Pendens (Taxodium distichum 'Pendens')
This Bald Cypress is not dramatically weeping, but the limbs do droop. It looks fresh and soft all summer. It is deciduous, tho. Zone 4
| Size: 1 gallon | Price: $30.00 |
| Size: Field grown | Price: $115.00 |
Columnar plants are in so Fastigiata should be a hot plant; orange fall color. 35′ in our lifetime. zone 5
| Size: 1 gallon | Price: $30.00 |
| Size: Field grown | Price: $115.00 |
Debonair (Taxodium ascendens 'Debonair')
Debonair is such a good name for this tree; I get the feeling of an old time movie star wrapping herself in a cape and twirling away. The tree can get to be 50′ and narrow with orange fall color. zone 5
| Size: 1 gallon | Price: $30.00 |
| Size: Field grown | Price: $115.00 |
Strawberry Tree (Arbutus unedo)
A large shrub with shiny green leaves all year, the Strawberry Tree has rough scaly red-brown bark. The late summer pancles of white/pink flowers change to nickel-sized red orbs in the late fall. zone 7
| Size: 1 gallon | Price: $30.00 |
Arbutus marina (Arbutus marina)
This may be a form of Arbutus andrachnoides, but whatever it is, it is beautiful. This photo was taken in Feb in Oregon and shows the dark green leaves and flaking red bark which is similar to the Pacific Madrone and much sought after. But whereas the Pacific Madrone is almost impossible to keep alive, this tree can handle cultivated garden conditions (well, not too much water) that would kill a madrone in minutes. Zone 7.
| Size: 1 gallon | Price: $30.00 |
Wintersweet (Chimonanthus praecox)
First of all, I took this pic yesterday, December 27 so you see this Wintersweet is in full flower, and more important, it is in full fragrance; so as I go out my office door (just to the left of the window that you see there), I feel the sweetness to my toes. This is a pretty straggly large shrub (8′), but it is fairly well contained, so it is not a nuisance; and even if it were, it’s winter offering would make up for it. zone 6
| Size: 1 gallon | Price: $30.00 |
Windmill Palm (Trachycarpus fortuneii)
My website is totally acting up and not letting me add pictures and this is such a great plant I will send you to a website with info and pics. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trachycarpus_fortunei
| Size: 1 gallon | Price: $30.00 |
| Size: field grown | Price: $115.00 |
Weeping Pea Shrub (Caragana arborescens)
This cutleaf weeping Siberian pea-shrub is about as hardy as any plant I grow. It is covered with small yellow flowers in the spring. It is a fine unusual addition to a small garden. These are grafted at about 3′ and will never get much taller than that. zone 3
| Size: 1 gallon | Price: $30.00 |
Sweet Shrub (Calycanthus florida)
Sweetshrub will get to be a sizable bush (8′ x 8′) with spicy scented flowers in the summer. zone 5
| Size: 1 gallon | Price: $30.00 |
Swedish Columnar Aspen (Populus tremula 'Erecta')
Thirty years ago, new to the Northwest, I spent a weekend in the mountains of central Oregon and wondered why I was always hearing a stream trickle by when there was no water at all. It was the breeze in the leaves of Quaking Aspen when there was no wind to speak of. It was a distinctive and restful sound, and I decided I wanted to grow that tree in my nursery. I did for a while, but there was a big problem. In the fall, the deer (blasted young bucks) barked them all so I gave up. But a few years ago I saw the columnar form and was so taken with it, I decided to try again. Also to offer the tree in a small size. Totally hardy (zone 3) and stunning fall color. I’m excited. Photo thanks to the incomparable Jackie Becker.
