COMING TO A GARDEN CENTER NEAR YOU

Viburnum opulus 'aureum'

I'm getting ready for the new garden season and will work a few days a week at the Tree and Shrub department of Gethsemane Garden Center in early April. We are one of the largest in the city. My superior John has been busy all Fall and Winter selecting outstanding plants for our department and he sent me a copy of his prize picks.

I'm a big fan of viburnums ( pictured above ) and trees and shrubs that have chartruese or gold leaves, so I've picked them first to show you :

Tsuga canadensis 'golden Splendor '

Pinus thunbergii 'Ogon '

Acer shirasawanum 'Ogura yama '

Kolkwitzia ' Dream catcher '

Cercis canadensis ' Hearts of Gold '

Taxodium distichum 'Peve Yellow '

Stay tuned. More beauties to come.
