Plant Picks for January
Monthly, we create articles on selected plants that we think you will enjoy in your garden. The featured plants can come in at multiple times through the season, so phone for availability.
Use the Oregon State University's Landscape Plants' web site for a comprehensive list of plant varieties.
Cyrtomium - Holly Fern - In the Pacific Northwest they are reliably evergreen and are a wonderful, easy to grow addition to any woodland garden or shade container.
Elaeagnus - Silverberry & Goumi Berry - At a glance these two species are easy to confuse. Both are really tough, accepting the hottest and driest and windiest conditions Portland can offer.
Mahonia - Oregon Grape: Oregon grape, one of the most common of our native shrubs and the official State Flower of Oregon.
