Fruits Fruiting plants add so much to the home or garden. Not only are they delicious, but they often have lovely flowers, interesting foliage, and appealing fragrance in addition to fruit. Many are "self-fertile"—they need no male pollinator—and are all long-lived and attractive season after season.

Vaccinium 'Pink Lemonade' �New

PP#11,057. Enjoy delicious, soft, black-greenskinned avocados indoors twice a year with this evergreen dwarf! This vigorous, pest-free Mexican native self-pollinates after winter blooms, and the fruit ripens year-round (allow up to 14 months for first crop). Great for patios, bring indoors before first frost. Bareroot.

The World's only Pink Blueberry!

(Vaccinium hybrid.) The ideal ornamental edible, 'Pink Lemonade' offers year-round beauty for the sunny border! In spring, the glossy green foliage is set with small, sweetly fragrant shell-pink blooms. By May in most climates, the first crop of berries is dotting this dense, well-branched shrub. The mid-sized fruit begins pale green, then blushes pink before ripening to deep rose.

Glossy and firm, the fruit has a mild, sweet bite.

Successive crops arise on this Highbush until mid-fall, when the foliage begins turning from green to yellow, gold, and finally reddish-orange.

Even in winter, russet-red bare stems keep 'Pink Lemonade' interesting. Grow as you would any other blueberry, in well-drained, rich, acidic soil.

Self-fertile. Cannot ship to CA, OR, WA, MI. Limited Quantities Available.

Mespilus germanica 'Royal' — Medlar Strangely impossible to find in this country, this beautiful tree is tailor-made for the American garden. Structure is picturesque—low and wide-spreading, with lovely crooked brances, rarely exceeding 20 feet in as many years. Masses of heavenly white to light pink flowers in early summer are followed by unusual 1½ inch fruits that are a favorite in Europe for jelly. Fruits can be eaten out-of-hand when soft; flavor is somewhat like applesauce. Bareroot.

Grow grapes on the patio with this superb gourmet dessert variety, which is not only delicious but exceptionally vigorous and disease-resistant!

Glenora grapes are large, seedless, blue-black fruits with very thin skin, firm but tender flesh, and an abundance of sweet juice that contrasts nicely with the unique hint of spice in the bite.

They arise abundantly following masses of tiny white blooms, beginning the grape season early.

Resistant to Phylloxera (the devastating disease that nearly destroyed Europe's grape crops) and to mildew, they grow and bear plentifully despite heat, humidity, and even poorly fertile soil. Prune to 8 feet tall and desired width. 1-gallon container.

A delicious all-around midseason seedless white grape,'Marquis' was developed by Cornell University and is earlier than Concord, more coldtolerant than most others, and very heavy-bearing.

The large, round berries ripen on long, tightlypacked clusters of about 60 on vigorous vines that spread up to 8 feet wide. Resistant to Botrytis and self-fertile (so you need plant only one vine), 'Marquis' yields 15 to 20 pounds of high-sugar, low-acid fruit a year. 1-gallon container.

Ornamental Trees Trees create a feeling of permanence in the landscape, offering structure and architectural interest.

When selecting cultivars, bear in mind all of the ornamental criteria to consider, including overall form or growth habit; flowers and fruit; foliage changes; and even bark texture and color. Selecting and caring for trees is undoubtedly among the most rewarding aspects of ornamental horticulture, for the results will be treasured not only just for the next seasons, but also for posterity.

Note: Height and width measurements listed reflect 10 years' growth.

Acer palmatum 'Shishigashira' Sometimes called Lion’s Head Maple or Mejishi, ‘Shishigashira’ is an unusual, bold addition to a garden indeed! Its deeply curled and crinkled bright green leaves are held in close-knit bunches, adding to the interesting architectural shape of its branches. Spring brings small reddish-purple flowers, often concealed by the densely packed tufts of foliage, while autumn offers spectacular shades of gold flushed with crimson and rose. 1-gallon container.

Lagerstroemia 'Tuscarora'

Magnolia 'Elizabeth'

From the U. S. National Arboretum comes this exquisite midsummer-blooming crape myrtle. Subtly shaded in pink and coral, its dense corsages bloom for 2 months! The rich, lacquered-green foliage turns orange-red in autumn. With a broad vase-shaped habit, statuesque 3-year height of 16 to 20 feet, and attractive exfoliating bark year-round, this is a plant for all seasons. Mildew-resistant; welldrained soil. 1-gallon container. Cannot ship to AZ.

All Magnolias are adaptable and vigorous, but ‘Elizabeth’ is the expert at handling temperature extremes! Surviving -20 degree Fahrenheit temperatures without injury, just months later it basks in 100+ degree heat and humidity over a long, sweltering season. And in early spring, before the new foliage emerges, this lovely tree is dotted with bright, fragrant yellow blossoms from base to tip, in warmer areas the color is less intense! 1-gallon container.

