Holly - Heller's Japanese
The Japanese Holly 'Heller's', Ilex crenata 'Helleri', is a very dense and dwarf form that reaches a height of 3 feet with an equal spread. It is a good substitute for boxwood because of its small dark green leaves. 'Heller's' can be used as an accent plant, in mass plantings, as a landscape specimen, and in rock gardens. This plant is used in the landscape in front of taller shrubs for a contrast in your landscape scene. It is best that it has a regular watering schedule during the first growing season to establish a deep, extensive root system. Feed with a general purpose fertilizer before new growth begins in spring. This plant performs best in moist, well-drained acidic soils. As with most other hollies, this plant is deer resistant! Zones 6-9

|  Rhododendron - Ramapo - Sale Price: $51.35
Rhododendron - Ramapo, Rhododendron 'Ramapo', is a dense-growing evergreen shrub that has a very dwarf compact habit. Clusters of flowers are about 1 long, light violet-purple, no markings. Large trusses of the showy flowers are a beautiful contrast to the leaves. The bluish green foliage makes it an asset to the landscape all year around. Ramapo is very effective when a smaller accent is needed. If you have a small garden with little room for a large rhododendron - this dwarf rhodo may be for you! Rhododendrons are ornamental, acidic-soil loving broad-leaf evergreens. They grow best in partial shade. Plant in a location protected from strong winter winds. Ramapo loves to be planted with pre-moistened peat moss. Well drained soil is a must! Use in mass, group or specimen for shrub borders, mixed borders, woodland gardens and shade gardens. This dwarf is exceptional as a container-grown plant and bonsai. Ramapo also prefers cooler regions. |
|  Rhododendron - Firestorm - Sale Price: $51.35
Rhododendron - Firestorm, Rhododendron x 'Firestorm', is a wonderful evergreen with bright red wavy edged blossoms that are over 3 inches across that are held in large dome shaped clusters. Each flower is openly funnel shaped. The new leaves are frosty, lime green, darkening as they age. Firestorm is smaller in stature, dense, and spreading which makes it a versatile landscape shrub for foundation planting and mixed borders. (A sister seedling of 'Scarlet Romance'.) This easy care rhododendron needs excellent drainage, mulching and a peat moss soil additive. Roots will rot in poorly drained soil, so well-drained soil is a must! Rhododendrons are ornamental, acidic-soil loving broad-leaf evergreens and are ideal for shrub borders and informal hedges. The most favorable time to prune is when there are no flower buds in the early spring, just before growth begins. * Red, Red, Red! |

|  Spirea - Dakota Goldcharm® - Sale Price: $51.35
Dakota Goldcharm® Spirea, spiraea japonica 'Mertyann', has showy golden foliage that is accented by bright pink flowers blooming in early summer, repeating through the remainder of the season. The foliage emerges bronze, turns yellow-gold in summer and develops a pink-red fall color. Dakota Goldcharm Spirea is more or less a miniature version of Goldflame or Goldmound Spirea, with foliage that starts a deep red, fading to a yellowish green by late spring. This certainly is a plant to locate at the front of a planting bed, otherwise it will be lost among the taller perennials and shrubs. ‘Mertyann’ prefers loamy soil with full to partial sun. This mounded shrub grows 15-18 inches tall with 2-3 foot spread. Since it is so small, it can also be used as a ground cover. Spireas are among the easiest flowering shrubs to grow since they are tolerant of many soils except extremely wet. This plant also likes mulch and summer watering. * Colorful foliage * Ground cover * Low maintenance |
