Retail listings 2011 by USDA zone, as of Sept 5 - please check for current availability Coreopsis grandiflora 'Sunfire' Sunfire is an award winning version of a familiar plant, this one blooming earlier and longer than others and tolerating more heat as well. Drought tolerant and tolerant of poor soils.... what could be easier? Or prettier than the 2" flowers with golden-orange petals and burgundy colors at the base. To just 16" tall forming clumps to 18" wide. Perfect for cut flowers. Sun and well-drained soil and occasional summer water for best performance. Frost hardy in USDA zone 4. 4in @ $5 Asteraceae Cornus sericea 'Hedgerows Gold' red twig dogwood Bright red stems color the winter landscape after the leaves are gone. This deciduous shrub, to 6 x 6 ft, has green leaves with an irregular golden edge, foliage that brings summer colors as well. Best in bright light with protection from afternoon’s hottest sun. Regular summer water. Frost hardy in USDA zone 4. 6in @ $14 Cornaceae Delosperma ‘Kelaidis’ PP 13876 mesa verde ice plant In a word, “Gorgeous.” Coppery-pink petals shine from spring through fall on this tough little evergreen groundcover. This plant was selected from a collection of Delosperma cooperi at the Denver Botanic Garden in 1998. Perfect for the sunny rock garden. Works well in containers too. Plant in full sun in well-drained soil. Cold hardy to -30 F. USDA zone 4. 1g @ $11 Aizoaceae Delosperma congestum ‘Gold Nugget’ ice plant We found this ice plant growing at 10,000 ft elevation just east of Sani Pass on the border of South Africa and Lesotho, forming a dense growing cushion of only 1" tall by 10" wide, with stunning yellow flowers. These have become popular in the mountain states (think Denver) for their extreme cold hardiness (-20F) when soil is well drained. Tough and pretty in the sun. Frost hardy to the bottom of USDA zone 5. 4in @ $5 Aizoaceae Delosperma sutherlandii Pointy, succulent foliage and bright pink summer flowers form mats in the sunny garden with little summer water. Good groundcover for the dry garden. Frost hardy to-30F, USDA zone 4. 4in @ $4 Aizoaceae Elaeagnus ‘Quicksilver’ silverbush eleagnus Long sought and under delivered deciduous shrub with stunning silver foliage and early spring flowers with the aroma of vanilla. This chance seedling, discovered and named by British plantsman, Roy Lancaster, reaches an eventual 6-8 ft but can be kept much lower through pruning. Can also be stooled on occasion to create a dense perennial. A very good plant in cold or wet climates that often can’t accommodate silver foliage. Needs decent drainage and, though drought tolerant, enjoys occasional summer water. Frost hardy in USDA zone 4. 2g @ $24 Elaeagnaceae Cistus Nursery ◆ 22711 NW Gillihan Rd ◆ Portland, OR 97231 ◆ (503) 621-2233 ◆ info@cistus.com 10
Retail listings 2011 by USDA zone, as of Sept 5 - please check for current availability Equisetum scirpoides dwarf scouring rush Dwarf version of the common horsetail reaching only 6-10" tall and spreading to form a matted groundcover to 3-4 ft wide. Thin, dark green stems have black banding at the nodes -- a nice texture. Happy in sun or shade as long as there is water around. Can be submerged up to 2". Like its larger cousins, a vigorous spreader, so best restrained in containers. Frost hardy to -40F, USDA zone 4. 1g @ $12 Equisetaceae Euonymus europaeus ‘Red Ace’ spindle tree The most expensive plant Exuberant Garden’s Dorothy Rodal ever purchased, having fallen in love with its scarlet seed pods that open to reveal dusky orange seeds -- just as everyone does who sees it. And now we have enough to share. A large, deciduous shrub to small tree, to 8-10 ft tall x 8 ft wide, with 3" leaves that turn a flaming, crimson red in autumn. The flowers in small, yellow-green clusters are not showy but produce the exquisite and abundant fruit that IS showy. Native to Europe and western Asia. Frost hardy in USDA zone 4. 2g @ $28 Celastraceae Euphorbia amygdaloides 'Purpurea' 4in @ $4 Euphorbiaceae Festuca glauca 'Elijah Blue' Fine textured blue buns of grass, to only 1 ft tall and as wide, for bright sun and well-drained soil. Drought tolerant once established. Trim back to 3-4" in spring for renewed growth and color. Evergreen in Portland. A good ground cover in the dry garden with clumps planted close for best effect. Frost hardy in USDA zone 4. 1g @ $9 Poaceae Festuca idahoensis 'Siskiyou Blue' Wonderfully handsome, slate-blue grass, a hybrid between F. idahoensis and F. ovina-glauca selected by the Berkeley Botanic Garden. Grows in clumps to 15" wide, the thin, blue blades rising to 12-18" with browin, spring flowers that rise 6" or so higher. Sun to part shade in any soil that isn't consistenly moist. Needs little summer water once established. Forst hardy to -30F, USDA zone 4. 4D @ $5 Poaceae Forsythia x intermedia 'Gold Leaf' Forsythia is famous for its bright display of bright yellow flowers on bare branches in late winter and early spring. An old garden standby indeed. This cultivar is showy after the blooms have faded, having goldengreen leaves instead of the typical green leaves. Grows to 4-6 ft tall and wide in Full Sun to Part Sun. Provide some summer water where dry. Frost hardy to USDA zone 4. 5g @ $38 Oleaceae Geranium phaeum ‘Margaret Wilson’ An extremely handsomely variegated cultivar of the easy to grow black widow geranium. Half to full shade with normal water. Black flowers hover over brilliantly variegated foliage. Hardy in USDA zone 4. 6in @ $12 Geraniaceae Cistus Nursery ◆ 22711 NW Gillihan Rd ◆ Portland, OR 97231 ◆ (503) 621-2233 ◆ info@cistus.com 11
