilac - President Grevy - Sale Price: $38.95 President Grevy Lilac, Syringa vulgaris 'President Grevy', is an upright, vigorously growing French Hybrid Lilac with double, lilac-blue, fragrant flowers that are produced on large panicles in May.

President Grevy Lilac prefers full sun, good drainage and air circulation. If one removes flowers as they fade, as well as older wood and suckers, it will improve the plants appearance and flower production. President Grevy Lilac can be used in many situations, including shrub borders, informal hedges and perennial borders. It is a good bloomer, deciduous and a fast grower, reaching 10-12 feet tall and spreading to 8 feet wide. Being very showy and extremely fragrant, it makes a wonderful screen or border specimen. * Fragrant! * Fast Growing!

Honeysuckle - Miniglobe - Sale Price: $20.95 Miniglobe Honeysuckle, Lonicera x xylosteoides 'Miniglobe', is a naturally compact plant that has dense blue-green foliage and the small white flowers produce inconspicuous red fruit. This plant makes an excellent foundation plant or it can be used as a low hedge. A low maintenance xeriscape plant, Miniglobe has outstanding dense foliage on a compact hardy shrub. Miniglobe is excellent for formal hedging and drought tolerant, this honeysuckle has improved hardiness, compact growth and superior foliage. It grows 3-4 feet in height and width. Honeysuckles are easy to grow, vigorous, heat-tolerant, and nearly indestructible. The flashy and fragrant flowers will attract hummingbirds and butterflies all summer long. Many honeysuckles will thrive in containers as well. If pruning or shearing is needed, do it in late winter or very early spring. Miniglobe does well in an urban setting. It grows well in most soil types and pH levels. It does not like standing water areas. If you are looking for a small, compact honeysuckle, this is the one!

Lilac - Josee - Sale Price: $51.35 Lilac Josee, Syringa 'Josee', is an outstanding variety with a dwarf habit, reblooming flowers, and superb mildew resistance. At just 4-6' tall and wide, 'Josee' is the perfect choice for smaller gardens, or even in large patio containers! The delightfully fragrant, lavender-pink flowers erupt into bloom in late spring. Unlike other lilacs though, the show is not over in easy summer! Syringa 'Josee' will surprise northern gardeners with reliable rebloom all summer and fall and southern gardens may get a flush of rebloom in the fall! Best in a fertile, slightly alkaline soil with good drainage. Mulch to retain soil moisture; lightly prune immediately after flowering to encourage re-bloom and maintain compact habit.
