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.

| Quince - Spreading - Sale Price: $57.05 Quince - Spreading, Chaenomeles japonica, is an adaptable, easy to grow deciduous thornless shrub that does best in full sun. Also referred to as the Japanese Flowering Quince, this shrub is tolerant of dry soils, and periodic pruning improves bloom. This sprawling plant has crowded gnarled branches and a low crooked habit. Old canes and suckers can be removed every year. The Spreading Quince needs ample room to ramble, so make sure other plants are not nearby that will be affected by its spreading habit. It has dark green foliage and pink to white flowers that appear in late spring or early summer. The leaves are untoothed, dark green above, and pale with a dense felt of grey wool beneath (especially when young). They turn a rich yellow in autumn. The fruits are light golden-yellow, green or orange, usually pear shaped, but sometimes round and apple-shaped. A quince is delicious stewed, baked, made into fruit butter and should not be eaten raw-- almost anything that can be done with apples can be done with quinces! |
