A shrub of the marsh or floodplain, this plant grows well in good garden soil but will tolerate clay soil. Leaves are an eye-catching glossy green but lack great fall color. White flowers bloom in July and August are rich in nectar and attract butterflies and other insects. Full sun only. Deer resistant.
A very large shrub that is as broad as it is tall. Found on wet sites and riverbanks but has proved adaptable to the urban garden. Flowers are white, one to three inches in diameter, flat-topped corymbs. Birds devour the shining, blue fruit. Full to part sun. Fall color is reddish purple.
A hardy deciduous holly. The red berries are spectacular in fall and winter and provide food for birds and other wildlife. Plants are not separated into males and females, so plant 3-5 shrubs to insure a good mix for fruit production. Easily grown in acidic, medium to wet soils in full sun to part shade. Deer resistant.
Nut is edible and attractive to wildlife. Likes at least half day of sun and good garden soil. A harbinger of spring when male catkins elongate 2-3 inches and release puffs of pollen. Excellent red, yellow, and orange fall color. Better chance of producing nuts if you have 3-5 plants. Best grown in moist, well-drained soil.
A small rose that forms a very loose thicket. In the prairie these thickets allow numerous prairie plants to grow. Also adapted to sand country. Pasture Rose blooms heavily in June and then sporadically through September. Fall color is red with crimson hips. Prefers full sun, in medium to wet, well-drained soil. Attracts birds & butterflies.
