Abies koreana 'Cis'
Abies koreana 'Cis'
Price: $20.00
In Stock

Gallon Pot
This is an fine selection from Holland of Korean Fir. This is very dwarf - just an inch or less of growth per year and a 10 year old plant might be just 8" high by a 12" across. This makes one of those nice rounded buns which I am inclined to pat and Sue could testify to the veracity of that inclination. Great rock garden plant.
Abutilon 'Ginger Bomb'

4" Pot  A selection from our friends at Xera Plants who decided that the ginger colored flowers on this were quite distinct from other Abutilons and gave it this pretty much perfect name.  This will get to about 5' in a growing season and will produce flowers steadily from the time it pushes some growth until frost.  Hardy to 20F or so, zone 8b and can be overwintered indoors during cold snaps here or mulched like heck in the ground if you are in a favorably mild zone.  Against a wall in Seattle, this will rock.  Well-rooted established cuttings pushing growth and flower buds.

4" Pot  Geez, another selection from Xera Plants in Oregon.  Paul and Greg down there claim this is their favorite as it has frosted and glossy pink flowers with subtle suggestions of orange in the mix.  We have this vision of those two guys wearing their favorite Jackie Kennedy pillbox hats going from Abutilon flower to Abutilon flower with their tiny paintbrushes happily pollinating and hybridizing.  Something is going on down there with all of these tasteful selections they are introducing!  To 5' and best lifted in winter and carried over in a cool and frost-free spot.  Speaking of frost, expect these well-rooted and growing cuttings to start blooming very soon and not stop until this fall.

4" Pot  Continuing with the Xera Plants theme, here's another one of their flowering maple selections.  This has orange flowers shot with red veins and will bloom summer and fall on a 3' tall plant. This is best brought in for the winter as it is frost sensitive plus you can continue to enjoy the flowers awhile longer that way.  Well-established cuttings making good growth and showing flower buds.

4" Pot  You guessed it - another Xera Plants release.  This vigorous grower gets up to 4' pretty rapidly and has outward facing white flowers on thin black pedicels.  As with most Abutilons or flowering maples, too much fertilizer gives you lots of growth and not as many flowers so don't be too kind to it!  A great container plant or looking sharp against a wall.  We've found that a cool color like this somehow makes those hotter colors even more intense in comparison.  Best overwintered inside.  These are nicely established cutting pushing good growth and setting flower buds.
Abutilon 'Smoked Salmon'

4" Pot
Another Xera Plants introduction (yes, we're fans) and one we anticipate deriving much pleasure from as we munch our own house-smoked King Salmon from Neah Bay as we sit next to a container featuring this 3' compact yet very floriferous plant whose big flowers are colored like smoked salmon on the exterior and just slightly paler inside.  These hefty rooted cuttings are growing away and will bloom until frost. Zone 8b and can be easily overwintered inside.
Abutilon 'Tangerine Scream'
Abutilon 'Tangerine Scream'
Price: $12.00

4" Pot
Small but profuse flowers shriek flashes of orange at the ends of thin wiry pedicels.  A Xera Plants introduction which if it were from someone else we would be skeptical of its value having seen way too many plants being named but since it is from the Xera boys, we worry not.  Personally, I cannot get enough orange so this helps fill what is apparently a yawning chasm of orange need.  To 5' in a growing season and hardy to zone 8b and will bloom from nearly the commencement of growth until frost.  These are stout cuttings, well rooted and starting to grow.  If we wait too much longer, we'll just sell them here rather trying to put them into boxes.
Arctostaphylos densiflora 'Harmony'
Arctostaphylos densiflora 'Harmony'

4" Pot
An ideal choice for that classic Manzanita look, this cultivar is taller growing than the other densiflora types allowing one to fully appreciate that mahogany bark and gnarled growth. It also sports larger leaves than typical and has light pink flowers in typical abandon. Good drainage, likes it dry.
Arctostaphylos densiflora 'Howard McMinn
Arctostaphylos densiflora 'Howard McMinn'

Quart Pot
Extremely handsome big evergreen shrub to 10'x10' or more with classic mahogany bark peeling to reveal that much loved Hi-Gloss finish on the trunk and branches.  Pink buds in spring open to white urn-shaped flowers followed by clusters of russet not messy-at-all fruit which has some avian appeal. . Leaves are held perpendicular to the sun to conserve water which is an adaptation to summer heat and low or no rainfall.  So no mollycoddling whatsoever with this one.  Well-drained soil of low fertility and don't water once established and much as we love mulching with manure, don't on this one or any other shrubby Arctostaphylos.  There really are plants whose main requirement is that you do nothing except admire.

4" Pot  A very drought tolerant Manzanita and one of the best pink flowered densiflora types.  This was selected out of a hybrid swarm for its sheer floriferousness if that is a word.  Taller than wide and a fast grower.  These have done fine in Portland and Seattle and the leaner the soil and the sharper the drainage, the better.

4" Pot  One of the best of the bigger Manzanitas for the garden, this is tolerant of more "average" garden conditions than many of its kin handling some summer water and heavier soil.  This is also one of the more rapid growers plus one of the hardiest handling temperature drops down to 5F especially if grown lean and drier.  This has nice clusters of white flowers on an open-crowned multi-trunked large shrub to 15'.  When it gets some height, then you can really appreciate the rich reddish-brown bark which makes so many in this genus such desirable plants.  This was discovered as a hybrid seedling in the garden of Dr. Cuthbert Hurd back in the early 70' and has proved itself in a wide variety of gardens over the decades.

