It has dark green, glossy foliage and approximately 80% of the white flowers are double with two rows of petals. Snowbird forms an upright compact shape at maturity. Plant in full sun or semi shade.

Very attractive plant for butterflies and likes full sun or partial shade and somewhat regular watering. You can plant it with the assurance that it will live. It requires little, if no care once established. It is compact and free flowering. It can be used as a foundation plant, in the perennial border, in mass planting, as a low hedge and even as a specimen. ... get more information
Willow - Japanese The Japanese Willow, 'Salix Integra Flamingo', produces beautiful pink foliage all season long. The outer leaves turn a bright pink while the inner leaves are green and white. The Japanese Willow has 4 season interest. In the spring, before it leafs out, it produces hundreds of slender catkins that contrast brilliantly against the deep red stems. Then you see the pink summer foliage and in the fall and winter the striking red stems. You may prune the plant back for another flush of pink foliage later in the season. Regular pruning will promote a denser and bushier plant. Great as a container plant. |
