    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Not only one of the best mahonias to come along in years – these brought to us from Japan -- but one of the best new garden textures. Leaves, 8” to 1 ft long with exceedingly long narrow leaflets of olivey green sometimes cast in silver, give a tropical effect, not found elsewhere in the temperate world…to my knowledge. The plants grow to about 4 ft producing sprays of branches, late autumn bunches of yellow flowers, and, if we are at all lucky, bluish black fruit through winter. Excellent in containers or the light woodland garden. Frost hardy in USDA zone 7. To quote Hayes Jackson, “don’t be dumb, get you some.”
