Looking Good:
Aesculus parviflora (Bottlebrush Buckeye) is blooming now! Sought-after for it's foot long creamy flower spikes, deer resistance and ability to bloom as well in sun or shade. Nice for the large shrub border or massed. Growing 8-12' H x 8-15' W, it is even nice standing alone. Great as a transition plant from lawn to woods. Fall color is yellow.
 | Hydrangea p. 'Limelight'
|
Hydrangea paniculata (Panicle Hydrangea) All blooming beautifully! Large creamy panicles will age to pink. Full sun to part shade they are reliable bloomers even when pruned back late winter. Tolerant of any soil conditions, but not wet. Very hardy plants that are the most urban tolerant of all hydrangeas.
Check out 'Limelight', 'Quickfire', 'Tardiva', 'Snow Mountain', 'Grandiflora' and others. Shrub form and tree form available.
 | Vaccinium x 'Top Hat'
|
Vaccinium angustifolium, V. corymbosum
and V. x 'Top Hat' Assorted container sizes. Versatile native plants grown for their fall color as much as their berries. Use the Lowbush as an interesting groundcover or as front of the border edging. The hybrid 'Top Hat', which is self-pollinating, makes a wonderful container plant slowly reaching about 2'. The Highbush is very nice in the shrub border, for attracting wildlife or to naturalize along ponds and streams. Older plants develop characters all their own with interesting furrowed, twisted trunks. Of course, all are good for delicious fruit. Plant them in rich acidic soil that is moist and well drained. They will tolerate shade but sunnier locations result in more fruit and better fall color. Fertilize with Holly-tone or PHC 3-4-4 for acid loving plants.

Hardgoods
Mosquitoes are ravenous this year so why not try Mosquito Dunks! How do they work? It is a solid form of BT (Bacillus thuringiensis v. israelensis) which is released over the surface of the water. It contans no poisons so it is harmless to other animals and pets. They target only Mosquito larvae. Use 1 dunk once a month for every 100 sq feet of standing water - they can even be broken up for smaller areas. Safe and effective! So plan all the swat-free picnics you want!
