Yellow Foliage/Stems or Marked with Yellow

Bright golden yellow feathery foliage on this tall stately tree makes for a brilliant contrast with surrounding evergreens. In fall, the Amber Glow™ Dawn Redwood takes on shades of orange and amber. This species is one of the oldest living conifers in the world known to have existed for at least 50 million years and is considered a living fossil. This is a naturally narrowly pyramidal deciduous tree that is similar to our native Bald Cypress. It develops a large trunk with textured bark and deep flutes (or ridges) and can grow at a relatively fast rate 70-100'. Item# 11427

In late winter and early spring very double dainty white flowers often with a greenish eye are produced in profusion along the bare arching stems of this heirloom favorite. Bridal Wreath Spirea, or as we learned it Popcorn Spirea, develops into a medium to large deciduous shrub with a naturally arching and fountaining habit often accentuated by the weight of the numerous flowers. The somewhat fine-textured simple foliage is glossy and appears smooth edged at a glance although it is very finely toothed, unlike the bluish-green, matte finished, rhomboid shaped dentate foliage of the more commonly grown Reeve's Spirea (which is also commonly and confusingly called Bridal Wreath or Bridal Wreath Spirea) and develops good fall color in shades of red, orange, and into purple tones.

The sunny yellow new growth and bright yellow foliage of this evergreen native shrub is sure to brighten any lightly shaded garden.

Use Florida Sunshine Anise with other shrubs and perennials where its bright foliage can contrast nicely setting off everything around it. Item# 10951.

Dark purplish-red new growth matures to glossy green foliage that is broadly edged with creamy yellow and matures to cream and green on this interesting evergreen to semi-evergreen, medium sized, twining vine. Kadsura Vines or Magnolia Vines are vigorous enough though they are not aggressive nor do they seem to ever get out of hand. They are also shade loving and easy to grow and Fukurin is one of the showiest among them with foliage that readily brightens up a shady spot. Highly recommended by many well known horticulturists and appears to have few pests or diseases. Small enough to be grown in a medium or large container, on a 4-6' obelisk, trellis, chain link fence, or small arbor but may reach 15' if given a support it can twine around to attain such heights. Item # 10885.
