An excellent variegated form of Dwarf Forsythia selected by Dan Moore of McKay Nursery Company. The foliage emerges chartreuse with a lime green variegation in the center of the leaf, which then ages to a creamy white. A nice, brightly colored, dwarf selection suitable for today's landscapes. An excellent, slow growing plant for edging or the front of the border, great used in mass plantings. Requires full sun. In Wisconsin, this plant has not flowered yet. Prune the more vigorous upright new growth to maintain its compact habit. 18-24" tall by 2' spread.
Introduced by McKay Nursery. It has become the standard of comparison for the White Ash. A large tree with a rounded shape. Outstanding deep-green leathery foliage, turning a most beautiful leathery, mahogany color in fall. Seedless.
Is classified as a Zone 4 plant but has been known to perform well in colder climates.
Landscape Value: Autumn purple ash is best suited for medium-sized spaces or large spaces, like a park. Autumn Purple has been selected for its intense red-purple fall color. Discovered at the University of Wisconsin, Madison The Autumn Purple Ash was selected and introduced to the market by our one of our greatest visionaries, Karl Junginger (1905-1991).
This is the standard of comparison all other white ash varieties are based from in our industry.
American Sentry Linden is an outstanding selection (trademarked in 2004) made at McKay Nursery by Howard Kulke. Selected for its narrow, upright pyramidal habit that opens up slightly with age. The branches come off the main stem at 45 degree angles, and are well balanced throughout the crown. The creamy white flowers in late June have a nice spicy fragrance. The bark is smooth and distinctively gray in color when young. The dark green leaves are somewhat whitish on the underside, and turn yellow in fall. It has been reported that Japanese beetle do not prefer to feed on this plant. 50-60' tall by 25-30' wide.
