These are seedlings from Winter Gold but they don't have the bright yellow stems, rather they have intensely pink and red stems, like Erythocladum.

Generally, madrone species are difficult to keep alive in the nursery for longer than 5-8 years because they're so susceptible to root rot. But this is a robust hybrid, a truly exceptional nursery plant. Drought tolerant, easily grown and attractive reddish flowers accent its handsome, orange-cinnamon bark. The biggest specimen in the US is 45 x 45 ft., but it is generally of smaller stature, a superb selection for CA and sunny south exposures in the PNW.

For the milder parts of the country this evergreen dogwood is a real show stopper. The foliage is deep green and contrast very well with the large, rounded, overlapping white bracts which nearly obscure the foliage. Easily trained to very nice tree form. Fine with strong winds and not bothered by pests.

Medium to large sized fruit of Fuyu type on a smaller tree. Excellent eating. Require 100 hours below 45F.

Very unique, this prostrate form only reaches 18-24 in. tall, but has a spread of 6-8 ft. Fragrant flowers are upward-facing and bloom prolifically from spring to early summer. A far reaching "free spirited" evergreen with fragrant, magnolia-like flowers, Free Spirit is in a class of its own.

Native to upper elevations in the Davis Mountains of West Texas, this evergreen oak is widely adapted, forming shrubs where conditions are harsh - or a 40 ft. tree where more favorable. Deep dark green leaves are backed by white. Under-utilized, this tree is adapted to grow throughout much of the mild West.

One of the hardiest evergreen oaks, its natural range is from the Mediterranean to Western Pakistan. The tree becomes huge and creates deep shade with dense pendulous branching and dark foliage. As the tree grows larger, some branch thinning makes for a pleasant, airy canopy on open-growing specimens. Best host for black truffle culture.

Native range is Southwest Europe and northwest Africa, but it is completely at home in warmer regions of North America. Its corky bark can be sustainably harvested every 10 years or so. Frost sensitive, it must be grown in warm climates. A tree of exceptional ornamental beauty for its bark and handsome foliage.

With few prickles on its stems and clusters of pink flowers, this wild rose thrives in lightly shaded locations and is a good candidate for the ornamental garden. BC south to Northern CA.

Under appreciated for its very show pink flowers that attract multiple pollinators. This is a integral part of our wetland habitants in the West. Willamette Valley ecotype for use in revegetation.

Selected and named by Earl Culley, the original plant was planted sometime in the 1830s by an German immigrant family along the old National Rd in rural Norwich, OH. Still growing strong and is easily hardy to minus 28F; with 180 years of weather records we have solid evidence. It is one of the hardiest selections of pond cypress.

Durable deciduous conifer adapted to colder climates and drier soils than those in its native Southeast. Best planted where it can develop unhindered, as it is naturally a large tree. Amazingly, it thrives from upstate New York to the High Plains of Texas and south to Florida. Lumber is highly prized for its decay resistance. Despite its large stature, its landscape appeal is evident in its lacy foliage texture, which becomes a handsome, distinctive blend of green, yellow and brown in autumn. The shaggy bark and bold architecture of its branches lend striking winter interest. Trouble-free, easy to grow and transplant if root-pruned or containerized.

A weeping Baldcypress selection that distinguishes itself by its leader growing straight up while the branches droop. Fall color is bronze, and the reddish brown bark peels in strips. Tolerates both wet and dry conditions. Much superior to 'Cascade Falls' because it has an upright tendency as opposed to the groundcover character of the former.

Not really a dwarf, but a slow growing, intriguing upright variety. Excellent rock garden plant or focus plant for a water garden, given that it tolerates flooded roots.

Landscape designers love this clone for its stately pyramidal form. A fast grower with a broad spreading crown, it will get 50+ ft. tall but maintain a dependable central leader. A fast grower, it's much broader than Shawnee Brave.

Narrow, perfectly upright form; mature size 70 ft. x 18 ft. with minimum leaf litter due to its fine-textured foliage.
