The following are the scientific plant names of landscape specimens I cover commencing with the letters "O" or "P." Follow any of the links below to obtain information about that particular species or cultivar.
All four seasons of the year in landscaping are represented below. Some of the spring standouts are Phlox subulata, Pulsatilla vulgaris, Paeonia and Papaver. The other members of the genus, Phlox shine most brightly in summer. Meanwhile, autumn belongs to Parthenocissus quinquefolia and Physalis alkekengi. Finally, there are plenty of evergreens to keep us happy in winter between the Picea and Pinus listings.
