You haven’t seen a variegated grass like this U.S. National Arboretum introduction ever and you’ll want one, at the very least, for your landscape as soon as you see it! Wide, drooping foliage blades are attached to strong, upright growing stems and are green on the edges with a wide, white center giving the plant an almost ghostly appearance. Add in big brown to red colored plumes in the late summer and fall for contrast and you have a grass that demands attention and devotion.

A short, banded and infertile Miscanthus makes Bandwidth a perfect choice for any sunny garden. Gold bands cut across its green upright leaf blades creating a striking accent. Tough, non-invasive and rust-resistent, Bandwidth is a ornamental grass worth tuning into.

It’s huge! Silver plumes bloom in September, and if you don’t cut the plant until spring, you’ll be rewarded with unbeatable winter interest. Use as an eye-catching specimen, or a very successful screening hedge.

Russian Cypress is one of the hardiest plants you could ever grow tolerating temperatures down to -50 without batting an eye. Unfortunately, even with its outstanding cold hardiness, many strains of this incredibly tough groundcover tend to succumb to disease problems making them fade away in the landscape piece by piece in an ugly manner. Celtic Pride™ is the most disease resistant selections you will find allowing you far more success in the landscape. Celtic Pride™ is all about ease and success with its no prune form, its ability to perform in sun, partial sun or shade and its deep green summer color that can fill the roughest toughest, driest, most gnarly areas of the landscape with a carpet of green. In the winter its color transforms to a striking bronze shade making this easy care, drought tolerant, deer resistant beauty with the soft, feathery foliage texture one of the easiest plants you’ll ever grow.
