Growing approximately 5-7 feet tall, with flower plumes extending above the foliage, it forms a large clump of narrow green leaves boldly striped with creamy white. The bright foliage adds excellent contrast and movement to the landscape and can help lighten darker areas of a planting bed. In late summer to early fall, reddish to copper-colored flower plumes emerge above the foliage before gradually maturing to a soft silvery-tan. Its substantial size makes Variegated Maiden Grass an excellent choice for screening, mixed borders, mass plantings, or as a dramatic specimen. The dried foliage and flower plumes can also be left standing through winter to provide additional texture and structure.

Variegated Maiden Grass performs best with plenty of sunlight but can tolerate some light shade. Too much shade may result in weaker, floppier growth and reduced flowering. It is adaptable to a variety of soil conditions but performs best in well-drained soil. Watering:Water consistently during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Once established, Variegated Maiden Grass is moderately drought tolerant and generally requires supplemental watering only during extended periods of hot, dry weather. Fertilizing:Variegated Maiden Grass generally requires little fertilizer. If needed, apply a light application of balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring. Avoid excessive fertilization, which can encourage overly vigorous or floppy growth. Pruning:Leave the foliage and dried flower plumes standing through winter for added texture and structure. Cut the entire plant back to approximately 4-6 inches above the ground in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. State Restrictions State Restrictions: Miscanthus sinensis is restricted, prohibited, or being phased out in certain states, including Massachusetts, Maryland, New York, Connecticut, and Delaware.

Walker Low

Walker’s Low Catmint (Nepeta × faassenii ‘Walker’s Low’) is a vigorous, long-blooming perennial prized for its abundant lavender-blue flowers, aromatic gray-green foliage, and graceful spreading habit. Growing approximately 24-30 inches tall and 30-36 inches wide, it forms a broad mound that provides excellent color, texture, and coverage throughout the growing season. Lavender-blue flower spikes appear in late spring to early summer and continue blooming for an extended period, attracting bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. The aromatic foliage remains attractive throughout the season and is generally avoided by deer and rabbits. Lightly trimming the plant after its initial flush of flowers encourages fresh growth and additional flowering. Walker’s Low is an excellent choice for perennial borders, foundation plantings, mass plantings, walkways, cottage gardens, slopes, rock gardens, or as a flowering groundcover. Its larger size and spreading habit make it especially useful for filling larger areas where smaller catmint varieties may not provide enough coverage.

Watering: Water consistently during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Once established, Walker’s Low is drought tolerant and generally requires supplemental watering only during prolonged periods of hot, dry weather. Avoid consistently wet or poorly drained soil. Fertilizing: Very little fertilizer is required. If needed, apply a light application of balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring. Avoid excessive fertilization, which can encourage excessive or floppy growth. Pruning: Lightly shear the plant after its first major flush of flowers to encourage fresh foliage and additional blooming.

Winterthur Smooth Witherod

Winterthur Smooth Witherod Viburnum (Viburnum nudum ‘Winterthur’) is an outstanding deciduous flowering shrub prized for its glossy dark green foliage, abundant creamy-white spring flowers, colorful ornamental berries, and spectacular burgundy-red fall color. This attractive selection of native Smooth Witherod Viburnum offers exceptional three-season interest while providing valuable food and habitat for birds and beneficial wildlife. In late spring to early summer, Winterthur produces an abundance of flat-topped clusters of delicate creamy-white flowers that attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. When planted near a compatible, genetically different Smooth Witherod Viburnum, the flowers develop into beautiful clusters of ornamental berries that transition from green to pink and eventually deep blue to purplish-black. Multiple berry colors may appear on the same plant, creating a particularly attractive late-summer and fall display. Throughout the growing season, Winterthur maintains lustrous, dark green foliage and a naturally rounded, upright growth habit. As temperatures cool in autumn, the leaves develop rich shades of burgundy, wine-red, and reddish-purple, creating a dramatic seasonal display. Winterthur is particularly well suited for traditional landscapes, estate-style gardens, native plantings, rain gardens, and woodland borders. Its adaptability to moist soils makes it an excellent choice for low-lying landscape areas, pond borders, and locations where many traditional ornamental shrubs struggle. Its colorful berries and attractive fall foliage also make it a valuable addition to wildlife-friendly landscapes.

Winterthur prefers slightly acidic conditions and adapts well to locations with consistently moist or occasionally wet soil. It is particularly suitable for rain gardens, pond borders, woodland edges, and low-lying landscape areas. For the best berry production, plant near a different, compatible Smooth Witherod Viburnum cultivar with overlapping flowering times. Brandywine™ Viburnum is an excellent companion for cross-pollination. Watering: Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Once established, Winterthur performs best with consistent soil moisture and tolerates wetter conditions than many common landscape shrubs. Provide supplemental watering during extended periods of drought, particularly in sunnier locations. Fertilizing: Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring if needed. Incorporating compost or organic matter can help improve soil quality and moisture retention. Avoid excessive fertilization, which can encourage foliage growth at the expense of flowering. Pruning: Winterthur naturally develops an attractive rounded habit and generally requires minimal pruning. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches as needed. If shaping is necessary, prune immediately after flowering. Avoid excessive pruning, as removing spent flowers or developing fruit will reduce the ornamental berry display. Winter Care: Winterthur is a cold-hardy deciduous shrub that requires little winter protection once established. Apply a layer of organic mulch around the root zone to help retain moisture and moderate soil temperatures, keeping mulch away from the main stems. Pollination Requirements: For reliable berry production, plant Winterthur near a genetically different Smooth Witherod Viburnum with overlapping bloom times, such as Brandywine™. Multiple Winterthur plants alone will not provide the cross-pollination needed for the best fruit display.

Growing approximately 30-40 feet tall and 15-20 feet wide at maturity, it develops a full, upright form with rich green foliage that creates an attractive alternative to traditional arborvitae and other privacy evergreens.

Once established, Yoshino prefers average moisture and should be watered during extended periods of hot, dry weather. Avoid both prolonged drought and consistently waterlogged soil. Fertilizing:Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer formulated for trees and evergreens in early spring if needed. Adding organic matter around the root zone can also help improve soil conditions and maintain healthy growth. Pruning:Very little pruning is generally required.
