Landscape

Uses Notes:

Great for use in landscapes as an edging plant, mixed in the perennial border or in a container (plant in ground in fall.)

Maintenance Notes:

Prefers well drained soil but is adaptable to many soil types. It is best to prune right after flowering ceases, but pruning is rarely needed. Slow growth rate. Will continue to flower sporadically on the current season’s growth. Medium moisture. Browning leaves in early fall are a result of the plant going into dormancy earlier than most weigela. This is a benefit letting the plant shut down earlier and prepare for winter. In southern states, plant in a partial shade location.

Like most variegated plants, occasional reversions to the original green form may occur. These should be pruned out as needed.

This dwarf masterpiece is a sport of Weigela florida ‘Tango’. It is the first dwarf variegated Weigela to be introduced. Its tight habit and colorful foliage make it very versatile. Variegation changes depending on light exposure – whiter variegation in shade and pink variegation in full sun. Possible applications include an artistic drift along the edge of an annual or perennial bed or as an accent piece in a container. My Monet creates poetic beauty in any landscape and adds a splash of color to semi shady areas.

Everyone who has seen this beauty falls in love at first sight. Use it like you would use Coleus, to add season long color, but don’t worry about replanting next spring. This little shrub comes back year after year.

My Monet has won numerous awards, including a Gold Medal from the Boskoop Royal Horticulture Society and a Gold Medal from Plantarium.

Absolutely love My Monet!! So much so, I’ve about bought all of the local nursery’s supply, mixing them into my perennial beds. Proven Winners are my plants and shrubs of choice. Marilee, OH.

Strawberry Sundae® is a delicious new compact hydrangea. Flowers emerge creamy white in mid-summer, change to pink as night temperatures drop and finally to strawberry red. The fantastic flower color lasts well into fall. With its compact habit, this hydrangea adds spectacular color and impressive flowers to small space gardens or containers. It is also excellent for fresh cut and dried flower arrangements.

Features

Dwarf ‘Limelight’ hydrangea! Compared to its famous sibling ‘Limelight’, Little Lime hardy hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata) may seem like a pipsqueak. Don’t let this petite shrub fool you. While maintaining its short stature of 3-5’ tall and wide, it really packs a visual punch in the garden. In summer, lime green blooms open on strong stems – no drooping here. As it ages, rich pink coloring emerges to prolong the show through fall. Little Lime hydrangea is small enough to grow in containers and also stands out as a bold mass planting. Its bright bloom coloration makes it an excellent choice for cut flower gardens and can be used fresh or dried. This reliable performer blooms on new wood, so a quick trim in late winter or early spring will encourage fresh growth and an abundance of buds. Like most hardy hydrangeas, it is hardy to Zone 3 and does best in full sun or part shade. Summer flowers open soft green and turn pink and burgundy in fall. 2016 – Selected as landscape plant of the year 2015 – Awarded a Gold Medal from The Royal Boskoop Horticultural Society. 2013 – Awarded Plantarium Gold Medal 2013 – Green is Life Bronze Medal 2011 – American Nursery & Landscape Association (ANLA) Management Clinic Best New Plant award.

Amelanchier × grandiflora 'Autumn Brilliance' Shrub form Amelanchier x grandiflora is a hybrid cross between two species of North American serviceberry, namely, A. arborea (downy serviceberry) and A. laevis (Allegheny serviceberry). It is known in commerce today by several showy cultivars. This is a small, deciduous, usually multi-trunked understory tree or tall shrub which typically matures to 15-20’ tall. Flowers bloom in April followed by edible fruits (3/8" diameter) in June (hence the sometimes-used common name of Juneberry for amelanchiers). Berries resemble blueberries in taste and may be used in jams, jellies and pies. Finely-toothed, oval-lanceolate leaves (to 3" long) emerge with bronze tints in spring, mature to dark green from late spring throughout summer before finally turning brilliant red to orange-red in fall. Common Name: apple serviceberry Type: Tree Family: Rosaceae Zone: 4 to 9 Height: 15.00 to 25.00 feet Spread: 15.00 to 25.00 feet Bloom Time: April Bloom Description: White Sun: Full sun to part shade Water: Medium Maintenance: Low Suggested Use: Flowering Tree Flower: Showy Leaf: Good Fall Attracts: Birds Fruit: Showy, Edible
