The Red Gold nectarine delivers a high quality fruit with a great shelf life. The fruit is large sized, spherical shape, and it has a deep yellow peel that covers for 50-70% by dark red. The flesh is yellow, highly consistent, and with a good taste. The skin is a glossy red and gold color. It is a very popular variety with medium-high vigour and productivity.

Dogwood - Ivory Halo

Jul 30th, 2008 by admin | Comments Off

The Dogwood ‘Ivory Halo’, Cornus alba ‘Bailhalo’,also known as tatarian dogwood, is a cultivar that is noted for its compact size, variegated (white-edged) leaves and bright red twigs in winter. It is a rapid-growing, multi-stemmed, suckering, deciduous shrub that grows to a maximum size of 4-6′ tall on erect, usually unbranched stems. The outstanding ornamental features of this cultivar are: (1) bright red winter stems which are particularly showy against a snowy backdrop and (2) medium/dark green leaves (to 4. 5″ long) which are edged with white. Tiny, yellowish-white flowers appear in flat-topped clusters (to 2. 5″ diameter) in late spring, with sparse, intermittent, additional flowering sometimes continuing into summer. Flowers give way to clusters of blue-white drupes in summer. Fruit is quite attractive to birds and is generally considered to have as much if not more ornamental interest than the flowers. Fall color is variable, but foliage may turn attractive shades of purple-red.