Thuja 'Green Giant' One of the fastest growing of all Conifers, This Red Cedar (T. plicata x T. standishii) will put on 3 to 5 feet of growth per year!

Elegant and uniform, the conical habit of 'Green Giant' needs no shearing or pruning, and is cloaked in dense, dark, evergreen foliage clear to the ground. Untroubled by bagworms, capable of withstanding heavy snow loads, marvelously fragrant and, once established, quite tolerant of environmental stresses, this is a truly exceptional tree, and our bestselling cultivar of all time.

Has displayed good deer resistance. 6-inch deep pot.

Buddleia

Ch

Fragrant, Carefree Color for Any Sunny Garden Spot A prolific source of massed color, Buddleias have a very long blooming period that lasts from summer into early autumn. The long flower trusses are a seemingly unending source of cut flowers and garden beauty, and also attract butterflies. Plants normally grow 12 to 14 feet tall with similar spread, though we recommend cutting back each year to promote bloom — most will grow 6 to 8 feet tall in a single season.

Culture: Easy to grow, Buddleias require little or no care and bloom the same year as planted. Toward the northern limit of their range, they tend to behave as herbaceous perennials, dying back to the roots each winter. They break their dormancy late in the spring, but once started by warm weather, they grow very fast. Since they bloom on new wood, we recommend cutting them back to 6 to 10 inches when planted and again each year before they start spring growth.

Buddleia davidii 'Black Knight' Rated by the Arnold Arboretum as the best Buddleia of all! An extra heavy producer, its blue-black flowers are particularly striking on bright days when the sun illuminates them with unique jewel-like tone. One of the hardiest cultivars in this group. 1-gallon container. Cannot ship to OR. Z 5-9 | early summer/late summer | full sun | H: 6’-8’, W: 6’-8’

It blooms in midsummer, earlier than other related selections that delay their blooms until late summer or even early fall, but its flowers remain striking well into cool weather. Best of all, it blooms reliably and with rich pink color regardless of cold temperatures, soil pH, or pruning. 1-gallon container.

Ideal for smaller gardens and containers, this compact, very well-branched dwarf selection of our native Oakleaf Hydrangea offers closely-set, upright arching foliage and large ivory-white bloomheads that gradually turn antique pink. Fall foliage is a blazing burgundy-red, and winter reveals peeling, furrowed bark. Both the flowers and the foliage are in proportion to the smaller size of this cultivar.

Hydrangea macrophylla Endless Summer® PP#15,298. ('Bailmer') Flowering all the way through Minnesota in the north, this amazing reblooming Hydrangea brings the beauty of huge 8-inch mopheads to the north! Because it flowers on both old and new wood and repeats from early summer until fall, you're assured of a long season of color no matter how late your spring frosts last, particularly if you deadhead the first blooms promptly. In autumn, bronze tints arise on the foliage, adding to the colorful display. Best in partial shade in the south, full sun farther north. Introduced by Bailey Nursery. 1-gallon container.

Hydrangea 'Blushing Bride'

Quicker to Rebloom and More Colorful than Endless Summer®!

PP#17,169 . 'Blushing Bride' is "my most significant introduction to date," declares Dr. Michael Dirr, and we heartily concur. Bred from Endless Summer® x 'Veitchii,' this reblooming mophead is an improvement in every way over its famous parent. The florets are semi-double, adding depth to the 6-inch bloomheads; they emerge pure white and then acquire a faint patina of either pink or blue with maturity. Most importantly, they rebloom much more quickly than those of Endless Summer®, arising on stronger stems that hold well in garden or vase. The glossy foliage offers better resistance to mildew than its parent, turning brilliant shades of yellow, orange, and red in autumn. Highly recommended. 1-gallon container.

Quickly changing to bright yellow, it maintains its color well, particularly in sunnier aspects. By midsummer the leaves are chartreuse to pale green, only to turn golden and orange for autumn. As this shrub matures, its branching becomes more horizontal, creating an elegant layered effect. 1-Quart Container.

Very easy to grow — long-lived and tolerant of heat and drought, they are left alone by deer. Best in well-drained soil and full sun, although partial shade is tolerated well (and even preferred to reduce fading of flowers with predominantly red tones).

This Lilac is as interesting for its graceful arching habit as for its highly fragrant, beautiful pale purple blooms. Unlike most others, it sets blooms not only at the branch tips but also from lateral buds all along the stems, for rows of flowers up to 2 feet long on pendulous willowlike stems. Famously mildew-resistant, vigorous, and healthy, 'Lilac Sunday' was introduced by Arnold Arboretum at Harvard University. Best in less acidic soils than most Lilacs prefer.

Weigela

Showy, Early Summer Flowering Shrubs Weigela are free-blooming shrubs that flower primarily in early summer.

Excellent in the shrub border, they do best in full sun to light shade (some shade is necessary in areas with hot summers). Select a spot free from competing plant roots and a well-drained, yet moisture retentive soil.

Weigela bloom on last year's growth, so prune in summer immediately after flowering for a profusion of gorgeous color next season. Loves hot summers!

