Bearberry - Massachusetts
The Massachusetts Bearberry, evergreen shrub, Arctostaphylos u. 'Massachusetts', is a low growing, mat forming groundcover. It grows 6-12 inches tall, 2-4 feet wide, has small glossy leaves, and can cover a 15' diameter area, but is not invasive. This green foliage turns a bronzy red in fall and winter. The bell shaped, dainty flowers appear in the spring. The fruit, that is bright red and highly decorative, appears in late summer, persisting into fall. This low 'Massachusetts' shrub thrives in a variety of soils, but does best in poor, infertile sandy acidic soil, and is salt tolerant. Do not fertilize, and pruning is not necessary. It is a beautiful, low maintenance groundcover, once established. Zones 3-7 When looking for an evergreen ground cover, be sure to look at this plant!

Barberry - Concorde - DetailsBarberry - Concorde - Sale Price: $32.95
Commonly known as Japanese Barberry, this compact little shrub’s burgundy-colored foliage is a dramatic —and welcome— contrast in a landscape dominated by green everything-else. ‘Concorde’ has very small teardrop-shaped leaves on thorny branches which form an orderly round plant that tops out at not much more than a couple of feet. Use ‘Concorde’ as a foundation planting or berm or border edging, and in any number of other small, sunny spaces where you need a plant of a different color. Full sun keeps the leaves their pretty royal purple color, which will gently turn deep red in the fall, and through the winter you’ll be treated to lovely red berries. A slightly acidic soil will benefit this slow-growing, pest-free shrub (which is also hypo-allergenic and resistant to deer, drought and disease). To tilt the pH, just tap a few nails into the soil under the shrub canopy. Pruning is only required to change its shape or overall size. Zones 4-8. There is always space for Concorde in any landscape, and it will look terrific in yours as well. Plant in full sun.
