CORYLUS 'RED MAJESTIC' . This is a new cultivar of Harry Lauder's Walking Stick from Europe. The plant is contorted everywhere (We haven't checked the roots yet.). The difference is C. 'Red Majestic' has deep purple foliage so will make a striking plant year round. This is one of the first offerings of C. 'Red Majectic' and these plants are layers so there will not be any understock to prune. 1 gal. $24.00 COTINUS C. 'GOLDEN SPIRIT' - This plant had been the holy grail for several years. We were first attracted to C. 'Golden Spirit' through English magazines, but couldn't find it in the U.S. We started seeing a few plants in public gardens by 2001. I finally found a source in 2001. The foliage is round and smaller than many of the C. coggygria cultivars. The distinctive difference is the golden color of the foliage which is consistant spring-fall. This plant should be great used in a border with greens and yellows or rich purples. 1 gal. $ 22.00 C. 'GRACE' is one of our best discoveries. We first listed C. 'Grace' in 1993, and are still impressed with how great this shrub can be. We got this Hillier named hybried in the mid 1980's as a one foot cutting. Our original plant is cut back hard each spring to 6' and by the end of the season is 12-14' high. The large mid purple leaves are pretty all summer, and by fall they turn the most amazing pink, red, orange and purple. As a cut back plant we get only a few flowers (no great loss) but the foliage is superb. 1 gal. $ 22.00 C. 'YOUNG LADY' ® - This green leafed C. coggygria has many large clusters of flowers (smoke) even on 6 inch plants. Discovered by Hendrik Kolster of Boskoop, Holland. The green leaves have orange-red fall color. The plant probably will not get over 8-10 feet because of the heavy flower production. Limited 1 gal. $ 20.00 2 gal. $ 25.00 COTONEASTER COOPERI. A very low growing cotoneaster that will mound up to about 3-4" tall. If a rock is in the way C. cooperi will follow the shape of the stone. The evergreen leaves are really tiny and deep green. Great as a container plant or even the smallest rock garden. The white flowers will be followed by rich red fruit like rubies among the green foliage. 1 gal. $ 8.00 CRATAEGUS MONOGYNA INERMIS 'COMPACTA' - A dwarf hawthorn which is very compact and full. Our 15 year old is 4 feet tall and 18 inches across. Very dark foliage, but so far no flowers or fruit. 1 gal. $ 25.00 CROCOSMIA - C. 'GEORGE DAVIDSON' - An old cultivar from England with mid yellow flowers in August. 1 gal. $ 12.00 C. 'LADY HAMILTON' - Has a dark green leaf with a purple red flush on the lower portion. The flowers are darker gold with tiny maroon sports at the base of lower petals. Found in 1907 at Powis Castle, Wales. 1 gal. $ 12.00 C. 'SERASEN' - One of our favorites for flower and foliage. The burnt orange flowers have darker maroon centers. 1 gal. $ 12.00 8 C. 'SOLFATARE' - Probably our favorite crocosmia. C. 'Solfatare' has chocolate brown foliage like an iris. The spray like flowers are golden yellow during late July-August. The colors (flowers and foliage) are easy to combine with other plants. We have a good supply of large plants available this year. 1 gal. $ 12.00 C 'STAR OF THE EAST' - Perhaps the biggest flower of any crocosmia. This crocosmia has wonderful lively yellow flowers that are 2" across with an almost white center. The flower petals end up being flat when they are fully open. The foliage is one of the shortest of any crocosmia we grow. 1 gal. $ 12.00 CUNNINGHAMIA LANCEOLATA 'GLAUCA'. The blue needled China fir is always a show stopper in any garden. This large conifer has needles that twist as they come out of the stems. C. lanceolata 'Glauca' will need to be trained to make a leader and form a tree. 1 gal. $ 28.00 CYTISUS BATTANDIERI - The Pineapple Broom comes from Morocco, but has been hardy for 30+ years in Eugene, OR, hardy to -12° F. If given full sun and good drainage this soft gray-green, large shrub will cover itself with flowers. The flowers are dark yellow and smell like fresh pineapple. Our plants in the garden are 15' tall after 10 years. 