Roses Enduring Favorites

Classic Roses that Become the Focal Point of a Fine Garden Of the tens of thousands of named roses available worldwide, only a handful have stood the test of time. These are exceptional varieties that have endured for many decades, across continents, and in gardens with widely varying conditions. These roses are the very best of the family, beloved not only for their particular beauty but also for the dependability of their performance, season after season. We strongly recommend that you add at least one to your garden this year.

'Zephirine Drouhin' A romantic, fragrant, old-fashioned Bourbon rose and still one of the most popular climbing roses today, especially in Europe. No modern rose can exceed it for season-long bloom. Peaking in spring and fall, 2½- to 3-inch, semidouble blooms of cerise-carmine provide outstanding mass effect on nearly thornless canes. Ideal for north-facing walls and areas with little sun. Dark green foliage coppery-purple in spring is mildew-resistant. #1 grade bareroot.

The fragrance is sweet and longlasting, never overpowering but definitely rich. #1 grade bareroot.

'Betty Prior' No Rose can outbloom this great Floribunda! Elegant, 1½- to 2-inch deep pink flowers are subtle and distinctive in color with a light spicy scent. The single blooms, resembling pink Dogwood flowers, appear continuously in large clusters from late spring through fall, becoming deeper colored (almost red) in cooler weather. Its flower clusters are held high above the foliage, making it stand out even at the back of a mixed border. A sturdy grower, it is blessed with remarkable vigor and healthy foliage, blooming generously even after other Roses have passed their prime. An especially good performer in the South, it also fares well in short-season northern climates and demonstrates excellent disease resistance. #1 grade bareroot.

Hybrid Tea Roses

Me

The Best of the New Introductions Plus Tried and True Classics The royalty of the Rose family, Hybrid Teas are the most popular roses in the world. These are the long-stemmed beauties that slowly unfurl from elongated pointed buds, always packed with beautifully whorled petals and are often marvelously fragrant as well. The flowers are fabulous for cutting and exhibiting. Compact and well-branched, today's Hybrid Tea shrubs demonstrate much greater resistance to adversity than those of several decades ago. They tend to be open-habit shrubs that rebloom reliably throughout the season. Give them full sunshine, good soil drainage, and plenty of fertilizer for best (and longest) bloom performance.

'Double Delight' A striking bicolor with urn-shaped buds that open to flowers of creamy white brushed with a non-fading rich red. These huge 5-inch flowers, high-centered with strong stems and a powerful spicy aroma, cover disease-resistant plants several times over the course of a season. AARS Winner. #1 grade bareroot.

Among the largest blooms on any rose, these 7-inch wonders appear several times each season, delighting cut flower lovers, fragrance aficionados, and all the rest of us who admire great beauty and unusual color. Medallion was bred decades ago, but remains one of the most impressive and handsome of all Hybrid Teas. The blooms unfurl from pointed ovoid buds, revealing classic high centers and symmetrically whorled petals (35 to 40 on average) and sports a strong, heady anise scent that is most enticing. The petals display an unusual mix of peach, apricot, and copper tones, with the darkest colors appearing in cool weather (early and late season, typically). This shrub is a bit cold hardier than many, but it is also quite heat tolerant. Good for a hedge, foundation, or border planting. #1 grade bareroot.

Grandiflora Roses Exceptional Flower Size and Form

A cross of Hybrid Tea and Floribunda Roses, Grandifloras offer the best merits of both. Valuable for cutting, these blooms tend to resemble Hybrid Teas in form and size, while boasting the clustered flowering stems and superior hardiness of Floribundas.

This category, literally invented to accommodate the habit of ‘Queen Elizabeth’ (below), is generally recognized in the United States, but not in Britain.

Grandifloras grow upright, are sparsely foliaged near the base, and really should be planted with a facing down of Floribundas. We have selected the most satisfying varieties – ideal for cutting.

Borne in clusters on relatively short stems, they give a mass of color. Excellent for facing down taller, leggy plants and unbeatable for a long-blooming mass display.

Cinco de Mayo™ PPAF. (cv. 'WEKcobeju.') A 2009 AARS Winner with a unique blend of smoky lavender, carmine, rust-red, and burnt orange tones on 3½-inch blooms. Arising in generous clusters on stems up to 15 inches long, these blooms display up to 25 soft, color-soaked petals each, and release a scent of fresh-cut apples. This disease-resistant rose blooms in waves all season long. #1 grade bareroot.

Patio Standard Roses Formal Accents for Garden and Patio!

Standard or tree form Roses require many labor-intensive production techniques before they can be brought to market.

In the garden, however, they require very little care except for occasional pruning. Gardeners find them invaluable for strategic focal points in beds, for interplanting with other roses, or for highlighting an area of the lawn as a specimen.They are also recommended for planting in pairs to emphasize entrances or to flank pathways.They add distinction to any garden, and provide a second spatial dimension above ground level which helps to maximize the visual impact of small-space gardens while requiring very little room. All of our standard roses are 24 inches tall.

