Blue Spruce - this is an all time classic piece, it brings color, texture and style to any landscape. The Blue Spruce is an evergreen that will retain its leaves and color throughout the winter season. You can pair just about anything with this tree, especially Knockout roses and Black Eyed Susan for an amzing contrast.

'Pee Gee' Hydrangea Tree - this magnificent tree form of hydrangea has showy blooms in summer that start off an ivory white that turn to a pinkish color in fall, then turning to a warm wheat color by winter. The branches arc gracefully from the weight of the flower heads. Definitely a specimen you want in your landscape.

Variegated Maiden Grass - the variegated maiden grass is once again one of my favorites, with delicate clumps of fine textured foliage in a rounded form and a silver white stripe in the middle of the leaf blade is what gives this plant its characteristics. It also produces reddish plumes in late fall which makes for great winter interest.

Sedum - this is a great late summer and fall plant, offering foliage interest earlier in the season then a colorful display of flowers in the fall. They produce green broccoli like buds in mid summer, which open into lovely pink flower heads, then deepening to a rich bronze color. Even the dead flower heads add winter interest. Sedum offers several types of perennials all great for border plantng.
