2010 New Trees & Shrubs

Aralia Elata Aureovariegata

Variegated Aralia is more compact than the species. It typically matures to 6-8' tall and features striking variegated foliage. The palmate leaves are bright green edged with white.

Barberry Golden Ruby

A beautiful, slow-growing plant with striking coral-orange foliage. It emerges a flourescent orange, with leaves maturing burgundy with a gold ring in summer. Fall color is flame orange to red.

Betula Nigra Summer Cascade

An exciting new weeping form of river birch. The tree may be left untrained to form a mounded shrub, or staked to promote a central leader with pendulous branches.

Blackberry Darrel

The near-black berries are unbelievably big, many measuring a full inch across! They are tempting, with a near-wild taste and a rich, fruity aroma.

Buddleia Blue Chip

A dwarf variety of Buddleia with all the fragrance and butterfly appeal of traditional varieties. 'Blue Chip' stays under three feet tall without any pruning and blooms continuously from mid summer to frost.

Cornus China Fruit

In early summer, masses of rich greenish-white, 4" bracts burst into bloom lasting several weeks. When the bracts fade, dramatic red, knobby fruits remain. Fall color is a rich red-purple and scarlet.

Cornus Garden Glow

White summer flowers and white to pale blue berries accompany lush, golden foliage. Best yellow-green leaf color when planted in light shade.

Euonymus Fire Ball

An improved selection of compact burning bush that has superior cold hardiness and brilliant red fall color.

Genista Royal Woadwaxen

Compact selection with fine textured foliage. Gold pea-like flowers in late spring to early summer; cut back after flowering for a late rebloom! Excellent for the toughest locations like poor, gravelly soils.

Hydrangea Invincibelle Spirit

Like an Annabelle Hydrangea with pink flowers. Unlike many Hydrangeas, the flower buds are produced on new wood, so it continues to produce new flowers right up until frost. Takes part shade.

Hydrangea Little Lime

A new dwarf form of the ever popular 'Limelight' hydrangea. This hardy hydrangea blooms on 'new wood'. Summer flowers open soft green and turn pink and burgundy in the fall.

Hydrangea Vanilla Strawberry

Comparable to 'Pinky Winky', however the habit is more upright and the red flower color persists longer. Creamy vanilla beginning in midsummer, changing to pink and finally to strawberry-red.

Juniperus Saybrook Gold

New bright yellow juvenile foliage; soft to the touch; deepens to vivid yellow; becomes prickly with age. Considered the brightest gold foliaged chinensis type juniper.

Lonicera Ghost

Showy yellow flowers cover the vine in June with the distinctive appearance of eucalyptus-like bracts. It is a perennial vine with a twining habit and a very distinctive appearance.

Prunus Black Ice

BlackIce is a cross between a cherry plum and a plum resulting in large fruit with superior winter hardiness and an early ripening date. Ripening date is 2-4 weeks earlier than most. Sweet, yellow flesh.

Raspberry Canby Red

Thornless red raspberry. Prolific producer of tasty dark red fruit in midsummer to fall of second year. Very hardy selection.

Rhododendron Millenium

Fragrant, deep red flowers with a pale orange flare are set off by blue-green foliage. A late bloomer, starting early to mid July, that stands up well to the heat.

Rose Sunny Knockout

A brand new color in the popular Knock-Out Series, 'Sunny' has an upright habit, clean dark green foliage and terrific everblooming qualities.

Spirea Doubleplay Gold

This spirea cultivar has brilliant gold foliage. It will hold its color all season long and provides a profusion of beautiful, large pink blooms.

Syringa Bloomerang Purple

Bloomerang blooms in spring, goes through a resting period in the heat of the summer and flowers again later in the summer. This new lilac's fragrant flowers continue until frost.

Viburnum Cardinal Candy

The bright red, persistant berries make for a stunning display in the fall. Loads of creamy white flowers adorn this plant in the spring.
