Barberry - 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.

Juniper - Blue Point - Sale Price: $64.25 Cold Hardy Privacy Evergreen The Juniper 'Blue Point', Juniperus chinensis 'Blue Point', has a medium-sized pyramidal growth habit with extremely dense branching and provides beautiful blue-green foliage. 'Blue Point' withstands drought and windy conditions better than most upright junipers. This hardy juniper has a beautiful color and solid structure that remains throughout the winter months. It is extremely dense in full sun, a little less dense in partial shade locations. 'Blue Point' prefers average to slightly acidic and sandy soil that needs to be well drained. An annual trimming will keep a neat yet natural-like form. Plant this 'Blue Point' where it will create a prominent focal point in your landscape!

Cotoneaster - Hedge - Sale Price: $18.95 Hedge Cotoneaster, 'Cotoneaster lucidus', is an upright shrub that withstands pruning well, and it makes an excellent hedge because of its height and clean, glossy foliage. The small pink flowers in spring are followed by small black fruit in late summer. The dark green foliage turns yellow to red in the fall. It likes full sun; prefers a moist, well-drained soil, but can tolerate dryness; is wind tolerant; tolerates alkaline soil, and somewhat tolerant of salt. Hedge Contoneaster's excellent dense screen is good for hedges, bank covers, groupings, and wildlife habitat or shelterbelt filler. The birds appreciate the bright red fruits, turning deep red/black in autumn.

Sumac - Staghorn - Sale Price: $64.20 The Staghorn Sumac, Rhus typhina, is the most well-known sumac. Its branches resemble deer antlers. Staghorn sumac reaches 25 feet in height at maturity with an equal spread. It is not as tolerant of poorly drained soils as other sumacs. The large dark crimson - or rarely orange to yellow - pinnate leaves of this sumac have 15-31 narrow, leaflets that can be up to (6) long. The stems and fruits of Staghorn Sumac are densely hairy, as in the velvet stage of a stag's antlers. These colorful, nonpoisonous shrubs or small trees are rhizomatous. The large clumps form bright splashes of color along forest margins, road banks, and fencerows and in old fields over much of the Appalachians.

Burning Bush - Emerald Gaiety - Sale Price: $85.65 The Euonymus 'Emerald Gaiety', Euonymus f. 'Emerald Gaiety', has deep green leaves edged in sparkling white. The leaves are tinged with pink in winter. This evergreen shrub has a dense erect habit and is excellent for small hedges and foundation plantings. Plant in full sun. Emerald Gaiety can become a climber if supported. It does not like high winds but is otherwise very hardy. It does well under most light conditions from full sun to fairly deep shade. The flowers are easy to miss, but it can produce quite showy red inedible berries. Zones 5-9. * Variegated!