Modern Shrub Roses

Bo

Astonishing Flower Production and Ease of Care Most Shrub Roses have their origin during the past fifty years and have Hybrid Tea or Floribunda blood in their genetic makeup — a fact that frequently is exhibited both in the appearance of the flowers and in the growth habit. Excellent for the home garden, they are easily grown, quite robust, and often flower recurrently. Flowers are not only showy, but frequently are produced in a profusion matched by few other shrubs on the market. Cultivation is easy; good feeding and basic pruning will further enhance performance and greater continuity of flowering. Many of this group can be used as climbers, especially the taller growing varieties.

PP#11,836. (cv. ‘RADrazz.’) Breathtakingly beautiful, this supremely blackspot-resistant shrub rose boasts great clusters of lightly fragrant, 3- to 3½-inch blooms of fire-engine-red that arise all summer and well into fall, followed by burgundy-violet fall foliage. Orange-red hips provide color into winter. Crown-hardy to -20° F, this powerhouse sneers at drought, humidity, and most rose pests. It is deservedly the most popular shrub rose for American gardens.

The nea con the

Queen of the Climbers Easy-to-grow, colorful vines

Z5

Extravagant displays of huge flowers in nearly every color (often repeating for an extended season) as well as adaptability, hardiness, and versatility rank Clematis as our favorite climber for American gardens. They never overwhelm their support, and make excellent companions to climbing Roses.

Cl

48

Culture: Clematis prefer a rich, loose, well-drained soil that will permit a free run of the roots; it does best where its tops are in full sun, yet its roots are shaded (such as with low plants or mulch). Our plants are pruned and ready to set out.

The roots must become established before top growth occurs, so it may take two or three seasons for them to reach their full magnificence. Clematis is divided into 3 groups for pruning purposes; see page 57 for complete pruning instructions.

Considered "the" classic Clematis, this heavy bloomer has been adored by gardeners for over 150 years. The 4-petaled, 4-inch blooms sport rich, velvety purple petals highlighted by creamy anthers.

Clematis 'Elsa Spath'

ffy,

Regaling the garden with large, brilliantly colored blooms twice a year, ‘Elsa Spath’ is a welcome addition to any sunny border or rose garden. This heirloom award-winner remains among the finest blue-flowered Clematis ever developed, recognized for its vigor and heavy flower production together with the beauty of its blooms. The first flush of bloom occurs in early- and midsummer, with flowers reaching 6 to 7 inches wide. As they mature, the strong shade of blue passes into a mauve-purple with hints of pink.

A central cluster of stamens punctuates the display, the white filaments topped with dark red anthers. The second bloom appears in early fall in most climates, with the flowers somewhat smaller (perhaps 4 inches on average) but nearly as numerous.

Lonicera periclymenum 'Serotina' Much admired in Europe, this fine selection of the Late Dutch Honeysuckle impressed us tremendously at the Boskoop Trials in Holland.

The crimson buds open to creamy white, yellow and dark red flowers, followed by translucent red fruit. Probably the most beautiful climber in the genus, it is excellent grown on trees, pergolas or fences, and ideal for screening. 1-gallon container.

Intensely-colored 1-inch blooms of violet-blue with a large white eye begin appearing on this graceful plant in early summer, and unlike most Geraniums (which fizzle when the temperature climbs too high), keep coming until early fall. Fantastic in the South and Southwest, where many Geraniums have short and unsatisfactory bloom seasons. It's compact habit manages to send up more flowering stems in less space than most others. As a result, you get a much bigger bloom show, and the plant looks lush rather than rangy.

(How many other Hardy Geraniums would you care to show off, solo, in a hanging basket?) 1-quart container.

Dragon Heart spreads naturally, weaving in and out of its neighborhood while tossing up bold magenta and black blooms as it goes. And it flowers far, far longer than most others — from early summer until mid-fall is not unusual!

These 2-inch blooms are a rich, shimmery magenta with a black center and deep red veins. They appear on very slender amber-brown stems, their bright beauty contrasting with the soft green of the large foliage. It is the perfect cover-up for any leggy perennial, wending its way through the bare stems to create a carpet of brilliant color. (That's the secret of its appeal to roses, too!) 1-quart container.

Expect up to 75 blooms at once on every plant, beginning in early summer and not quitting until fall. Standing up to heat, humidity, poor soil, and even drought, this plant is hardy across the country. Unbeatable bloom strength!

Grasses

Year-round Landscape Interest Every year more discerning gardners are discovering that there are no finer plants than ornamental grasses for accent and architectual effect. From a bold vertical statement to a subtle border edging, there is a grass to fit every landscape need. Our outstanding varieties thrive even in the heat and drought of southern summers.

