Juniper - Arcadia

Arcadia Juniper, Juniperus sabina 'Arcadia', is a popular evergreen that exhibits rich green, lacy-textured foliage and a semi-spreading growth habit. It is a grass-green selection with a mature height of one to one and a half feet, and it has good resistance to juniper blight. It displays a spreading habit with a dense, dwarf, somewhat layered effect. Arcadia Juniper is excellent for foundation and mass border plantings. Prefers a well-drained soil and a sunny location. Junipers are important evergreens for landscape use due to their tolerance of unfavorable soil conditions, their hardiness and great variation in size, habit, color and growth rate. Junipers are used as ground covers, in foundation plantings, or as hedges, screens or windbreaks. These plants may also be utilized for background plantings in shrub beds or flower gardens, as specimen plants, in rock gardens or for topiary or espalier purposes. ... additional information

 

Red Flowering Quince The single or double rose like flowers emerge in clusters of 2–4, often before leaves develop. The oblong, serrated foliage opens bronze red and fades to a glossy dark green. It is very nice for a shrub border or espaliered to wall. Cut branches with swollen flower buds may be forced indoors, making a welcomed winter flower arrangement. To prune, remove only crossing, diseased or broken branches.
