A fine textured evergreen shrub that tolerates pruning and shearing well, the Boxwood 'Green Velvet' is a slow growing broadleaf evergreen that requires little care.  One of the favorites among northern gardeners, this boxwood is a great choice for northern locations because it will hold its green color well in the winter sun and cold conditions.  This low maintenance boxwood only requires well-drained soil and prefers shading; plant in a sheltered location to protect it from cold winters and strong winds. 

Often used as a border or hedge, this plant reaches a height of 2-3' and a spread of 3' and does add color and texture to the landscape.  It will grow naturally to a semi-spherical shape but lends itself well to shaping.  With a vigorous growth habit, and low dense foliage, 'Green Velvet' allows you to create a variety of looks for your garden design.  Plant 'Green Velvet' in full shade to part sun, in a well-drained area.  Avoid cultivating around this perennial plant because it prefers to have its shallow roots left undisturbed!  Remove dead and damaged branches annually to improve the air circulation.

The
Ninebark ‘Summer Wine’ is a new Ninebark that is very neat with compact
branching and deeply cut, dark crimson leaves.  The lovely pinkish white flowers
appear in mid summer.   ‘Summer Wine’ is showy and extremely hardy and is prized
as a landscape shrub, and as a cut flower.
One
of the finest Ninebarks to grow, it is smaller and
more highly branched than other Ninebarks.  ‘Summer Wine’ is fast growing and is
a trouble-free addition to either the landscape or flower garden!  This
plant requires little pruning and looks great in a large container on the
patio.  Growing 5-6 feet tall, plant this shrub next to yellow and bright green
plants, or against a light background to get the best effect.  Being hardy for
zones 3-9, this perennial shrub blazes right past severe drought and long
periods of high heat.  This ‘Summer Wine’ is a perennial that adds color and
vibrancy to any garden, especially in the spring when it blooms with
white-pinkish button-like blooms.
As
a young plant, it is best to prune or pinch your plant in order to build a full
bodied, well branched plant.  Fertilize in early spring by applying a slow
release fertilizer specialized for trees and shrubs.
 
Physocarpus opulifolious 'Summer Wine'
