Potentilla - Gold Drop
The Potentilla' Gold Drop', Potentilla fruticosa 'Gold Drop', also known as Buttercup Shrub or Shrubby Cinquefoil, displays attractive, yellow buttercup flowers all summer. Potentilla is a superb flowering shrub for northern gardens. It is tough and adaptable to many conditions except, it does not like wet soils. Gold Drop Potentilla is a deciduous shrub that does best in full sun and will flower all summer if trimmed in late June or July along with fertilizer and water. The flowers are borne atop the tips of the new growth. It is best to thin this plant in late winter by cutting back about one third of the stems near the ground (older stems only). Potentilla also serves as a butterfly nectar source and a host for butterfly larvae. It has an attractive green, copper fall color. Gold Drop is not particular about soil types or soil pH levels! Long flowering period!

Barberry - Crimson Pygmy - DetailsBarberry - Crimson Pygmy - Sale Price: $39.95
Like ‘Concorde,’ Crimson Pygmy is naturally small in stature, just about two feet tall and perhaps three feet wide. It has all of the characteristics you love in a landscape shrub: resistance to disease, deer and insects, and perhaps best of all, considering it’s a prickly plant, no pruning, unless you want to treat it as a topiary or downsize it. Excellent in the landscape border, in Japanese-themed gardens or as a frame for water features. Plant Crimson Pygmy against golds, yellows and deep greens for stark contrast, or as a companion to anything in the pink/rose spectrum for sheer beauty. Full sun, regular watering and soil that’s a bit on the acid side will serve this shrub well. After its root system is large and well established, it will only need watering during periods of drought. Zones 4-8.

Inkberry - Nordic - DetailsInkberry - Nordic - Sale Price: $64.25
The Inkberry 'Nordic Compact', Ilex glabra 'Chamzin', is an outstanding, carefree, and compact shrub that matures at 3 to 4 feet high and wide. The evergreen leaves are a deep lustrous green and glisten in sunlight. It is excellent for foundation, hedges, masses, and as an accent plant. It is best to follow a regular watering schedule during the first growing season to establish a deep, extensive root system. Feed with a general purpose fertilizer before new growth begins in spring. For a tidy, neat appearance, shear annually to shape. 'Nordic Compact' is well suited to low hedges, but single specimens can also be sheared for topiary-like precision form. Because of wind resistance, it makes an excellent choice that helps with snow drift. This Inkberry prefers moist, well-drained, slightly-acidic soils, rich in organic matter. It is tolerant of continually wet soils and can be easily pruned to maintain size and shape. The Nordic is a male plant so it does not produce fruit. This plant is tolerant of poorly drained soils.

Spiraea - Renaissance - DetailsSpiraea - Renaissance - Sale Price: $54.25
The Spirea 'Renaissance', Spirea vanhouttei 'Renaissance', has improved disease resistance. This bridalwreath-like plant shares the same arching displays of snow white flowers as its old time parent. Arching boughs blossom in mid to late spring and are stunning on cloudy days or in moonlight.  It makes a popular cut flower for wreath making. Renaissance is very effective as a specimen or as a dark green background shrub that turns orange-red in the fall.  This plant spreads out generously along fence lines and fills in foundation planting along large barren walls. This spirea tolerates a wide range of soil conditions and is very cold hardy. A deciduous shrub, it should be placed in full sun. * Fall color * Hardy * Disease resistance
