Anna’s Magic Ball TM (T. o. ‘Anna Van Vloten’, ppaf, cbraf)<br />
Dwarf evergreens look great at retail and fill a real void in many<br />
landscapes. This bright golden evergreen ball is like a yellow ‘Danica’,<br />
but with looser foliage and a more block-like habit. From Van Vloten<br />
Nursery in Canada, it has good burn-resistance and holds its color nicely<br />

‘Filiformis’<br />
A unique, semi-dwarf, thread-leaf white cedar. Its variable habit is conical<br />
to broadly pyramidal or even globose. Thread-like leaves much like<br />
Chamaecyparis pisifera ‘Filifera’ but it’s much hardier.<br />

‘Filip’s Magic Moment’<br />
(T. o. ‘Filip’s Magic Moment’, pp#21,974, cbraf)<br />

‘Glauca Prostrata’ Compact<br />

silver blue foliage. Use this unique Korean thuja in place of junipers or<br />
other low growing conifer. USDA 5, AHS 7, 18 inches, gr 1<br />
Item #: 83862 - 2 1 /4” • 83864 - 4”<br />
“I just received my 2012 order of plants. Everything was in great<br />
shape, the plants are all well rooted and healthy. Having just taken over<br />
the shrub division this past fall, it was great dealing with everyone at<br />
Spring Meadow. Sara was very helpful in getting the order together and<br />
when ever I had questions, the support from the growers was excellent.<br />
I can’t wait to set down and work on my next order”.<br />
“Thanks for all your help!”<br />
