Rhododendron - Korean - Sale Price: $106.95 Rhododendron - Korean, Rhododendron mucronulatum, is a shrub that is native to northern China, Korea, and Japan and develops an upright, rounded or oval habit. In mid spring, Korean Rhododendron produces stunning rosy purple flowers that are showy and widely funnel-shaped. This plant comes into bloom during the first warm spring weather, and the flowers open successively from clusters of buds at the end of the shoots before the leaves expand. The leaves are deciduous (shed in autumn), but they turn yellow and bronze before falling. This rhododendron requires partial to full shade and moist, well-drained soil; does best in acidic soil. Use the Korean Rhododendron for shrub borders, groupings, or mix with evergreens.

Rhododendron - Vulcan's Flame - Sale Price: $106.95 The Rhododendron 'Vulcan's Flame', 'Rhododendron 'Vulcans Flame’ is a vigorous, easy to grow plant with a broad, rounded habit. The fiery red flowers appear against the dark green foliage in late spring. It matures to 5 feet tall and 6 feet wide. Rhododendrons are shallow rooting so they require regular watering during the summer or during hot spells. To create a full, well-shaped shrub, pinch-off the new growth for the first few years. Vulcan’s Flame is an easy care rhododendron that needs excellent drainage, mulching and a peat moss soil additive. Roots will rot in poorly drained soil, so well-drained soil is a must! Established plants can benefit from fertilization. The Vulcan is heat and sun tolerant. An ideal location in colder zones is an area with filtered shade and some winter protection. If you want a red flowering rhododendron, this one is it!

Barberry - Intermedia - Sale Price: $106.95 Barberry - Intermedia, Berberis thunbergii var. atropurpurea ‘Intermedia’, is a Japanese Barberry shrub that is dense and spiny. Its growth is smaller and more compact and spreading than Redleaf Barberry. 'Intermedia' has a very uniform shape with excellent red color and red fruits. You can let it grow freely or trim it to maintain the shape and size you want. The thorns on the barberry shrub deter deer and other animals. The ‘Intermedia’ barberry plant makes a good specimen shrub, but is very valuable as a vandal proof hedge too. Barberry bushes are best located in full sun. This plant is tolerant of many types of soil, but will not do well in wet to very moist soils. As name Barberry implies, this makes an excellent hedge or filler shrub! * Deer resistant* Easy to grow* Drought tolerant

Weigela - Red Prince - Sale Price: $64.95 If you have a spot where you’d like to make a bold statement, plant a few classic ‘Red Prince’ weigela. Its purple-tinged mid-green foliage and deep red trumpet-shaped flowers will create quite a dramatic presence in your landscape. The showy flowers bloom in late spring/early summer and often again in August. This hardy shrub will eventually grow to person-height and needs little maintenance; just give it organic, well-drained soil in full sun and watch for hummingbirds, as ‘Red Prince’ is a beacon for them. Even when living in a drier soil and partial shade, this eye-catching weigela provides excellent color and contrast in most any setting; it’s particularly effective in a sunny border of mixed perennials and annuals. Zones 4-8.

Swamp Chestnut Oak - Sale Price: $71.35 The Swamp Chestnut Oak tree, Quercus michauxii, is known also as a Basket Oak for the baskets made from its wood, and Cow Oak because cows eat the acorns!

Making a good shade tree, Swamp Chestnut Oak also offers rich crimson colors in the fall! * Important timber tree * Produces acorns * Good shade tree
