ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
Korean Boxwood is a vibrant evergreen shrub. A top choice for colder climates, this shrub will look stunning lining a driveway or as a foundation plant.
Easy to root in and maintain, Korean Boxwood's thick foliage is deer resistant and turns an attractive yellow-brown to purplish in winter. Consider applying mulch around the base to keep the roots moist and cool.
Note: This species is currently unavailable. Grow your own using Korean Boxwood seeds at SeedTime.ca.
Aldara Hazelnut is a northern hybrid selection noted for its superior nut quality, disease resistance, and cold hardiness.
It is great for attracting wildlife with the added bonus of edible nuts that can be eaten fresh or used in baking. Pair with another Aldara or Andrew Hazelnut for cross pollination to occur.
Aldara and Andrew Hazelnut are currently the hardiest and most reliable nut varieties available for the Canadian prairies.
Note: You want more than one hazelnut to improve yields.