Panicum virgatum 'Northwind' �New An upright grower and one of the most pleasing and well-behaved of native ornamental grasses, ‘Northwind’ offers densely-packed, slender olive-green foliage topped with airy tassels that turn from green to silver and finally to gold over a long autumn-through-winter season. It is useful as a hedge, perimeter planting, screen, border background, or even specimen in the sunny garden.

Flower panicles are held upright in the middle of the clump—not-arching. 1-quart container.

Wayside gardeners have been asking for Black Bamboo for years now, and we've been scrambling to grow enough of this rare plant to make it available.

New spring canes emerge bright green and steadily darken, first to a smoky gray, then to a pure ebony that just gleams. Meanwhile, the handsome 4- to 5-inch leaves remain dark green, for a wonderful two-tone effect. Because this Bamboo is evergreen, the show gets even better next spring when you've got your older black canes offsetting the new green ones!

Hemerocallis

A Phenomenal Color Show all Summer Long!

For toughness, reliability, and long-lasting color, Hemerocallis is the backbone of many perennial gardens. Our improved vigorous hybrids include evergreen, semi-evergreen, and dormant types in a full range of colors, patterns, sizes and forms. Resistant to drought once established, Hemerocallis can take heat, humidity, and just about any soil. Space plants 18 to 24 inches apart.

Hemerocallis 'El Desperado' A breakthrough in hardy Daylilies! Big 4½-inch blooms of deep yellow sport some of the showiest burgundy eyezones AND edges known in the Daylily world. And they arise heavily on 28-inch plants superbly tolerant of heat, humidity, and even drought! As fancy as a hot-house flower yet as hardy and easy to grow as a weed, this is the Daylily for busy gardeners!

Eyecatching! Bareroot.

Majestic, Long-Lasting Garden Royalty Among the easiest to grow and most beautifully colored of Lilies, the Asiatic Hybrids arise in late spring and early summer, with 3- to 4-inch blooms in a range of bright hues.

They can be stored for forcing year-round, and will typically bloom within about 3 months of starting the bulb. The LA Hybrids are crosses of L. longiflorum and Asiatic cultivars.

They sport the trumpet shape and extended vase life of the L. longiflorums combined with the greater range of colors and upfacing blooms of the Asiatics. Orienpet Lilies combine the best characteristics of Oriental and Trumpet types: superb fragrance, vibrant colors, substantial petal texture for longer life, and heavy rebloom.

Asiatic Lily Mix Boasting all the mellow pastels and warm tones for which they are beloved, the Asiatic Lilies in our exclusive mix sport blooms fully 4 to 5 inches across, with a wide-open form and saturated color. Selected for season-long bloom (with heaviest flush in midsummer), these Lilies are a reliable, economical way to create years of garden enjoyment.

Oriental Lilies Oriental Lilies are enduringly popular for their powerful sweet fragrance, large flower size, brilliant colors, and late-summer bloom time. Among the easiest of all plants to grow, all they ask is for sun and well-drained, enriched soil. Ideal as cutflowers (remove the pollen-bearing stamens before bringing the blooms into the house, as they can stain), these magnificent lilies open just when many other blooming plants in the garden are closing down for the season, which endears them to us all the more.

Extremely Floriferous!

A reliable favorite in the sunny perennial border, Verbascum (Mullein) just got a makeover!

Stokesia laevis 'Blue Danube' Lovely, large 2- to 3- inch Aster-like blossoms of delicate silveryblue appear over a very long season (all winter in Florida!). One of the finest cutflowers, its bold, heat- and drought-tolerant drifts are valuable in beds and borders. It is superb when planted among other low-growing, long-blooming perennials.

Verbascum 'Clementine' �New A showstopping combination of soft, fresh color distinguishes this Riverside Hybrid. Selected from a wide range of native species, this cultivar delights with claretred buds that burst into large orange-apricot blooms, becoming more peachy and golden as they mature.

Shady gardens are restful to the senses as well as to the soul. To help you create your own haven, we have gathered the most beautiful and unique selections from which you can create your special retreat, and in the words of Cardinal Newman, enjoy a garden that is "mystically a place of spiritual repose, stillness, peace, refreshment, and delight."

Astilbe x arendsii 'Fanal' This long-time Wayside favorite boasts delightfully decorative bronze foliage and flowers that are the darkest red of the Astilbes.

Excellent for the shade border, ‘Fanal’ produces long-lasting feathery flowerheads in summer that, if left uncut, provide winter landscape interest as well. They make splendid Everlastings for indoor arrangements, and complement the deeply cut bronze foliage. Space plants 8 to 12 inches apart in a deep, rich, moist soil with plenty of organic matter. Water well and mulch in hot, dry weather. Bareroot.

Astilbe x arendsii 'Snowdrift' Selected by the Bloom family of Bressingham Gardens in England, ‘Snowdrift’ offers an exciting color break in Astilbes.