1 gal. $ 20.00 2 gal. $ 26.00 DAPHNE - D. BHOLUA - Our original plants came from Marshall Olbrich (Western Hills Nsy). This is the largest daphne in the world. It can grow to 20' in shade. Borderline hardiness here. We had our plant outside until 8°F. These great container plants start blooming at Thanksgiving and finish in March. Pleasing, sweet daphne fragrance. 1 gal. $ 18.00 D. HOUTTTEANA. This fairly recent introduction has deep purple leaves year round. The small mounding shrub will get 18-24" tall and will have reddish pink flowers in the spring with a pleasing scent. We ony have a few of this rare plant available. 2 gal. $ 45.00 D. 'JASMINEA' - An exceptionally tiny dwarf daphne. This European native gets perhaps 6-8" tall. The very small foliage is light gray-green. In spring - summer our plant is covered in creamy white deliciously scented flowers. For the very small rock garden or a container. 1 gal. $ 25.00 D. 'LAWRENCE CROCKER' - Named for one of the founders of Siskiyou Rare Plant <strong>Nursery</strong>, Medford, OR. We remember going to Siskiyou in the late 1960's and meeting Mr. Crocker so it was great the Daphne 'Lawrence Crocker' was named for him. The 3" x 12" wide plant has dark green, narrow leaves. The flowers are rich pink purple and occur sporadically all summer. A perfect plant for a rock garden. 1 gal. $ 14.00 D. MEZEREUM - Rough, tough, hardy, but still beautiful. This is probably the hardiest daphne in cultivation. Grows better in Eastern Washington than in our garden. The purple flowers start in January and cover the stems. The flowers are followed by red fruit in late summer. 1 gal. $ 12.00
DAPHNE ODORA 'ALBA' - Similar to D. odora 'Aureomarginata' but doesn't have the yellow margin on the leaves. Flowers are snow white and just as fragrant as the species. 1 gal. $20.00 D. ODORA 'AUREOMARGINATA' - To most people the best fragrance of any shrub. The small purple and white flowers appear in February - April and the scent can be noticed 20 feet away. Makes an evergreen shrub with golden margins on the foliage. Can be kept in a large container. 1 gal. $ 16.00 D. ODORA 'MAE JIMA'. A Japanese selection of this standard of northwest landscapes. D. o. 'Mae Jima' has the same coloring and margins of D. o. 'Aureo Marginata', but the margins are drastically wider. This daphne will bloom as much as D. o. aureo marginata, but will be much more striking year round. We haven't seen this daphne listed before so get this new plant for you garden. 1 gal. $ 37.00 D. RETUSA - This shrub is a very rigid, little gnome of a plant. The fat short stems grow slowly into an 18" rounded shrublet. The flowers are sweetly scented and are purple outside and white inside. Needs good drainage and plenty of light. Since D. retusa is slow growing the plants for sale are small. 1 gal. $ 15.00 D. ROSETTII - (D. cneorum X D laureola, subsp. philippi). Found in 1927, this natural hybrid comes from Pyrenees. The reddish flowers are rarely produced but the rounded dwarf form makes D. rosettii worth growing. 1 gal. $ 15.00 DAVIDIA D. INVOLUCRATA 'COLUMNARIUS'. This dove tree is a rather narrow grower. The foliage is typical dove tree, but the plant stays very coumnar. We don't know how soon these plants will take to bloom but being grafted they will ususally bloom at a younger age than seed grown plants. 