Malus × purpurea 'Lemoinei'

[Lemoine Flowering Crabapple]

The Flowering Crabapple is a popular small ornamental tree with an extremely showy flower display in the spring. Malus x purpurea 'Lemoine' is a dense tree and annual bloomer that produces large, red to pink single to semi-double flowers and purple-red fruits. It is highly susceptible to apple scab and fireblight. Well-drained heavy loam soils and full sun promote best growth. May look quite ragged at the end of the summer.

Salix purpurea 'Canyon Blue'

[Canyon Blue Purpleosier Willow]

Canyon Blue Purpleosier Willow is very similar to the compact cultivar Nana in its habit and shape. What stands out is its deeper bluish leave color. This is a great choice for wet areas, soil stability, and in rain gardens. Unlike most willows (Salix ssp.), the Purpleosier tends to stay a compacted shrub and will sucker less than others in this genus.
