Botanical name:Acer palmatum 'Atropurpureum'

This Japanese Maple grows as a small, deciduous tree complete with palmate leaves that turn red and endure for the entire season.

Common name:Southern Magnolia, Bull Bay
Botanical name:Magnolia grandiflora

Its large, simple, leathery appearance makes the pyramidal Magnolia grandiflora perfect for either a street or lawn tree. Its leaves are 4"-8" long, and its powerfully fragrant blooms are carried throughout the summer. Reddish brown cone shaped fruit appear in the fall. If these plants are grafted, they are more predictable (may take 15 years to bloom). Ungrafted trees will take only 2-3 years. Restricted root areas or heavy soils will slow the growth process.

Common name:Veitch Jasmine
Botanical name:Gardenia augusta 'Veitchii'

The growth of this plant is lower and more compact than the 'Mystery' variety. It grows 3'-4' high and as wide. Its foliage is smaller, but has the same dark, glossy green color as the 'Mystery' variety. Its white double flowers are 1.5" wide, and are highly fragrant. It needs sun to part shade for growth, and it blooms more profusely than the 'Mystery'.

Common name:Bearded Iris
Botanical name:Iris Bearded Hybrids

Many are fragrant and rebloom several times a year. Plant rhizomes in Sept or Oct. They need water once a week during the hot spells. Top dress with compost and gypsum in January and August.
