The Grass "Blues Little Bluestem Grass" (Schizachyrium scoparium), which can grow to a height of 2 to 3 feet, has an attractive deep blue color which turns to burgundy red in the fall. Although "The Blues" is drought tolerant and can adapt to a variety of soils, it prefers a well drained soil and works well in mass plantings. It gradually grows to an upright with spreading fine textured leaves which are subject to lodging. Its fall color can vary from tan to copper, from orange to dark orange red. It remains attractive in winter.

McIntosh Apple Tree

The McIntosh apple, an early and heavy producer, has a white, soft and fine-textured flesh which is enjoyed for its tangy and aromatic flavor. The apple is a large fruit whose skin has a mixed red and green coloring. Although its skin is rather tough, it's a favorite for eating just as it is, right off the tree, or in salads, sauces, and pies. Not only is the McIntosh an all time favorite for fresh eating and salads, it is widely used for making fresh cider, juice, and pies.

The Virginia Creeper

The Virginia Creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia) is a fast-growing, high-climbing vine that attaches itself with tendrils which expand, disk-like, on their tips. The deciduous leaves radiate outward from a leaf stem, like spokes on a wheel. each leaflet is about 3 to 7 inches long and an inch or two wide. Where there is nothing to climb, it attaches to the ground with adventitious roots, and makes an excellent cover for slopes or other places where grass is not practical or desired.
