Holly - Compact Japanese - DetailsHolly - Compact Japanese - Sale Price: $106.95
The Compact Japanese Holly, Ilex crenata 'Compacta', is a well-branched, somewhat oval-shaped, and compact shrub to 4 feet high and wide. It does well in neutral to acid soil. Plant this holly in mass groups as low shrubs, low hedges, or tall groundcovers. The compact habit of growth and small leaves make these ideal plants for use as clipped, formal hedges. Japanese Holly develops without clipping making it well suited for planting along a foundation. Plant 3 to 4 feet apart to form a hedge, plant farther apart if used in a shrub border. It shears fairly well, but will thin slightly toward the base, especially if not located in full sun. This compact holly can be sheared into various shapes. This plant is an evergreen and it is deer resistant! If you are using this plant as a hedge, clip the hedge so it is wider at the bottom. This will allow light to the bottom leaves and branches and will help keep the hedge full to the ground. Zones 6-9.

American Holly - DetailsAmerican Holly - Sale Price: $24.95
Traditional Holly with Striking Evergreen Foliage The American Holly (Ilex opaca) also called the White Holly or Christmas Holly, is the most familiar holly.  It is a small tree or shrub with striking evergreen foliage. The American Holly is easy to identify. It has thick, smooth, dark green, spiny leaves that are a yellowish green underneath. Unlike some hollies, the American Holly keeps its foliage from top to bottom for the life of the tree. Great for a privacy hedge and noise barrier, but its natural pyramidal shape also makes it a perfect ornamental tree for any yard. Because it does well in shade it is also a wonderful choice as an understory tree. This means if you’d like to fill in gaps between larger trees in your yard the American Holly can be planted under them. The flowers of the American Holly appear from April to June. Bundles of small white flowers are a beautiful contrast to the deep shiny foliage.  They are a delicate reminder in spring of the berries that will follow. The berries grow on your holly from September to November. The berries start out green, and then mature to a brilliant red. The American Holly will keep its dazzling display of deep red berries against emerald foliage through the winter.  You will love having fresh holly branches to decorate your house during the winter months, but you will also be doing a great service for the small animals and birds in your neighborhood. During the winter the American Holly is an important source of food for the birds, and provides a safe haven for shelter and nests in its thick foliage. The American Holly needs minimal watering and can grow in nearly any soil including hard clay. You will enjoy its dense green foliage all year. * Resists mildew, insects and disease* Drought resistant* Easily pruned.

Barberry - Sunjoyâ„¢ Gold Pillar - DetailsBarberry - Sunjoyâ„¢ Gold Pillar - Sale Price: $39.95
 Ornamental Shrub with Brilliant Foliage The Sunjoy Gold Pillar Barberry is a deciduous shrub with brilliant foliage. It would look great as a short hedge or border along a walkway. Your Sunjoy Gold Pillar Barberry is particularly prized for its bright yellow foliage that maintains its brilliance all summer long. The one inch leaves emerge in scarlet raiment when spring arrives, but quickly adopt their golden glory. When fall approaches they briefly return to their red origins, but this time with a decidedly brighter orange hue as well, which is quite spectacular to behold. The Barberry grows to about four feet tall in a wide columnar fashion. Light yellow flowers appear in the spring, but you may not notice them. They will however be useful in drawing pollinators to your yard. It’s very adaptable and tolerant of many conditions, so won’t require a lot of care from you. Another useful feature of this particular cultivar is that it won’t suffer leaf scorch like some other yellow Barberry will, making it a superior selection among Barberry choices. Barberry has a long history of medicinal uses dating back more than 2,000 years. It’s also sometimes used cosmetically and even in some crafts. No matter what the Sunjoy Gold Pillar Barberry is used for, none will compare to its use as an uncommonly beautiful addition to your landscape. * Outstanding foliage color* Low maintenance* Drought tolerant
