and pest free.
2014 Tree Selection
Desert-willow cultivars
Desert-willow is not a willow at all, and prefers dry, well-drained soils, compared
to true willows, which grow along streams and ponds; in fact, it will not tolerate
heavy, wet soils.

Blue Muffin® Arrowwood Viburnum
Blue Muffin viburnum is a small, compact version of the native arrowwood viburnum
growing about 3’ to 5’ high and just as wide.
2014 Perennial Selection
Switchgrass
Switchgrass is native throughout North America and is a dominant species of the tallgrass
prairies. Switchgrass is a warm-season perennial, growing largely as a bunchgrass
3 to 6 feet tall, but may spread by rhizomes or self-seeding.
2014 Annual Selection
Big Twister Corkscrew Rush
Corkscrew rush with its uniquely twisted stems, though relatively small (18-24” high
and wide), still commands attention in any garden space. The stems curl and spiral
creating a tangled mass.
