Spirea - Shirobana
The Spirea Shirobana, 'Spiraea japonica 'Shirobana', is a very interesting, and attractive summer blooming spirea with a handsome, mounding growth habit. This spirea variety commonly displays three different colored blooms all on the same shrub - and all at the same time!  Flower heads appear in deep rose, pastel pink, and white as well. The lustrous deep green foliage of this spirea forms a handsome mound 2 to 3 feet tall.  The Shirobana begins blooming in late spring and continues off and on through the summer. Use this small shrub a an accent in the border, a low hedge or for mass plantings.  For a formal appearance, shear this plant annually after flowering. It is best to prune ‘Shirobana’ after flowering except for removing dead branches.  Flowering can be intensified and prolonged through regular trimming of expired flower heads. * Three-colored flowering * Attractive plant * Long blooming

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.
