Due to the recent discovery of the spotted lanternfly in South Carolina, California has restricted the shipment of plants from SC as well as 15 other states in which the spotted lanternfly had already been found. It was found over 100 miles from Nurseries Caroliniana, but the whole state has been put under quarantine until a treatment protocol can be worked out to resume shipments to California. Authorities hope that this can be accomplished by the end of the month.

Spilt Milk Variegated Lespedeza. This selection in addition to having a show of color with its midsummer and fall flowers, also gives additional interest with it white marbled leaves. The variegation is truly spectacular. Plant in full sun to part shade and prune the old branches to the ground in late winter or early spring. Since it is a Legume, it can perform with little to no supplemental fertilizer. All Lespedezas have dense root systems making them an excellent choice for soil erosion control on banks or slopes. This selection will grow in full sun to part shade and it will hold its leaf variegation better with some shade, but flowering will not be as heavy.
