Flowers are pink and foliage turns yellow in the fall, and retains color into late fall. Similar to 'Alpina' but larger (to 30"), faster growing, and with larger leaves (to 1" long). An introduction from England that has better golden leaf color than 'Goldflame'; shoots do not revert to green and habit remains more compact. Mildew resistant plant has brilliant gold foliage that will hold its color all season long and provides a profusion of beautiful pink flowers. A Darthuizer selection of Spiraea media that grows to 5x5' and has an abundance of large white blooms in April and May. Deep fuchsia, tightset, tubular flowers are lifted above a tidy, compact rosette on stout, straight stalks, with crinkled and round-‐ tipped medium green nearly evergreen foliage stays close to the ground. Size: 20" high x 12" wide; hardy to zone 4. Low growing, this has golden leaves that are brightest in sunlight. Spreading to a foot or more wide it makes an attractive ground cover. In late spring to early summer 6" tall stems of pale, lavender-‐blue flowers open. The golden leaves are noted for their resistence to sun scorch in hot climates. Plants have a tight and upright habit without the tendency to split in the middle. Its foliage color is dark like a cabernet. The pink flowers are extremely vibrant when set against the dark burgundy foliage and with slight shearing will rebloom through out the summer. Full sun is essential for dark foliage. herbaceus perennials scientific name common name 7 notes scientific name common name Amelanchier ×grandiflora 'Ballerina' APPLE SERVICEBERRY Buddleja 'Pink Delight' AGM BUTTERFLY BUSH Calycanthus chinensis SPICEBUSH Calycanthus 'Hartledge Wine' SPICEBUSH Cercidiphyllum japonicum f. pendulum 'Amazing Grace' WEEPING KATSURA TREE Chionanthus virginicus FRINGE TREE Cornus mas CORNELIAN CHERRY 8 notes upright shrub or small tree reaching 15' to 20' in height with spreading branches; young leaves are broadly elliptic, flowers white, 1" to 1 1/8" in diameter, fruit 3/8" to 1/2" in diameter, bright red turning purplish-‐black when ripe Compact shrub reaching 5' in height and 6' in width with silvery foliage and large, 12" long flower spikes of soft pink effective from June to first frost.

Large shrub or small tree with stiff, spreading branches developing a somewhat oval to rounded crown. Plants reach 20' to 30' in height, 15' to 25' in spread. Flowers perfect, white, fragrant, borne in large, terminal, 6" to 12" long, and 6" to 10" wide panicles, in early to mid-‐June, effective to 2 weeks; extremely showy in flower. Bark cherry-‐like, reddish brown to brownish on young and old stems, marked with prominent horizontal lenticels, becoming gray and scaly on older trunks. Somewhat similar to S. reticulata, but smaller (15-‐20') with a more informal (multi-‐ stemmed) habit, and finer texture throughout. The leaves and stems are smaller and finer. The flowers are creamy white and appear before those of S. reticulata in 3-‐6" long panicles. Habit bushy, spreading and rounded. Bark often quite handsome, being sometimes similar to that of S. reticulata, or on some trees, may exfoliate in rich brown flakes or sheets. Small tree reaching 35'-‐ 40' in height and width with creamy white panicles of flowers and exfoliating, cherry-‐like bark (DS 519). It was selected for its upright, narrow form, cold and drought tolerance, and attractive cherry-‐like bark. The original tree is 40' tall with a spread of 25'. Has proven highly tolerant of deicing salts (DS 682). Plants have a densely rounded, compact habit and reach 20'-‐25' in height. Leaves are very dark green; flowers are abundant and produced at a young age. Bushy medium-‐sized deciduous shrub with dark green, heart-‐shaped leaves and dense panicles of fragrant, deep purplish-‐red, double flowers soon fading to deep pink Flowers white, double. According to Father Fiala, one of the best doubles.

Slow growth rate. Conifer, no flowers. Female plants produce red, fleshy, single-‐seeded fruit instead of cones. Long lived, low-‐ maintenance, no serious insect or disease problem. Finely textured, dense, nearly globose shrub, somewhat broader than high, reaching about 2.5 m in height, and 3.5 m in width, well-‐ branched with short shoots and deep green, 15.. to 20mm long, somewhat sickle-‐shaped needles (DS 8). Male clone with densely rounded habit, reaching 9' in height, 12' in width after 20 years with dark green needles (DS 9). Columnar in habit reaching 20' in height after 15 to 20 years; needles lustrous dark green above, lighter beneath; male and female clones exist. Narrowly columnar, about 2-‐3 imes taller than wide, branches ascending, long, often with the peak of the plant wider than the base; needles radial on erect shoots, distinctly 2-‐ranked on the lateral shoots, 25 to 30 cm long, 3 mm wide, glossy dark green above with a raised midrib, light green beneath. Female form of quite dense and compact habit, upright, about 3.5 m tall, 2.5 m wide in twenty years; needles very densely arranged, 18 to 20 mm long, about 2.5 mm wide, sharply acuminate, black-‐green above, lighter beneath, fruting abundantly on 3-‐ to 4-‐year-‐ old plants (DS 8). Free-‐fruiting female form, erect and dense, taller than wide, a twenty-‐ year-‐old plant being 12' tall, 9' wide; very dark green needles (DS 9). Normally of broad, shrubby habit, but always trimmed to a pyramid in the nursery, becoming 3 to 5 m tall with regularly arranged branches and numerous twigs; needles to 20 mm long, 2 mm wide, acute, somewhat bowed, dark green above, dull green beneath.
