Pheasant Berry - Golden Lanterns
The Pheasant Berry, 'Leycesteria 'Golden Lanterns', a Proven Winners selection, is a great additin to the perennial border. Leycesteria is an easy to grow plant that provides lots of color. Golden Lanterns' sunny yellow foliage has reddish new growth and the dark purple brachts make it even more colorful. Pheasant Berry gets its common name from the fruit it bears. Pheasants and wildlife love the berries it produces. In the north this shrub will die back each winter. Use a lot of mulch in colder climates. ... additional info
Willow - Japanese The Japanese Willow, 'Salix Integra Flamingo', produces beautiful pink foliage all season long. The outer leaves turn a bright pink while the inner leaves are green and white. The Japanese Willow has 4 season interest. In the spring, before it leafs out, it produces hundreds of slender catkins that contrast brilliantly against the deep red stems. Then you see the pink summer foliage and in the fall and winter the striking red stems. You may prune the plant back for another flush of pink foliage later in the season. Regular pruning will promote a denser and bushier plant. Great as a container plant. |
