Selected at the University of Maine for its amazing red fall foliage color, this native plant goes beyond fruiting…it’s an outstanding landscape plant that just happens to produce an amazing amount of small, deep blue, tasty fruit in July. Beyond being a gastronomic delight for humans and for landscape critters of many sizes and species, ‘Burgundy’ is a great plant for massing in sunny, well drained, sandy locations that allow it become an unbroken swath of beauty with deep green foliage in the summer followed by a red foliage display in fall that will make you think the ground is ablaze! Even in winter its burning red stems provide a blazing contrast to the snow!

It would be hard to find a plant that has more admirers or uses than this American Beauties selection. Its dense, low, spreading, compact form makes it an idea plant for a multitude of landscape uses as a front of the landscape planting or as a mass planting in any sunny to partial shaded area. Even better than its versatility, this plant is a magnet to native bees and butterflies seeking out the nectar from its small white flowers in May and to birds and small mammals in the summer for that multitude of small, sweet, dark blue fruit. You will prize this plant as much as these landscape creatures especially when you consider how it tolerates dry, acid, poor soils and how it puts on a fiery orange-red to purply-red fall foliage color that looks like someone set the ground on fire!

This native blueberry produces sweet, dark blue berries from mid-to-late summer and has an open, airy form befitting a shrub border or native garden environment. Dainty white flowers cover the bush in May, and its dark green leaves put on a magnificent autumn show as they transform to a reddish-bronze color, making this a great selection for both taste and aesthetic purposes.

Hang this plant next to your colorful annuals for a beautiful and delicious combination. Clusters of sweet blueberries will cover the plants throughout the season, and the leaves will turn deep red and green in the winter months.

Pink Icing® has breathtaking spring and fall foliage. Spring brings lovely new growth foliage color that has varying shades of pink mixed with blue and deeper greens. In the winter, Pink Icing foliage takes on a stunning iridescent turquoise blue foliage hue which is impressive when planted en masse.  Pink Icing® is a wonderful complement to Peach Sorbet®, another Bushel and Berry™  blueberry variety. Plant Pink Icing® as a backdrop with Peach Sorbet in the front for varying heights of foliage colors. Bushel and Berry™ network growers trialed this variety for 2-3 years and begged us to release it due to its beautiful foliage colors. So here is PInk Icing! Plant in decorative patio pots or plant in the landscape or garden for year round color and beauty. 

Blueberry Glaze® is unlike any other blueberry variety. With its small stature and incredibly glossy, dark green leaves, Bushel and Berry™ is reminiscent of a boxwood and can easily be sheared as such. The white with pink spring flowers beautifully contrast the deep foliage color. Small, little dark (almost black) berries present in little bundles mid-summer. The small berries have intense flavor much like the flavor of wild blueberries. With their deep flesh color, these berries pack a healthful punch with their antioxidant-rich qualities.

Fully resistant to Dutch Elm disease, this selection was cloned from a surviving Elm in Washington, DC. Its shape, unique, rounded, spreading canopy and deep green foliage make this an outstanding specimen tree.

This deciduous tree is donned with smooth, oval leaves and a plethora of samaras perfect for birds to feast on. The vase-like shape of this tree will provide you with umbrella-like shade whose color will turn a rusty hue in the fall.
