‘Standing Ovation’ little bluestem is a warm season grass with blue-green spikey stems and leaves. Fluffy, seed clusters appear in late summer/fall. In fall, little bluestem turns an apricot color that brightens the winter landscape. ‘Standing Ovation’ with its sturdy habit and excellent fall color makes a good accent or mass planting in a perennial or shrub border. Cut back in early spring to make room for new emerging leaves.
Bald Cypress is a pyramidal, deciduous conifer that grows 50-70 feet tall. It thrives in average to wet soils, preferring sandy soils, but tolerating anything from dry conditions to standing water. Soft, yellow-green needles turn an attractive orange/cinnamon-brown in fall. Purplish green cones mature to brown. Bald Cypress is a striking specimen tree for a variety of large areas since it tolerates a wide range of conditions.
