| Allegheny Spurge, Pachysandra |
Zones: 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
|
|
|
|
|
Throughout the southeast in rich woods, Allegheny Spurge grows unobtrusively throughout the leaf letter. Unlike its well-known cousin, Japanese Pachysandra, which spreads quickly even in fairly dry shade, our native Pachysandra prefers evenly moist, good soil and spreads rather slowly. Plants form clumps about 10 inches tall and are weakly rhizomatous (spreading). The leaves are deeply lobed and dull, greenish gray often mottled with silver. Plants tend to be evergreen in the south but deciduous in the north. In mid-spring, 2 to 6 inch long spikes of white-tinged-with-purple, very fragrant flowers appear at the bases of the leaf stems. While Allegheny Spurge will never be the ground cover that Japanese Pachysandra is, its handsome beauty is right at home in the natural garden especially when planted in small groups. Cat# 1308

| Ginseng, Sang |
Zones: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

|
|
Ginseng is an ancient Chinese herbal remedy for stress and exhaustion, and it helps increase physical and mental performance. With a dwindling availability of the Chinese variety, there is a now booming trade in wild collected American Ginseng which grows in moist, rich, neutral to alkaline woods usually north facing of eastern North America. It is also grown commercially here but cultivated roots are worth much less per ounce than the wild ones. That said, Ginseng makes an interesting addition to the wild garden. Growing to around 1 foot tall, a whorl of 3 or 4 long-stemmed leaves are palmately divided into more-or-less hickory shaped leaflets. In the leaflet juncture, sits an umbel of greenish puffy flowers in spring which is followed by a cluster of dark red coffee bean-like berries in late summer that eventually birds will eat. Ginseng is a neat plant for a special place. Not the easiest thing to grow, it wants shade, and good, moist, cool, alkaline soil. A top dressing of dolomitic lime each fall wouldn't be a bad idea. And if you grow lots of it, you might want to put a fence around it or keep guard! Cat# 1350

| Heavy Metal Switch Grass |
Zones: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
|
|
|
|
|
'Heavy Metal' is a gorgeous metallic, blue leaved selection of Switch Grass. It is a stiffly upright clump former that reaches 3 to 5 feet in flower. Flowering starts in mid-summer with a haze of fine pinkish flowers that persist into winter turning straw yellow with age. Although Switch Grass tolerates a wide range of soil types, its preference is for average to moist soil and full sun. Grow it in masses or at least in groups of 3. 'Heavy Metal' looks great with just about every mid and late summer bloomer but our planting of it with 'Sunrise' Coneflower and Campsis 'Morning Calm' is outstanding. Since it's a warm season grass, do not cut it back until new growth is visible in spring. Cat# 1448

Given full sun and average soil, it is a slow grower reaching up to 4 feet. Pink Boltonia, Smooth Aster, and Seashore Mallow would be great with it. Cat# 1273

Words cannot describe the beauty of the Passion Flower, a perennial vine climbing with tendrils. Flowers are heavily sweet-scented, 2- to 3-inches wide, combining white, green, blue, and purple. They have exotic floral appendages, protrusions, and frills. Given a dry, sunny location, and a fence or trellis to climb on, these vines will flourish and flower from July to October. In addition to the intricately structured flowers, Passion Flower also produces tasty lime-shaped fruits used in making ice cream and jelly. Although this plant is aggressive and tougher than nails once established, it is sometimes difficult to establish. We strongly recommend late spring planting. Cat# 1158

Yellow Passionflower is a climbing or trailing vine to 15 feet that is widespread in thickets throughout the eastern US. It has small, intricately detailed, pale yellow-green flowers in summer, which are followed by small black berries. This little vine isn't going to win any "who's the showiest" contests but if you want a little "hey, that's neat" factor in your side woods or thicket, then try it. Cat# 1385

Smooth Beardtongue is widely occurring east of the Mississippi River from Michigan to Maine and south to Georgia and Alabama in roadside meadows, woodland margins, moist to dry woods, and even alkaline rocky slopes. It's habitat is quite varied. Very showy late spring-early summer flowers are pale purplish-pink, snapdragon-like and on 2 to 4 foot tall spikes. This is a good plant for naturalizing in moist to dryish places in part shade in neutral to basic soil as it has a tap root that will help it deal with drought. Cat# 1450

| Smooth White Beard-Tongue |
Zones: 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
|
|
|
|
|
The Beard-tongues that are native to the eastern United States, are primarily rock outcrop species. They seem to thrive on thin soil, good drainage, and open shade or full sun. Penstemon digitalis is the only one that will tolerate dampness year round. While technically classified as perennials, we've found that excessive soil richness may result in a short life for a Penstemon. They receive their common name of Beard-tongue because of the tuft of yellow hairs just outside of the throats of the flowers which resemble delicate Snapdragons. Smooth Beard-tongue grows 2- to 4-feet tall with loose clusters of white-with-purple-lined flowers in early summer. It does well in full sun or light shade where there may be a drainage problem. Although it likes having soggy feet, it doesn't resent occasional droughts. Plants form evergreen clumps. Cat# 1160

Penstemon 'Husker Red' is the Perennial Plant Association's 1996 Perennial of the Year. It was selected and introduced by Dale Lindgren of the University of Nebraska for its wonderful coloring. Foliage all year long is green and bronze-purple. The flowers are all white on dark almost black stems, and the average height is around 30 inches. This is one of our staples in perennial borders.

Hairy Beard-tongue is a denizen of dry, rocky areas throughout much of the eastern United States. Lavender to white flowers are borne on 1 to 3 foot tall stems in early to mid-summer. It is the shortest of our four Penstemons. It prefers lean soil and full sun to part shade. Cat# 1162

The flowering display of Penstemon smallii is perhaps the showiest of our four Penstemons. Lavender flowers are produced in profusion and for a good month or more in late spring and early summer. Flowering stalks may grow from 11/2- to 3- feet tall. And this one will grow reasonably well under maple trees! Cat# 1163

Russian Sage, the Perennial Plant Association's 1995 Perennial of the Year, is a semi-woody perennial that provides color, fragrance, and texture all summer long.

The flowers themselves are small tubular and light blue but the effect is of a powdery blue airy haze. Full sun and good drainage are keys to survival. Wet feet during the winter are not appreciated. Plants also benefit from a late spring pruning down to several pairs of buds. Combine with Boltonia, Seashore Mallow, and grasses for a late summer showdown. Cat# 1164

Flowering stalks topped by pinkish-purple loose elongated balls of 1 inch flowers, may reach 5 feet or more but in a garden in full sun are likely to be less than 4 feet. This is the species that has given rise to so many great color selections for the garden. It is a butterfly magnet and may spread by seed in your garden. It would look great naturalized in a dampish meadow. Cat# 1452