It arose as a sport of the popular A. ‘Irrlicht’ and is one of the whitest Astilbes to date. Excellent for the shaded border, producing feathery flowerheads all summer that, if left uncut, provide winter landscape interest. Also splendid for dried arrangements. The foliage is deeply incised and graceful, in rich green or bronze. Plant 8 to 12 inches apart in a deep, rich, moist soil with plenty of organic matter. Water well and mulch in hot, dry weather. Bareroot.

Astilbe chinensis 'Purple Candle' A Chinese Astilbe with enormous blooms and superior tolerance of summer sun and dry spells, 'Purple Candle' is ideal for gardeners in hot, arid climates where other Astilbes suffer. It is late-blooming, with a brilliant red-influenced purple flower color that matures to rich lavender. We highly recommend it for dependable, over-the-top performance summer after summer.

Dense and well-branched, the blooms add another 2 feet of height, appearing on very sturdy, abundant stems that open gradually from the base. Bareroot.

Astilbe japonica 'Rheinland' Lighten up the shade with an extra-bright, profuse infusion of pink!

The leaves on this eyecatching Astilbe are as lacy as Ferns, creating even more of an airy, featherlight look. 'Rheinland’ is an excellent multi-season plant, producing its flower heads all summer that turn, if the last flowers are left on the plant, into a rich tan that persists throughout autumn and even into early winter, or cut the blooms for long-lasting fresh and dried arrangements! Space plants about 10 to 12 inches apart in a deep, rich, moist soil with plenty of organic matter. ‘Rheinland’ appreciates plenty of water and mulch during hot, dry summer weather for heaviest flowering.

Hardy Ferns

Ma

Few plants impart such a light, airy, cooling effect, or provide such a range of textures for the garden as Ferns. Easy to grow, even in a lightly shaded southern woodland setting, they like a light, highly organic soil with ample moisture during their growing season, more so as the plants are becoming established. Most prefer shade or partial shade. Our plants are of northern ancestry for extra hardiness, and perform better and better with age. Do not plant too deep; set the crowns at or just below soil level. A year-round mulch is recommended.

Athyrium 'Ghost' One of the finest of all garden ferns, this stunning American hybrid illuminates shady locations.

A terrifically versatile fern, outstandingly beautiful in its own right as well as being the perfect foil for surrounding green- and blue-leaved plants. A cross between the Lady Fern and Japanese Silver-Painted Fern, it combines finely divided foliage, excellent upright habit, and silvery-gray fronds so luminous they appear to glow. Happily indifferent to soil type, and tolerant of more dryness than many other ferns. In multiple plantings, space them about two feet apart in partial to full shade. A wonderful groundcover or container choice, too! 1-quart container.

One of the most popular Hardy Ferns, this tall, graceful native sets dense, rigid arching fronds up and out. As they mature they widen at the tip, creating a lovely canopy effect. Amber to bronze autumn foliage color enhances the appeal. Certain butterflies feed on this fern, which is avoided by deer and other nibbling creatures. Very easy to grow in a variety of light exposures, in the wild the Ostrich Fern is found in streambanks, thriving in very moist, rich soil.

This English classic is one of the very best blue-leaved cultivars, known for its ability to retain its color far longer than most. A necessity in the shade border, it will delight you year after year, its large, handsome leaves growing more beautifully textured with each new spring. Most surprising are its flowers, which arise on 2-foot stems above the foliage. They are a rich lilac-blue and very long-lasting, making them a good cut-flower for the vase. Many Hostas are subject to damage from nibbling slugs and snails, but ‘Halcyon’ offers thick foliage from a very young age, discouraging nibbling pests. 1-quart container.

Midsummer brings lavender flowers, while even the hottest temperatures cannot “green out” the variegation. A sandy, loamy soil is best, but this sport of 'Blue Mouse Ears' will tolerate even heavy clay, and thrives in any soil pH from acidic through neutral. Very long-lived, its beauty increases with each passing year while its size remains tidy and miniature.

Hosta 'Silver Bay' �New Regal silvery-blue foliage forms a densely-layered flattop mound that seersuckers heavily as it matures—the hallmark of this classic cultivar. Very substantial in texture, the leaves discourage nibbling slugs and snails, instead forming a densely layered, flat-topped mound.

The pale lavender bell-shaped blooms on 22-inch scapes are followed by fertile seedpods. Introduced

by Don Dean in 1999, it has become one of the most popular and enduring of the blue-leaved varieties.

Hosta 'Stained Glass'

Hosta 'Sum of All'

Hosta 'Sum of All'

Hosta 'Touch of Class'

This Hosta is left unnibbled by slugs and snails and unburnt by limited sun exposure, thanks to its extraordinarily substantial leaf thickness. Its bright band of gold, which edges each leaf, grows wider and deeper with each passing year on heart-shaped leaves delightfully crinkly and puckered. Giant leaves (up to 16 inches long) acquire their bold texture and interesting up-and-out hold, which gives the entire plant a hectic appearance, as if being blown by a breeze. The central green color remains fresh, shading unevenly into the band of gold. In late summer lavender flowers on 4-foot stems top the foliage. 1-quart container.

