Retail listings 2012 by USDA zone, as of April 5 - please check for current availability Jasminum mesnyi 'Full Moon' Also known as Jasminum primulinum, a mounding shrub to 4-5 ft or a vine to 10 ft or more, these with green leaves and some gold variegation. But the flowers are bright yellow and double, very striking from spring through autumn. Sun for best color but very adaptable to shade. Drought tolerant though appreciates occasional summer water in dry climates. Frost hardy to 10F, the bottom of USDA zone 8. Shared with us by Ted Stephens of Nurseries Carolinianus. 6in @ $16 Oleaceae Jasminum mesnyi 'Gold Tip' primrose jasmine Similar to Jasminum mesnyi 'Full Moon' but with leaves that are variegated gold and green, creating a mounding texture. Also a mounding shrub to 4-5 ft or a vine to 10 ft or more. Sun for best color but very adaptable to shade. Cheerful, too. Flowers are similar as well, pale yellow appearing from spring through autumn. Drought tolerant though appreciates occasional summer water in dry climates. Frost hardy to 10F, the bottom of USDA zone 8. Also known as Jasminum primulinum, 6in @ $14, 1g @ $14 Oleaceae Jubaea chilensis - seed: Chile chilean wine palm Amazingly large trunked palm native to both sides of the Central Valley of Chile. Historically harvested for sweet sap used to make an alcoholic beverage. Semi-hardy in the Northwest; the trick is to give it enough heat accumulation for it to grow! 5g @ $85, 10g @ $285, 15g @ $285 Arecaceae Kniphofia 'Christmas Cheer' christmas cheer poker plant Flowers from mid December to March, with briliant red-orange plumes -- the latest (or earliest-- depending how you look at it) flowering red hot poker! Any lingering hummingbirds are gonna love you. To 2-3 ft tall x 3-4 ft wide in full sun. Needs little summer water; less on the coast. Frost hardy in USDA zone 8. 2g @ $22 Asphodelaceae Lardizabala biternata RCH 425 zabala fruit vine A very attractive, evergreen vine from south central Chile growing in a most reasonable manner to about 10 ft with matte green leaves coated powder blue underneath and small pinkish white flowers in early spring leading to bluish black fruit when more than one clone is about. This collection from Randall Hitchin in 2005 is good where a vine is needed that won’t eat the world. Frost hardy and remaining evergreen to the bottom of USDA zone 8 in well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade. Good container spiller. 6in @ $16 Lardizabalaceae Laurus nobilis 'Aurea' golden bay For the culinary gardener -- a densely branched, evergreen tree, 6-15 ft wide x 10-30 ft tall with bright yellow, aromatic leaves that can season soups and stews. Small, yellowish flowers and black, fruit. Native to the Mediterranean in moist valleys, so well-drained soil, sun to part shade, and some summer moisture is best, at least until well established. Frost hardy in USDA zones 8-11. 2g @ $16 Lauraceae Cistus Nursery ◆ 22711 NW Gillihan Rd ◆ Portland, OR 97231 ◆ (503) 621-2233 ◆ info@cistus.com 146
Retail listings 2012 by USDA zone, as of April 5 - please check for current availability Lavatera olbia 'Aurea' tree mallow Shrubby mallow with golden leaves -- actually variegated in green and gold, but, in the sun, the gold color shines -- and red-purple flowers beginning in spring to early summer and continuing into fall. Reaches 3-5 ft tall and wide in sun to part shade - perhaps with protection from the hottest western sun -- with regular summer water, though once established tolerates some summer drought. Brightens any garden spot. Evergreen in mild winters; deciduous in prolonged cold. Frost hardy in USDA zone 8. 1g @ $12 Malvaceae Ledebouria 'Gary Hammer' spotted squill A charming version of the common squill, this South African form has wonderful foliage, long narrow, graygreen leaves, evenly spotted and lasting for up to three months before dormancy arrives. Forms clumps to only 6" tall x 20" wide. The flowers are a pale blue and proliferate cheerfully. Sun and dry summers, though summer moisture is tolerated. Don’t be fooled, hardier than they look! Frost hardy to a bit below 10F, upper USDA zone 7. Does well in containers. 4in @ $11 Liliaceae Libertia ixioides 'Taupo Blaze' PP18 486 taupo libertia Stunning leaves, nearly brick-red infused with cooper-orange, and more olive-green tones in summer. Very nice. Selected from L. ixiodes 'Taupo Sunset' by Phillip Smith of Taupo, New Zealand, and introduced to the United States only in the past few years. Leaves are stiff and erect leaves, to 18" tall, gradually forming clumps to 1-2 ft. Clusters of 3-petaled, white flowers rise above the foliage in spring and produce attractive yellow-orange seed pods. Sun to part shade in well-drained soil with occasional summer water. Frost hardy to a bit below 10F, just below USDA zone 8. Good in containers and particularly handsome when backlit. 6in @ $14 Iridaceae Libertia peregrinans orange flag Odd iris relative from New Zealand with flaming orange foliage to 1 ft tall and handsome, flattened, upwardfacing white flowers. Slowly spreads to fill its space. Full to half sun with moisture. Excellent in containers. Frost hardy to mid USDA zone 8. 1g @ $12 Iridaceae Libertia peregrinans 'Gold Leaf' new zealand iris Introduced from New Zealand in about 2006 this evergreen “flag” makes spreading clumps of plants, to 18” tall, with dainty, iris-like foliage tinted a golden-orange that is more intense in winter. Slightly lean soil and bright light for best color. White spring flowers produce clusters of black fruit, attractive against the foliage. Able to withstand wet soil and all but severe drought. Another good container specimen and/or knitter. Frost hardy to the low end of USDA zone 8. 1g @ $12 Iridaceae Lophomyrtus x ralphii 'Sundae' Lovely evergreen shrub from New Zealand, to 8-12 ft tall x 4-8 ft wide, the foliage rounded and puckered with creamy margins, turning to shades of maroon in winter. Small white flowers appear in summer. Best in bright light with good drainage and regular summer moisture. Frost hardy in upper USDA zone 8. 4D @ $7 Myrtaceae Cistus Nursery ◆ 22711 NW Gillihan Rd ◆ Portland, OR 97231 ◆ (503) 621-2233 ◆ info@cistus.com 147
