Retail listings 2011 by USDA zone, as of Sept 5 - please check for current availability Asplenium scolopendrium hart's tongue fern Evergreen fern with bright green, leathery, tongue-shaped fronds forming erect clumps up to 1-1.5 ft tall and wide. This European native for part to full shade is best grown in rich, very well-drained soil with average summer moisture. Thrives in alkaline, limestone soils as well. Frost hardy to -20F, USDA zone 5. 6in @ $12 Aspleniaceae Ballota acetabulosa greek horehound Fuzzy, velvety, aromatic, silver-gray leaves are the reason for growing this hardy perennial. To 12-18" tall and 2-3 ft wide. Mid summer flowers are white. Best, in full sun with very little summer water once established. Doesn't like overwatering at all. Frost hardy to -20F, USDA zone 5. 1g @ $11 Lamiaceae Berberis replicata - of horticulture This clone from the UK via Western Hills Nursery is perhaps more bronze leaved that the wild species. Evergreen, arching shrub, to 3 ft tall, with yellow spines, pale yellow flowers in late spring, and red berries ripening to black in autumn. Handsome foliage. For full to part sun in well-drained soil and average summer water. Frost hardy in USDA zone 5. 5g @ $47 Berberidaceae Berberis thunbergii - good purple And a very good purple it is! Though it well might have a more “proper” name, this plant, given to us by horticulturist Neil Bell, illicits such admiration from garden visitors that we felt a duty to reproduce it -- and thus it remains “good purple” for the time being. The overlapping, 1”, velvety, deep burgundy leaves are held late into the season on this 6 ft, fountain-like shrub, providing a rich tapestry of fall color, for us in late November and December. Rich yellow flowers against the dark leaves are also an attraction in spring as are the small, orange-red fruits that adorn the arching branches in late summer and fall. Full sun to bright shade and regular summer water. Frost hardy to USDA zone 5 or 6. Not recommended to the Northeast because of invasive potential. 2g @ $24 Berberidaceae Blechnum spicant deer fern Native to Europe and western North America, this tough fern has shiny, evergreen foliage reaching to about 18” x 2 ft wide. Best in part to full shade in rich soil with average moisture. Somewhat drought tolerant once established. Spreads by creeping rhizomes that can be divided in the spring. Frost hardy in USDA zone 5. 1g @ $11 Blechnaceae Buxus sempervirens 'Compact' Compact form of our favorite boxwood, evergreen and remaining smallish, to only 5 ft tall or so and easily trimmed to any size. Makes a perfect edging for a path or low hedge. Prefers well-drained soil in sun to part shade, dappled or afternoon shade and enjoys regular water in summer drought tolerant if well established with deep roots. Frost hardy to -30F, USDA zone 5. 2g @ $28 Buxaceae Cistus Nursery ◆ 22711 NW Gillihan Rd ◆ Portland, OR 97231 ◆ (503) 621-2233 ◆ info@cistus.com 24

Perfect for part shade to shade in rich soil with regular summer moisture. Frost hardy to -20F, USDA zone 5. 4in @ $5 Cyperaceae Carex platyphylla ‘Blue Satin’ A wonderful introduction by Woodlanders Nursery and related to Carex plantaginea.
