This is a bushy, smaller-growing species with stunning, smooth, mahogany bark. The distinct narrow leaves are a lovely, silvery-scaly and olive-green in contrast to the small tubular bright yellow flowers which appear in masses in late spring. Grown from seed collected in the wild, these are nice large plants.
One of the hardiest of the scheffleras that have come into cultivation recently (along with fengii and taiwaniana). Native to the temperate forests of south-central and eastern China, this species has proven to be remarkably hardy, having survived undamaged for many years now in numerous gardens in the Pacific NW. The very large palmate leaves are on three-foot-long petioles and have five individual leaflets - each of which can grow to twenty inches in length - one of the largest leaves of any temperate woody plant. Absolutely massive umbels of small flowers in the autumn followed by purple-black berries.
A stunning perennial Asian Mayapple with large and leathery foliage. Each boldly toothed leaf is attached to its stem in the middle (like an umbrella). The new growth emerges mottled with chocolate-brown and the deep pink flowers are borne singly on a short stalk from the top of each large leaf. These are followed by large red fruits. Looks best in shade with a rich moist soil for the largest and most robust foliage. A very special feature in the garden.
A very choice small-scale groundcover with small and round, softly hairy but shiny evergreen leaves and clusters of light purple, pendant and fringed flowers held above the tight mass of leaves in early spring. A very slowly spreading plant that will perform best in shade with plenty of moisture through the growing season. A primrose relative from the forests and slopes of the Pyrenees. Rarely offered for sale. This is the easiest and most vigorous species in the genus (although still very slow!).
This is a rarely cultivated shrubby species of mountain ash. This smaller growing species has pinnate leaves with delicate and fine textured leaflets that provide brilliant fall foliage color. The fruits are like clusters of tiny dark red apples in the autumn. The stock plants in the garden are grown from seed collected from the wild. The species is widespread from the eastern Himalaya into southwestern China where it occurs in the mountains with conifers and Rhododendron species.
This is a rarely cultivated deciduous blueberry native to the Black Sea region of SW Asia and adjacent SE Europe. A mounding species with bright red fall foliage color. This is a great companion plant for rhododendrons. Best performance in sun or light shade with good drainage. Grown from seed collected wild in Turkey. Our first offering in over twenty years.
