Common Witch-hazel

Hamamelis virginiana

"The Common Witch-Hazel, `Hamamelis virginiana,' flowers in late October and the blooms will persist until early December. This plant has extraordinary flowering habits. Often, its slender yellow petals are the only signs of color in the dormant winter woods. After pollination, its fruits will become dormant for the winter, and develop over the following growing season. They will finally mature in the fall, about eleven months after pollination. Individual plants will probably not live for more than one hundred years, but they commonly reproduce from root sprouts. These clones have the possibility to live a very long time."

Spectrum Ann Begonia

Spectrum Ann Begonia

Begonia Spectrum Ann plants, `Begonia x hybrida,' are wonderfully flowering plants that grow well in the garden as well as patio containers.  This variety is a cross between the winter flowering and tuberous summer flowering varieties of Begonia.  Spectrum Ann Begonias are distinguished by their large, flowers that are double and a light salmon pink in color.  More that a half day of sunlight will cause the plants to dry out, as too much shade will cause the plants to become soft and less showy in bloom. 

 




Royal Fern

Royal Fern

The Royal Fern, `Osmunda regalis,' is a tall, deciduous fern that grows naturally on moist bluffs and ledges along streams, and is sometimes found growing in the water.  The broad fronds feature large, separated leaflets that give this fern an almost pea-family appearance.  Its spores are located in brown, tassel-like, fertile clusters on the tips of the fronds.  This gives the plant the additional common name of flowering fern.  This plant will also grow nicely in shaded borders, woodland gardens and native or wild plant gardens. 

 


 

Mars Grape

Mars Grape

The Mars Grape (Blue-Purple), `Vitas labrusca Mars,' produces seedless, medium sized grapes that are perfect to serve fresh on the table, as well as in making jams and jellies.  It is very similar in character to the Concord grape.  This is the most disease resistant variety of grape that we carry, and the fruits will ripen in mid to late August.  Grape vines can also be grown as ornamentals or screens in the landscape.
