Woody Plants
We find that it is very difficult to find new mutations of woody plants such as variegated & weeping forms. We have started to propagate & sell unusual varieties mostly from Japan. The plants we sell are not large, usually one to three years old. They may need to be grown on in larger containers for a year or so before they can be planted in the garden.
