Due to the winter weather, orders from these states will ship in the spring, April to May: CA, CO, IA, ID, KS, ME, MI, MN, MT, ND, NE, NH, NV, OR, SD, UT, VT, WA, WI, WY. And due to the extreme cold and wind which we experienced through the Christmas holidays of December 2022, many Osmanthus varieties won't be shipped until we are assured there is no cold damage. This may be as late as April or May, 2023. We may choose to delay shipping other plants as well.

Harlequin Japanese Cinnamon Tree. The Japanese Cinnamon is one of the more cold hardy species of this genus. This cultivar has pewter colored leaves with cream white margins. It will make a shrubby plant which is quite attractive, but it can eventually reach small tree proportions, if you or it live long enough. Flowers are not showy, but it will form black berries. In China it is used for medicinal purposes. I once considered this a slow grower, but have noticed flushes up to 18 inch on an established plant. Quite an eye-catcher and a real collector plant. Very rare. These are rooted cuttings on their own roots, not grafted. When I first saw this plant in Japan, it was used as a sheared hedge in a garden, which was approximately 8 ft. high.