2 gal. $ 60.00 D. INVOLUCRATA 'SONOMA' - This flowering dove tree came from Sonoma Horticultural <strong>Nursery</strong>. The original tree had exceptional bracts and luckily the owners got it out into the nursery business. Bracts are 8-10" long and the grafted plants will bloom at 18 inches tall. Any of the plants we are selling can bloom next May. Because of the grafting and scarcity these plants are limited and high priced 1 gal. $ 75.00 DESFONTAINEA SPINOSA - Has holly leaves that everyone asks, "What holly is that?" In the mid summer orange-red flowers with yellow flares appear among the leaves. This plant makes an interesting shrub for the container or in the garden in warmer areas (California, Oregon coast). 1 gal. $ 20.00 DEUTZIA D. 'CHARDONNAY PEARLS' - (D. gracilis 'Duncan' PPAF). This new Canadian import has bright lime yellow foliage all spring and summer. This 3-4' shrub will have pure white flowers which show up well against the greenish yellow foliage. 1 gal. $ 14.00 D. CORYMBOSA' - Has pinkish buds and white flowers in May-June. This six foot plant is covered with these beautiful flowers. 1 gal. $ 14.00 D. 'NIKKO' - A dwarf deutzia that only gets to 18" tall and 36" across. The dark green foliage gets covered by 9 Deutzia 'Nikko' (cont.) thousands of of white flowers. This easy to grow plant is very adaptable to sun, light and shade and is hardy. 1 gal. $ 10.00 DICHORA FIBRIFUGA - This hydrangea relative has small bright blue flowers in mid summer. The flowers don't have sterile floret like hydrangeas. The flowers are followed by shiny blue fruit in the fall. We have two forms available: UBC (University of British Columbia) form is low growing with brilliant blue fruitt 5 gal. $ 40.00 Dichora versicolor has a broader leaf and much larger size than the UBC for. Both are lovely plants. 5 gal. $ 40.00 DIERAMA PULCHERRIMUM- A small growing (12") species with grassy foliage. The flowers are on nodding stems with deep reddish pink flowers. 3" $ 5.00 DISANTHUS CERCIDIFOLIUS - This is a superb 12'-15' shrub grown for its stunning purple, red, and orange fall color. The heavily veined foliage is very dark green and leathery during summer and in late August starts turning purple and all through the fall just keeps getting better. Disanthus cercidifolius is a member of the hamamelis family and has very small, deep maroon flowers in fall. Has been hardy to at least -20° F. in Illinois. See Michael Dirr's "Manual of Woody Landscape Plants". Disanthus is one of his favorites. 1 gal. $ 20.00 2 gal. $ 26.00 DISPORUM 'NIGHT HERON'. Will get 5-6' tall and has deep purple new growth in spring. The flowers are small white bells in mid spring. D. 'Hight Heron' is a good companion plant in the woodland garden with ferns and hostas. In fall, the foliage will turn a soft peachy yellow before going beneath the soil for winter. 1 gal. $ 12.00 DISTYLIUM D. MYRICOIDES - Larger for us than D. racemosum. The flowers are also red and look like Parrotia persica flowers. 2 gal. $ 20.00. DRIMYS D. LANCEOLATA - This Chilian native has small lanceshaped dark evergreen leaves. The dark foliage is highlighted by the purple-red stems. Plants we've seen are only 6-8' tall, but may get bigger. We grow as a handsome container plant. Plants in Eugene have survived in the ground for many years in more protected areas than in our garden. Flowers are small and white but make a nice show on the plant. 1 gal. $ 15.00 D. LANCEOLATA 'SUZETTE' is just like D. lanceolata with its deep green leaves, dark purple stems, and white flowers. The only difference is that the dark green leaves are splashed with cream and pink year round D. lancelata 'Suzette' will make a pretty and interesting tub specimen. 1 gal $24.00 DRYOPTERIS D. CYCADIANA - Although from China, Japan and Thailand, the books say this fern is very hardy. As the name implies the foliage looks somewhat like a cycad. Needs well drained soil in the shade 1 gal. $ 14.00
