NEW AND NEW TO MEYERS PLANT INTRODUCTIONS FOR THE 2012 GROWING SEASON 

First Editions® Little Devil™ Ninebark
This "cute little devil" will add deep burgundy foliage color to your garden in a compact, easy to grow and maintain shrub. An exciting improvement to ninebark selections, Little Devil™ is great for every garden but especially useful for smaller urban gardens or where low maintenance is desired, as it needs little to no pruning and is free from pest and disease issues. The dark foliage is beautifully offset by button-like white-pink flowers in June. This cute little devil is a trouble-free addition to any home or commercial landscape. Bred by Dr. David Zlesak and introduced by Bailey Nurseries.

Fire Fall Maple 40-60'tall 30-40' wide. Upright-oval form with good branch angles.  This selection is male and does not produce seed. Fall color is bright orange to scarlet and develops fairly early.  University of Minnesota introduction.

 

Limelight Hydrangea, Tree Form-6-8' tall 6-7' wide.  Perfect for smaller gardens and accents to foundation plantings.  Bright, lime-green flowers add a much needed brightness to the late summer landscape.  In autumn the blooms display shades of pink. burgundy and green.

Pink Lemonade Blueberry
A new pink blueberry provides year-around interest. Pinkish-white, bell shaped blooms in spring followed by pale green fruit that turns deep pink for harvest. Glossy and firm, the fruit has a mild, sweet flavor. In fall the leaves turn orange fading to deep red, dropping to reveal reddish-brown stems. Height 4-5’
 

First Editions® Vanilla Strawberry™ Hydrangea
A delicious new creation from France. The enormous flower panicles are a blend of vanilla and strawberry, held upright on red stems. They emerge creamy white in mid summer, change to pink and finally to strawberry red. New blooms gives the plant a multicolored effect in late summer and early fall. The red coloration persists for at least 3-4 weeks. The habit is upright becoming cascading later in the season. Comparable to Pinky Winky™, however the habit is more upright and the red flower color persists longer. Excellent for fresh cut and dried flower arrangements. Introduced by Bailey Nurseries.
