Juniper - Grey Owl
The Grey Owl Juniper, J. virginiana 'Grey Owl', is a handsome, medium-sized, slightly vase-shaped, vigorous evergreen with widely spreading branches and loose, airy, silvery-gray foliage. This evergreen shrub is similar to Pfitzer Juniper in habit. The branch tips sometimes turn purple in winter. Female Grey Owls set abundant cones. Prune junipers in June after the new growth has time to establish. With most evergreens it is easy to remember Prune in June. 'Grey Owl' is excellent for use as screen, background, or accent. It withstands a wide variety of soils and growing conditions and very long lived. It produces attractive silver-blue berries. It is called 'Grey Owl' because it has a grey and ghostly look. Soften a dark landscape with the soft appearing Grey Owl!

This dogwood adds color in the winter with its tomato-orange branches that are extremely showy and brightens up a drab landscape!

Butterfly Bush - Nanho Purple - DetailsButterfly Bush - Nanho Purple - Sale Price: $56.45
Nanho Purple Butterfly Bush, Buddleia davidii 'Nanho Purple', is sometimes called the Summer Lilac. Vigorous growing multi-stem plant, it has tiny individual purple flowers that are produced in profusion in long, dense trusses from July to September. It is more compactly leafed than most Butterfly Bush varieties. In northern areas it dies back in winter, so trim to 6-10 in spring. It is crown hardy in zone 5, a good cut flower, and attracts butterflies. Butterfly bushes prefer full sun and must receive eight or more hours of sun a day to thrive and get the best blooms. Cut faded flowers off of bush regularly to keep it blooming throughout the summer. It is easily maintained at four to six feet in height, and five feet wide, if it is hard-pruned annually. Nanho Purple does not require much watering once it is established. Zones 5-9. * Lilac-Like Flowers!

Bluebeard - Arthur J. Simmonds - DetailsBluebeard - Arthur J. Simmonds - Sale Price: $49.95
The Arthur J. Simmonds Bluebeard, Caryopteris x clandonensis 'Arthur J. Simmonds', is perhaps the hardiest of bluebeards! It displays powdery light blue flowers that are produced in late summer when few other shrubs bloom. It makes a shapely rounded bush, and its light colored lance-shaped leaves visually blur with the blue of the flowers. Before flowering, Arthur J. Simmonds makes a fine foliaged, formal shape that combines well with golden grasses. This is a relatively small shrub that will die back to the ground during the winter. It is suggested that this bluebeard be cut back to the ground to enhance production of new wood on which the flowers will be borne. Fall Bloom! Zones 5-9
