Rosa banksia 'Purezza' repeating white bank’s rose<br />
This cross between the miniature ‘Tom Thumb' and Rosa banksiae var. lutescens is a rather large, vigorous,<br />
repeat blooming rambler or climber, to 15-20 ft, with large and abundant white flowers -- very close to a<br />
double flowering Bank’s rose. Thornless <strong>as</strong> well and resistant to black spot, mildew and rust! Blooms on old<br />
wood so e<strong>as</strong>ily pruned after flowering. Provide full sun and plentiful water then stand back and enjoy. Frost<br />
hardy in <strong>USDA</strong> <strong>zone</strong> 7, remaining completely evergreen in <strong>zone</strong> 8.<br />
2g @ $22 Rosaceae<br />
Rosmarinus <strong>of</strong>ficinalis 'Calvor's Sicilian'<br />
Named on September 11, 2009, this lovely new rosemary from our friend Calvor Palmeteer, <strong>of</strong> Victoria, came<br />
from his grandmother's garden in Vancouver, BC, having been brought there many years ago from Sicily.<br />
Densely upright with deep blue winter flowers, yet spilling gracefully with little provocation, over walls or<br />
other suitable spots. Sun and good drainage with little summer water. H<strong>as</strong> taken 0 degrees F, <strong>USDA</strong> <strong>zone</strong> 7,<br />
on numerous occ<strong>as</strong>ions. WOW!<br />
6in @ $12 Lamiaceae<br />
Rosmarinus <strong>of</strong>ficinalis 'Foresteri''<br />
Particularly green and fragrant foliage marks this rosemary selection. Spring flowers are the typical blue. To<br />
2-3 ft tall and semi-upright. An excellent culinary variety. Sun and well-drained soil with little summer water<br />
once established. Frost hardy in <strong>USDA</strong> <strong>zone</strong> 7.<br />
1g @ $11 Lamiaceae<br />
Rubus lineatus bubble plant<br />
The Chinese named this "bubble plant" for its clusters <strong>of</strong> red fruit; we just call it stunning! A striking plant for<br />
the half shaded garden with pleated, evergreen leaves, silky smooth green on top with silvery undersides, on<br />
arching stems to 6-10 ft tall. Lovely on a high bank where the silvery undersides can be seen mixing with the<br />
green. White flowers become red, r<strong>as</strong>pberry-like fruits - but it's about the foliage! Very resilient. Enjoys some<br />
summer water. Cold hardy in <strong>USDA</strong> <strong>zone</strong>s 7.<br />
2g @ $24 Rosaceae<br />
Sabal minor - OK collection dwarf palmetto<br />
Hard to believe, but the seed for these plants w<strong>as</strong> collected from its northernmost native stand in Oklahoma.<br />
[shiver] The trunk runs underground & only the leaves are visible. Large 3 ft fans <strong>of</strong> blue green fronds, very<br />
stiff. Full sun where it can accumulate heat, such <strong>as</strong> near concrete. Needs some summer water. Very hardy in<br />
<strong>USDA</strong> <strong>zone</strong> 7 and possibly <strong>as</strong> low <strong>as</strong> upper <strong>zone</strong> 5 with mulch.<br />
2g @ $28, 5g @ $47 Arecaceae<br />
