Here are a few of our favorites right now ... but please note that availability and selection will vary by location.

	Hydrangea ‘Mini Penny’ Compact reblooming mophead with a special legacy. The plant was named after Penny McHenry, founder of the American Hydrangea Society, and an Atlanta native. It was developed by close friend, distinguished author and woody plant expert Dr. Michael A. Dirr of the University of Georgia. ‘Mini Penny’ blooms on both old and new wood for repeat-blooming color all season long.  Prompt removal of the faded blooms will encourage new growth and new blooms. Blooms range from blue to pink based on the acidity of the soil. For best results, plant in filtered to partial shade.
	Gardenia ‘White Gem’  This small gardenia variety gives you the sweet fragrance of gardenias on a versatile, dwarf size shrub. White Gem is great in containers, raised beds and in the foreground of borders.  Single flowers are star-like with six petals atop foliage spring and fall. Plant this evergreen in full to partial sun. It is relatively slow-growing to only 1 to 2 feet tall with an equal spread.
	Aucuba ‘Picturata’ Picturata is a colorful solution for shady sites. It is a slow-growing evergreen shrub that will reach four to six feet tall with an equal spread at maturity. Its large leaves have blotched, bright yellow centers with dark green borders flecked with yellow. Makes an excellent foundation plant. Also suitable for planting in large containers.
	Buddleia ‘Harlequin’ Harlequin Butterfly Bush has gray-green leaves with white margins and rich, violet-purple flower clusters that are very fragrant. The plants can be kept in bloom by cutting or deadheading the spent flowers. This plant is a great addition to any butterfly garden and is a nectar source for the Red Admiral butterfly. Plant in full sun to partial shade. Harlequin will grow to 6 to 8 feet tall at maturity. It is attractive to bees, butterflies and birds, drought tolerant and deer resistant.
	Cephalotaxus Harringtonia Drupacea This Japanese Plum Yew variety is an evergreen conifer that is typically used in groups and mass plantings. It makes a good understory plant in woodland settings. This plant is considered the Yew for southern gardens. It tolerates summer heat well and is very slow growing. Plum Yew is drought tolerant but grows best if watered occasionally during dry spells. It prefers semi to moderate shade and should be planted in a good, rich soil that drains well. It will succeed but will not thrive when planted in full sun.