PP#13,080. Magnificently thick-leaved, this tricolored specimen keeps its cool blue tones right through summer heat. The only green is the narrow band on each leaf where the brilliant gold flame overlaps with the irregular blue edging. Its leaves are substantial, waxy, and nicely held, holding up to spring rains, summer heat, and autumn breezes. Part of this Hosta’s vigor and strength comes from the fact that it’s a tetraploid, boasting twice the chromosomes of most other Hosta cultivars. Slender 2-foot stems dangle 1-inch lavender-blue blooms above the foliage in summer, completing the ornamental appeal of this handsome perennial. 1-quart container.

Hosta 'Stained Glass'

Hosta 'Sum and Substance'

2006 Hosta of the Year Every once in a while a Hosta comes along that has more to offer than merely beautiful foliage, and 'Stained Glass' is so meritorious you may wonder why you grow anything else! Not only are its gold-centered leaves stunning, but their texture is pleasantly puffy, their shape symmetrical, and their color true right through the worst summer heat. As if this weren't enough, the pale-lilac blooms are sweetly fragrant! Very tolerant of just about any soil and weather conditions, it is hardy from one end of the country to the other. Its leaves become more richly textured with each passing year of its long life, increasing its ornamental appeal. 1-quart container.

2009 Hosta of the Year Truly one of the greatest Hostas of all time! We hear more and more raves about the performance of this huge-leaved cultivar as the years pass. Heavy, 2-foot yellow leaves gradually turn a rich gold, making a striking impression in the border or as a specimen. Fragrant white blooms on 38-inch scapes complete the ornamental appeal of this substantial, imposing shade lover. Quite slug- and snail-resistant, its garden value increases each year as its magnificent foliage grows increasingly substantial, textured, and interesting. A superb choice for specimen use or mass planting, it achieves best golden tones in morning sun and afternoon shade. A multiple award winner and popular favorite ever since its introduction.

One of the late Paul Aden's finest introductions. 1-quart container.

Adaptable to sun or shade (preferable in the South), it needs moisture-retentive, gritty, well-drained soil. Space 6 to 8 inches apart. 1-quart container.

Groundcovers Groundcovers beautify your property while reducing labor and maintenance.

Once established, they are a carefree means of carpeting difficult areas, growing ideally in shaded or partially shaded areas where grass will not grow, or in hard to reach or sloping areas where mowing is difficult. Use mulch 1 to 2 inches deep the first two seasons for rapid rooting of runners.

Liriope muscari 'Sno Cone' �New

Liriope 'Sno Cone'

�New

PP#20,605. Discovered by John Elsley in his South Carolina garden, this utterly unique cultivar cheerfully breaks all the rules of its species, with showstopping results. Its white-streaked foliage becomes more snowy rather than more green with the arrival of summer heat; its habit is recurved rather than cascading; its berries are a wild mix of purple, green, and white instead of the standard black. While most Monkey Grass lives out a mundane existence as edging, 'Sno Cone' deserves to be treated as the valued specimen it really is! Superb for containers. 4-inch pot.

Andromeda polifolia 'Blue Ice'

Aegopodium podagraria 'Variegata'

A. 'Blue Ice' is an outstanding ornamental for the North! From early to midspring it bears attractive true pink, ½-inch bell-shaped flowers in terminal clusters. Year-round it sports long, slender, elegant blue leaves that look fresh and attractive! Perfect for a groundcover or edging, it's a must-have in cold climates! 1-gallon container.

Ceratostigma plumbaginoides Elegantly meandering over rocks and across troublesome bare spots, this quick-spreading groundcover delights with late season color in flower and foliage. As summer draws to a close, masses of ¾-inch azure-blue blooms dot the plant, remaining for many weeks. When the cool weather of fall arrives, the glossy green foliage turns rich shades of mahogany — very ornamental at a time when the perennial garden may have little to show for itself ! Famously easy to grow, it tolerates any soil except poorly drained ones, and makes itself at home in the garden, wending its way around shrubs and perennials without becoming aggressive. An old-fashioned favorite deserving wider use in American gardens. 1-quart container.

Arctostaphylos uva-ursi 'Massachusetts' A glorious evergreen ground cover for sandy, acid soils and open locations.

It is especially valuable for coastal regions. Tiny, glossy green leaves densely cover even the poorest soils. Lower growing than the species, its dark foliage bronzes in winter. Very free-flowering, it's small, pinkinshwhite bell-shaped flowers last for a full 6 weeks, followed by plenty of beautiful red berries. Vigorous and trouble free. 1-gallon container.

Aegopodium podagraria 'Variegata' Among the absolute easiest plants to grow, even in the poor dry shade beneath trees where nothing else survives, Variegated Bishop's Weed has rescued many a garden from the ravages of soil erosion, foot traffic, and unchecked weeds. This ultra-vigorous groundcover leafs out in pale green with generous, irregular white margins on small, neat leaves. Modest white blooms dot the plant for several weeks, but it is the variegated foliage that truly differentiates it from the masses of plain green groundcovers. Expect it to form a pleasingly mounded, dense plant within a single season, and to spread fully 3 feet wide within two years of planting. Best in challenging situations, it can become invasive if pampered with rich, moist soil and ideal environmental conditions. A lifesaver plant that challenges the most difficult locations. Cannot ship to MA, CT or VT. 1-quart container.

