Retail listings 2012 by USDA zone, as of April 5 - please check for current availability Clematis japonica 'Bokonomosho' Having retrieved this lovely clematis from Japan some time ago and left it growing happily away in our….. less than tended area or stock house, we finally decided we needed more. A diminutive vine, to under 6-8 ft, this form is deciduous with beautifully variegated cream, white and green leaves and pale blue flowers in mid spring. A delicate creature, so would prefer to be planted near or, shall we say, on a shrub or trellis protected from the hottest afternoon sun, where the soil is medium in “richosity”, does not severely dry out, and is not likely to be disturbed. Frost hardy in USDA zone 6. 2g @ $38 Ranunculaceae Corylopsis pauciflora buttercup witch-hazel This Japanese native gets its common name from its large very fragrant lemon yellow flowers in January. A 6 -8 foot deciduous shrub, it is best in an understory situation. Part sun, normal water. 2g @ $38 Hamamelidaceae Corylopsis spicata 'Aurea' golden winterhazel One of the loveliest winterhazels we have come across, to under 10 ft tall with butterscotch-yellow leaves, tinted orange where they meet sun, and pale yellow flowers in mid winter -- all managed with the same grace we have come to expect from the species. Still rare but should be much less so. We suggest dappled shade, occasional summer water where dry, and decently drained soil. Frost hardy in USDA zone 6. 6in @ $18 Hamamelidaceae Cryptomeria japonica 'Dacrydioides' whip-cord japanese cedar Stunning shrub to small tree, to as much as 10-20 ft tall eventually, with long, pendulous branches and graygreen, aromatic foliage that adds brown overtones in winter. Needle-like leaves overlap, creating a rope-like, or whipcord texture. Best in full sun with adequate summer water in soil that drains well. Frost hardy to at least USDA zone 6. 1g @ $17, 2g @ $28 Cupressaceae Cyrtomium falcatum 'Rochfordianum' japanese holly fern Leaves are dark green and glossy on this cultivar, to 2 ft tall forming 2-3 ft, vase-shaped clumps of nearly erect, evergreen fronds. Handsome in part to full shade planted in rich, well-drained soil that is watered regularly in summer. Mulch to maintain consistent moisture. Frost hardy to -10F, USDA zone 6. A fine and frost hardy container specimen. 1g @ $15 Dryopteridaceae Daphne x burkwoodii - low form burkwood daphne Low form of a classic daphne, to 2 ft tall with narrow, 1" green leaves. White flowers, custardy sweet, appear in late winter through mid spring. Perfect for the entrance garden. Evergreen and dense enough to be a fine small hedge. Sun to part shade with good drainage and consistent moisture. Frost hardy in upper USDA zone 6 with reports of much colder places, perhaps zone 4 in protected sites. 6in @ $16 Thymelaeaceae Cistus Nursery ◆ 22711 NW Gillihan Rd ◆ Portland, OR 97231 ◆ (503) 621-2233 ◆ info@cistus.com 44
Retail listings 2012 by USDA zone, as of April 5 - please check for current availability Daphne x houtteana One of our most popular plants, this garden hybrid of D. laureola and D. mezereum is grown both for its gorgeous, semi-evergreen, red-purple leaves as well as its huge clusters of dark lilac, fragrant, spring flowers. Reaches 4 ft tall in full to part sun with good drainage and normal summer water. Cold hardy in USDA zone 6. 4in @ $22 Thymelaeaceae Delosperma cooperi hardy ice planbt South African succulent with fleshy, pointed leaves and bright pink, daisy-like flowers throughout the summer. To only a few inches tall and spreading to form a pleasant mat, often covered completely in flowers during the summer months. Loves sun; requires good drainage, especially during the rainy winter months. Frost hardy to -20F, where dryish in winter or with that excellent drainage. 4in @ $4 Aizoaceae Delosperma nubigenum 'Basutoland' basultoland yellow ice plant An easy and cold hardy ground-covering succulent selected by the Berkeley Botanic Garden, to only 6" tall forming clumps to 2 ft wide that trail over walls or containers or create an colorful mat, the evergreen leaves turning red in winter. Summer flowers are bright yellow daisys nearly covering the plant from late spring into summer. Sun to part shade is best in very well-drained soil with at least occasional summer water once established. Surprisingly frost hardy, accepting temperatures below 0F in USDA zone 6. 4in @ $5 Aizoaceae Erodium 'Stephanie' stephanie cranesbill Very nice, ground-covering geranium, to only a few inches tall and spreading to 14 inches wide with striking, crinkly green leaves and, best of all, simple white flowers with a lovely purple-black marking on the two top petals. Long blooming, this mat forming perennial is easy in full sun to part shade in rich, well-drained soil. Tolerates drought but accepts summer water. Frost hardy in USDA zone 6. 1g @ $14 Geraniaceae Euonymus fortunei 'Emerald Pagoda' This fine-textured, broad-leaved evergreen can reach up to 6 ft in height and seldom exceeds 18" in diameter, providing upright punctuation in the garden with leaves closely held against upright stems. Architectural like a small "Italian Cypress" and thrives even in a dappled shade garden. Part sun with regular summer water. Frost hardy in USDA zone 6. 6in @ $12 Celastraceae Forsythia viridissima var. koreana 'Kumson' From Korea, a new forsythia on the scene, growing to about 4-6 ft and providing creamy yellow flowers in January, for us, in February and March in colder climates. The leaves present the most unique feature, patterned and veined with cream and white, the patterns becoming infused with pink and maroon as the late fall color settles in, for year round-interest rather than the one-shot show that forsythias usually provide. Plant as with other forsythias in sun to dappled shade and provide summer water in dry climes. Frost hardy to USDA zone 6. 1g @ $12 Oleaceae Cistus Nursery ◆ 22711 NW Gillihan Rd ◆ Portland, OR 97231 ◆ (503) 621-2233 ◆ info@cistus.com 45
