Spiraea - Fritsch
Spiraea - Fritsch Spiraea - Fritsch, Spiraea fritschiana, is commonly called a Korean Spiraea. If you are looking for a summer-flowering shrub with great fall color, Fritsch Spiraea is it! It is a multi-stemmed deciduous shrub with a more or less rounded form. In the fall, the striking red, orange, and yellow serrated oval leaves glow even brighter than the fall color of oaks and maples! It has coarser foliage than others, and if sheared back in spring, it produces giant summer blooms. Provide this stunning shrub with full sun and well drained, average soil and you will enjoy its large, bold clusters of white flowers at the ends of the branches in early summer. The flowers are held over the large forest green foliage of this compact and refined bush. If you plant this Korean spiraea in groups, you will have an absolutely magnificent eye-catching garden display, especially in the fall! Since it tends to fill out right to the ground, it does not require facer plants in front.

| Pussy Willow - Black - Sale Price: $49.95 Pussy Willow - Black, Salix gracilistylus ‘Melanostachys’ is a quick growing shrub with flowers/catkins that form along the stems of the plant. The procession of black catkins resembling little black caterpillars can range from a half-inch to two inches in length, starting small early in the season, then lengthening and changing color as they mature. The female catkins stay flat black until well-expanded, but males will add a fine-textured, silky red to orange staminate haze. Black Pussy Willow will spread aggressively by underground roots and above ground suckers, but you can prune this plant pretty severely to keep it in check. The nearly toothless leaves on the upper surface are deep green, the lower a soft gray-green. The leaves often take on a tattered appearance by fall; tree will occasionally produce a yellow fall color display. Although it does not like standing water, the Black Pussy Willow does like to have water nearby. Planting it in full sun will help keep some of the fungal problems in check. It is quite tolerant of many soil types as well as moderate road salt and pollution exposure. The branches, along with the catkins, can make elegant and divine bouquets. |
