Lilac - Thumbelina®
Thumbelina® Lilac, Syringa 'Baillina' (PP16,662), is a round shaped lilac that is part of our Fairytale® Series of dwarf lilacs. Multitudes of medium pink buds open to very light pink blossoms that are the most fragrant of any in the series. Thumbelina is suitable as an informal hedge or foundation plant. It is easily grown in average, medium, well-drained soil in full sun. This lilac tolerates light shade, but best bloom quality and disease resistance occur in full sun. It prefers rich, moist, neutral soils. It should be pruned as needed immediately after flowering. This rounded shaped lilac forms a wonderful small tree, with rosy-lilac buds that are wonderfully fragrant. It grows 5-6 feet in height and width. ... additional info
Barberry-Red Leaf Japanese The Barberry bush or RedLeaf Japanese bush, Berberis thunbergii, is a deciduous shrub reaching up to 24" tall and about 30" wide. The branches are slender, spiny, and small, and the leaves are roundly oval in a deep red to purple color. The small, yellow flowers borne beneath leaves, from April to May, are not showy. Ironically, this is never really considered a feature of this plant. This plant is tolerant of many types of soil, but will not do well in wet to very moist soils. As name Barberry implies, this makes an excellent hedge or filler shrub. |
