We selected this variety from Minier Nurseries in France for the size of its blooms and its unusual color. Each pure white, satellite dish-like bloom is painted, tie-dye style, with red and pink from the inside to the edges. Abundant flower set, coupled with the bright green leaves, creates an incredible...

So whether you call it rouge or horticulture red, this large-flowered single is a standout plant in both our trials and our test garden. Developed by Minier Nurseries...
Some plants simply cannot be fully appreciated until you've seen them in person - Paraplu Violet hibiscus is just such a plant. As you can see, its color is beautiful, but seeing it in person is a totally different experience. Its luminous flowers have a super-intense hue that stops people in their...

2022 Proven Winners® Landscape Shrub of the Year: Our goal in creating Incrediball® hydrangea was to develop a non-flopping version of 'Annabelle.' What we ultimately selected, though, was even better: a powerhouse of a plant that not only has strong, sturdy, supportive stems, but also...
Make hydrangea season last even longer with Invincibelle Garnetta® hydrangea. The newest member of our award-winning series of Hydrangea arborescens, Invincibelle Garnetta offers deep garnet-hued buds that open into lush pink blooms. It flowers a bit later than others in the series, which makes it...
Some people adore lacecap flowers for their delicate beauty, while others appreciate the pollen for butterflies and bees.

A better pink 'Annabelle' - type hydrangea! Meet Invincibelle® Spirit II hydrangea - an improved version of Invincibelle® Spirit, the original pink 'Annabelle' hydrangea. It delivers darker foliage, stiffer stems, and larger flowers of a deeper, truer pink. The blooms age to an...
Our most prolific and reliable blooming mophead hydrangea to date. Let's Dance Arriba hydrangea is a hybrid between H. macrophylla x H. serrata hybrid with large, dense mophead flowers. It is so prolific you can finish and sell and flowering plant in the same year you pot up trimmed liners. The rich...
It's the extra-large inflorescences that give Let's Dance Big Band hydrangea its name, but that's not the only feature that sets this selection apart. It's also an excellent rebloomer, with the ability to create new wood flower buds more rapidly than other macs. Flowers may be bright...
Let's Dance Can Do! hydrangea (H. serrata) is an excellent rebloomer, requiring only a short period of vegetative growth in order to create new wood blooms. However, it has another trick up its sleeve: it sets its flower buds along the entire length of the stem, not merely at the tips. This means...
A truly outstanding Hydrangea serrata. Standing out notably in our field and container trials for its outstanding reblooming ability, Tuff Stuff Ah-Ha® mountain hydrangea, the newest member of the series, has massive dinner plate sized blooms. Sterile florets are doubled and waterlily-like, taking...

A dwarf hydrangea, a bit like Bobo® but with a lower, mounded habit and a lot more color. The late-season blooms emerge a bright lime green, transition to white, and quickly take on hues of dragon fruit pink. A perfect little front of the border plant to pair with Supertunia Vista Bubblegum®...
A show-stopping, early bloomer with lots of wow. The large, upright, football-shaped blooms are densely packed with delicate, cruciform flowers of a pleasing coconut-lime color. But there's more. Delicious watermelon hues quickly appear at the base of the bloom and darken as they work their way up...

Another great plant from Maryland plantsman Mike Farrow! Narrower than its sister Sky Box®, Patti O Box® holly has glossier foliage and the same space-saving fastigiate habit. Much darker than typical I. crenata, this petite evergreen is perfectly scaled for smaller gardens and patios, hence...
Native boxwood alternative. With its squat, rounded habit, handsome evergreen foliage, and full, dense branching, Strongbox® inkberry is a welcome alternative to boxwood. Lush, deep green, and disease resistant, this plant offers huge potential for the landscape market and homeowners alike. Stays...
Gem Box® inkberry holly is a dense, ball-shaped plant with small dark green leaves. Foliage develops attractive red tips during the spring flush.

2022 Proven Winners® Rose of the Year: To make it through our rose trials, a plant must first show superior disease resistance. Only then do we begin to evaluate it for good looks - and Suñorita® rose passed with flying colors. Gold, yellow, and orange colors, to be exact. A sturdy, vigorous...
If Dr. Seuss were a plant breeder, this is what he'd create! You've never seen an elderberry like Laced Up® before: it combines a striking fastigiate habit with lacy, near-black foliage. The effect is something like a flock of birds taking flight. Pink flowers in early summer turn to black...
2022 Proven Winners® Flowering Shrub of the Year: Double Play Doozie® spirea is a ground-breaking non-invasive spirea, the first of its kind. Its lack of seed also makes it a perpetual bloomer, putting all of its energy into creating wave after wave of red-pink flowers from early summer through...

Similar to Stonehenge® Taxus, but even skinnier. There's no pruning, shearing, and little to no spacing needed for this dense, dark green columnar yew. We've been watching this plant for over eight years, and it holds its dark color all year long and has never winter burned. It's useful...
