Retail listings 2012 by USDA zone, as of April 5 - please check for current availability Callicarpa japonica 'Inagali' japanese beautyberry Diminutive beauty berry, to only 4.5 ft tall x 2-3 ft wide, with abundant pale lilac berries in autumn on a smaller scale plant than most found on the market. A deciduous addition to the garden's autumn colors, the vibrant lemon yellow leaves creating a great contrast to the berries. Easy in full sun to half shade with regular summer for best fruiting. Frost hardy in USDA zone 5. Excellent container plant. 2g @ $24 Lamiaceae Calluna vulgaris 'Silver Knight' scotch heather A heather with silver foliage and purple-pink flowers in summer, a ground-covering, evergreen, shrubby perennial, to only 12-18" tall spreading to 18-24" wide. Easy in sun to part shade in the dry garden where the tiny leaves provide a silver-blue color in summer adding lavender tones in winter. Can be sheared after flowering to maintain density. Very drought tolerant needing summer water only to establish but accepting of occasional drinks. Easy and frost hardy to -20F, USDA zone 5. 1g @ $11 Ericaceae Carex platyphylla 'Blue Satin' A wonderful introduction by Woodlanders Nursery and related to Carex plantaginea. Though frost hardy below USDA zone 5, above zone 7 it remains evergreen with iridescent blue-green leaves glowing in even the deepest of shade. A great contrast to yellows in the garden. Regular moisture, full shade to dappled sun. Cut back in early spring to renew growth. 6in @ $12 Cyperaceae Cercis occidentalis california or western redbud Lovely small tree or large shrub, 10-15 ft tall x 12 ft wide, from the southwestern USA. Leathery rounded leaves, green with paler undersides. Clusters of rose-pink flowers in spring. Little summer water once established. Cold hardy in USDA zone 5-9. 1g @ $12 Fabaceae Chaenomeles 'Oyashima' flowering quince Lovely little quince, to only about 4 ft tall, with compact, spineless, and somewhat undulating branches that produce an abundance of double white flowers in winter through spring. One of the most asked after quinces in our garden. For us sometimes flowers as early as the new year, thereby forming wonderful winter forcing for cut flowers. Full sun to dappled shade. Though drought tolerant, some summer moisture in dry climates improves bud set. The only problem we have seen in our garden is a propensity to being run over by large trucks if planted too close to the drive… Frost hardy in USDA zone 5. 2g @ $24, 5g @ $42 Rosaceae Chaenomeles japonica 'Atsuya Hamada' flowering quince A gorgeous quince with dark maroon-red, nearly black flowers, this from a wild collection by Pacific Northwest plantsman Roy Davidson on the slopes of Mount Fuji. Early spring bloom lasts over a long period and attracts lots of admiring attention. For full to half sun with regular summer water. These "must-have" plants reach 10 ft or so. Frost hardy in USDA zone 5 and possibly colder. 2g @ $28 Rosaceae Cistus Nursery ◆ 22711 NW Gillihan Rd ◆ Portland, OR 97231 ◆ (503) 621-2233 ◆ info@cistus.com 20
Retail listings 2012 by USDA zone, as of April 5 - please check for current availability Chamaecyparis thyoides 'Red Star' red star white cedar A small evergreen with a columnar habit, to about 4-5 ft tall x 1.5 ft wide in 10 years, eventually 15-20 ft tall and narrow. The cultivar name ‘Red Star’ refers to the dense and delicate, star-shaped, blue-green foliage that turns to a rich, warm purple-red in winter light. Sun for best color or part shade with lean, well-drained soil and regular summer water. Frost hardy in USDA zone 5. 2g @ $28 Cupressaceae Clematis montana var. rubens 'Tetrarose' Large pink-magenta flowers with a delicate powdery fragrance bloom against the bronzy new growth in spring. The flowers are long lasting and carried on the vine in generous masses. Easily grown on a trellis or through support of a tree or other scaffolding, reaching 25 ft in time. Provide good soil, sun to part sun with summer water. Frost hardy in USDA zone 5. A good classic flowering vine and favorite of many. 1g @ $16 Ranunculaceae Cornus sericea 'Budd's Yellow' yellow twig dogwood 1g @ $11 Cornaceae Cotinus coggygria 'Golden Spirit' golden smoke bush Making the rounds for a couple of years now, this mid-sized smoke bush, growing to about 8 ft, has the richest golden-yellow leaves, that, rather than toasting in our hot summers, burnish an ever-so-slight orange...we like that! Dense foliage produces airy pink flowers that suggest the common name of smoke bush and brilliant fall foliage colors of pink, orange, and yellow. Growing 8+ ft x 8 + ft and flowering in May-July, the shrubs like full sun to part shade, lean, well-drained soil, and some summer water - though quite drought tolerant once established. Can sulk in heavy wet clay or too much fertility. Easily stooled to create an exuberant perennial. Frost hardy in USDA zone 5. 2g @ $32 Anacardiaceae Cupressus bakeri modoc or baker cypress Native to northern California and southern Oregon, this slow growing cypress -- to 50 ft in several generations -- does well in tough, sunny situations as long as the soil is well-drained and it gets water until established. Foliage is Gray-blue, somewhat pendulous foliage, aromatic twigs, and red bark, are just a few of the pluses. Cold hardy to USDA zone 5. 5g @ $52 Cupressaceae Cylindropuntia viridiflora santa fe cholla An unusual and rare form of cholla with lovely apricot flowers surrounded by green to brownish red tepals -the colors variable and exciting. Found just north of Santa Fe, New Mexico, these shrubby creatures, to 3-4 ft tall x 4-5 ft wide, are dense with narrow, multibranched stems, each stem ending in a whorl of joints --all with elongated tubercles and and sharp spines creating a distinctly prickly texture. Blooms in July. Full sun and lean, sandy soil that drains well is best. Drought tolerant but accepts occasional summer water happily. Frost hardy in USDA Zone 5. 4D @ $14 Cactaceae Cistus Nursery ◆ 22711 NW Gillihan Rd ◆ Portland, OR 97231 ◆ (503) 621-2233 ◆ info@cistus.com 21
