It can play a feature role in your yard and garden. It grows 3 to 4 feet wide and 16 to 24 inches tall and winter tolerant with its glossy foilage. 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. ... more
Forsythia - Spectabilis Tolerates a wide range of soil and light conditions, but prefers full sun. Withstands city conditions. Profuse, yellow, spring flowers are followed by medium green summer foliage. The profuse, yellow flowers of forsythia are considered by many to be the first sure sign of spring. Flowers will last for two or three weeks unless killed by cold. Often used to control erosion on steep slopes because tips of branches root naturally and plants spread easily. Suggested uses for this plant include border, specimen plant, and screen. Prune in spring after flowering so that buds for the next year can develop in the fall. |