Convallaria majalis This Lily-of-the-Valley is an improved strain. This bold, strong grower is especially well adapted for use as a ground cover, particularly in shady places. With minimum attention, a single bed will produce deliciously fragrant, long-stemmed bell-shaped flowers in abundance as long as you live. Often the flowers are followed by small scarlet berries. Pack of (12) pips.

Cotoneaster horizontalis �New Truly a four-season shrub, this semi-evergreen begins spring with starry pink flowers, followed by glossy, round berries of bright scarlet that persist throughout autumn and well into winter. Small, rounded leaves of deep green turn reddish orange to maroon in autumn. The growth pattern of this groundcover is dense and rather stiff, with bristly shoots jutting outward in a herringbone pattern. Useful for espaliering or scrambling over stones in a rock garden plus general groundcover applications. Slow-growing and unappetizing to deer, Rockspray Cotoneaster attracts bees, butterflies, and birds into the garden, and is quite drought-tolerant once established. Unusual and useful in every season. 1-gallon container.

Hakonechloa macra 'Albo Striata' Japanese Forest Grass is ideal for lightening those shady spots! Each long, narrow, elegantly pointed leaf is striped with white on plants that form a dense waterfall of color that ripples in the breeze. Quickergrowing than Golden Hakone Grass, this heat-tolerant plant loves moist, enriched soil in part to full shade. Ideal for edging, the border, and containers! 1-gallon container.

Perfect for container growing.

How about this for an elegant groundcover — an ornamental Strawberry with big, dark reddish-rose blooms from mid-spring all the way until frost! It produces few, if any fruits. Lipstick is just about the showiest thing to happen to groundcover in years, and few plants are easier to grow — superb for hanging baskets. 4-inch pot.

Pleioblastus auricomis (Dwarf Bamboo)

Liriope muscari 'Monroe White'

If your image of bamboo is towering, invasive clutter manageable only with a well-sharpened machete, please take a closer look at this valuable species. Never exceeding 3 feet tall and wide, it can be dug up and divided to maintain an even smaller size, and its growth pattern is compact and elegant. The glowing gold-and-green foliage and vertical habit combine to create a nice contrast in the perennial garden, patio, or even mixed containers, and it remains evergreen for year-round display! 4-inch pot.

A classic but seldom encountered Lily Turf, 'Monroe White' offers gleaming white flower panicles symmetrically arrayed over narrow, strap-like foliage.

Spikes of shiny black berries follow the flowers. This striking plant makes an exquisite specimen or ground cover, and is indispensable to formal plantings, pathways, and other parts of the garden where uniform edging is called for.

Succeeds in sunny or shady locations.

Ophiopogon planiscapus 'Nigrescens' Black mondo grass is one of the few blackleaved plants always drawing attention to itself! Although not a grass, its narrow, evergreen, arching black foliage is further enhanced in summer by clusters of small pink flowers followed by glossy, black berries. Its dwarf 6-inch somewhat slow, spreading habit eventually creates a low, dense turf. Tolerant of shade, few plants enhance the colors of adjacent plantings when compared with the Black Mondo Grass. Attractive in container combinations. 3-inch pot.

Ajuga 'Dixie Chip' PPAF. Far and away one of the most elegant Ajuga cultivars ever introduced, this miniature variety sports dense clumps of small leaves, each patterned with flashes of gray, pink, and yellow among the olivegreen. Ideal for every setting from a fine container to a mass planting, it is topped by blue blooms over many weeks, and remains evergreen in warmer climates.

The ultra-tight, dense habit ensures that 'Dixie Chip' suppresses weeds effectively, making it useful between perennials in the border. Deer tend to leave it alone, but butterflies and hummingbirds flock to its blooms. Morning sun and afternoon shade is best for bringing out the exquisite play of colors on this premier groundcover, which was introduced by Itsaul Plants of Georgia. 4-inch pot.

Cornus Empress of China™

Cornus

Empress of China™

PP#14,537. (cv. 'Elsbry.') Beautiful every month of the year, this vigorous evergreen tree is very heavy-blooming and fruiting, with up to 150 1½-inch flowers on just one branch at the height of the season! The flowers remain for 6 to 8 weeks, opening pale green and then maturing to pure white. They are followed by translucent strawberry-like fruit, a magnet for songbirds in late summer and fall. And the glossy, leathery green leaves remain right through winter, sloughing off only after the new spring foliage arrives! A classic that outperforms all others, it was developed by John Elsley. Best in morning sun and afternoon shade. Worthy of a place of honor in your landscape. 1-gallon container.