Very choice species native to CA and growing on old stablized sand dunes where it can reach 3' high and twice as wide. This could make a nice specimen plant, low hedge or large informal groundcover. Drought and salt tolerant with early season white flowers and birds will eat the fruit.

Arctostaphylos afficionados Paul and Greg at Xera Plants say this is their favorite Manzanita which made it a must-have for us. Fits in the home garden and tolerant of garden conditions, this get just 2' high by 4' across in time. Rocking reddish new growth turns to blue-green. Pink flowers late winter. Drought tolerant.

Easy to grow low evergreen semi-groundcover. This gets just 2' high but about 6' wide. Handsome blue-gray leaves are further set off by the cinnamon red bark and the light sprinklingof small white flowers are just an added pleasure. Drought tolerant and wants good drainage.

Quart Pot
These are cutting-grown from June Sinclair's plant which she received from her long-time friend Hideo Suzuki in Japan. Both of these folks easily qualify for plant legend status especially in the world of species Rhododendrons but their interests range well beyond the Ericaceae. It is one of those cases where if Hideo thinks it is good, then good it is. A plant for the moist shade garden, this will be best in zones 8-9 although we do grow it in our somewhat colder garden where a normal hard winter cuts the growth off but it regrows in the spring. In our frequent mild winters here it does just fine and we get to enjoy the long-lasting red berries on stems just 10"-16" high.

Quart Pot
A most ornamental and tasteful Broom which is sure to evoke admiring comments from any who are fortunate enough to view it. Silken silvery leaves are the perfect foil for the sumptuous yellow flowers in May and June. Tolerant of glacial till and drier conditions. Not invasive or weedy. This used to be in the genus Cytisus but things change. We actually like this new nomenclature which means Silver Cytisus as it is quite apt.

This is pretty much our default tree whenever anyone asks about a good small tree. This has zero bad habits that we know about it and is a rapid grower with small evergreen leaves and minute yellow flowers that smell heavenly of marzipan or something similarly decadent.

A grand small-scale evergreen tree for our area. This is what Boxwood dreams about becoming - much as I dream about being tall and thin, the humble Box envys this Azara with its perfect variegated leaves and tiny yellow flowers packing a big fragrance and all on a small tree frame.

Leonard and Fred thought it prudent to sell us one. To 6'-8' with soft yellow flowers and dripping with clusters of salmon fruit.

Medium Band Pot  Medium Band Pot  Well, what can one say about a plant one knows very little about?  Of course for us, not knowing a plant makes it even more appealing.  This was collected at Lao Cai, Phansi Pan, Vietnam 2930 meters.  Very little information to be had on either possible species other than being a shrub to 6' or 7'.  We're impressed with the thick rounded leaves of a good bluish green.  These are quite young plants but we can see they have potential.  Just like that time when you were much younger and much more single and you were at your favorite bar and the quick glance you gave to that sloe-eyed girl sitting alone was more than enough to confirm the upside possibilities of cultivating a relationship, so to does this plant offer much promise through cultivation in the garden.

Very choice dwarf Birch which Sue brought with her from Vermont. This is native to eastern Canada and we've stumped every hort illuminati as to species and all but one or two as to genus. It looks like some crazy dwarf Ceonothus with dense stems and closely held leaves. Rare? I guess!

A broadly domed woody subshrub that used to be a Senecio but now is placed in the genus Brachyglottis. A New Zealander that loves a sunny well-drained site and fairly covers itself in clusters of small yellow daisy flowers in summer. Evergreen as well. Let's go for tolerant of dry as well.

Intriguing shrubby umbellifer from southern Europe but easily grown here with good drainage and sun. Odd to find an evergreen shrub with dill-like mellow small yellow flowers clustered in rounded umbels. I first saw this in Ann Lovejoy's garden. Prune hard every 3-4 years. A classic coastal plant taking the wind and salt spray.

Quart Pot
Bottlebrush. This is a selected form of the more cold hardy species and has 5" magenta bottlebrush flowers. This would thrive against a hot south wall and will tolerate a range of soils including fairly wet. Evergreen and so far not munched by deer. We've had this freeze to the ground in the disaster that was November 2010 but it regrew from the base. Our plant was growing in rich soil and was still in active growth when it got hammered. Leaner conditions going into fall will impart more cold tolerance.

Bottlebrush. Fun and very hardy selection that has willowy and twisting branchlets sporting 2" light yellow flower brushes on the branch tips all pointing willy-nilly for a wild Medusal effect. Length of bloom is longer on older plants so it is true that some things get better with age. I feel that way about Sue and another month o the diet, she'll feel the same about me.. Happy in nearly any soil and happiest with regular water. Not deer fodder.

It just kills us to sell any of these fantastic alpine Bottlebrushes from Australia's highest summit. Dwarf and hardy, these get to be just 3' high domes of evergreen foliage with 3" creamy bottlebrush flowers in late spring. Pest and deer proof. Xeric. No maintenance. Good drainage.
