Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This delightful little eye-catching spiraea comes in at just 2'. Notable for its bright foliage sherbet-orange and pink leaves in spring mellow to soft- yellow and chartreuse in summer. The immature foliage is always tinged with red keeping this plant colorful. Deep, rose-pink flowers bloom in late spring to early summer; this is a wonderful specimen, accent or low hedge. Perfect for anyplace you need a sunny spot of color! S-PSh/M
Low spreading mounds of yellow foliage sprinkled with red new growth and aflame with clusters of dark pink flowers, this puts on an impressive display in the garden. Flaming mounds, burning bushes, talking burning bushes, (some think they talk to Bush which is a scary thought but rest assured its just Karl Rove which is also scary to some.) Actually they are just telling you to sell all your worldly goods and use the money to buy plants from Arrowhead. On the other hand, it is possible to modulate a charged plasma and generate sound, and someone even attempted a high frequency tweeter using this technology, perhaps Clark's law applies.
