Plants: American Beauties

One of the easiest ways you can design native plants into your landscape is by using the American Beauties Brand. This group of plants will take the guesswork out of native plants by creating (4) possible gardens: Bird, Butterfly, Dry Shade, and Moist Sun.

Better yet, each American Beauties plant sold will benefit the National Wildlife Federation. With each purchase a donation will be made to help fund the home habitat work and outreach programs that create a better landscape environment for you and the colorful garden critters you love.

Below is a listing of the American Beauties Native Plants available at Northeast Nursery. If you are interested in availability or pricing, contact contact Chris Barboza, our Retail Nursery Manager.

	Red Maple / Swamp Red Maple Acer rubrum 'Red Sunset' Dense clusters of red flowers in late winter offer nectar early in the season. Cardinals, chipmunks and squirrels eat the red, winged "helicopter" fruits. The stems and twigs are reddish; the buds are red; and, in fall, the leaves turn orange-red.		Red Maple Acer rubrum 'Autumn Flame' Red maple is one of the earliest blooming trees in the northeast. The flowers provide nectar for small bees, flies and beetles, which in turn attract insect-eating birds such as kinglets, phoebes, pine warblers and others.
	Sugar Maple Acer saccharum A dense, rounded crown, one of the trees responsible for giving New England its reputation for spectacular fall color, as the medium green leaves turn brilliant yellow or red-orange in autumn.		Nodding Onion / Nodding Wild Onion Allium cernuum Easy to identify by its distinctive, nodding, pastel lilac-pink flowers in late spring, Thrives in challenging sites such as hot sun and gravely soil. It is strikingly beautiful and is well-suited a formal or wild garden.
	Shadblow Amelanchier canadensis One of the first native trees with showy flowers to bloom, serviceberry has slightly fragrant, white flowers in drooping clusters that are quite conspicuous because they appear before the leaves emerge. The nectar attracts butterflies.		Little Lanterns Columbine Aquilegia canadensis 'Little Lanterns' A compact columbine that only grows 10" tall. Deep red and yellow nodding flowers top blue-green foliage for many weeks in spring. This is a good choice for shade gardens, woodland gardens, rock gardens and naturalized areas.
	Common Bearberry Arctostaphylos uva-ursi 'Massachusetts' An evergreen groundcover that is suited to sandy or other well-drained soils with acidic pH. It can be a marvelous solution for a difficult site since it grows where few other plants are happy.		Dutchman's Pipe Aristolochia macrophylla This deciduous woody vine is an old-fashioned favorite grown for its large, heart-shaped, glossy green leaves (6-12" long) which can quickly cover sun porches, verandas, pillars, posts, trellises, arbors, fences or walls.
	Red Chokeberry Aronia arbutifolia 'Brilliantissima' This deciduous shrub has it all! Fruit for the birds, nectar for insects, cover for wildlife and multi-season beauty. Clusters of spring blooming white to pinkish flowers provide loads of nectar for pollinators.

Pollinated by ants, its unique purplish brown flowers appear beneath the leaves in spring.
	Swamp Milkweed Asclepias incarnata Has big heads of rose pink, sweetly scented flowers. It's not unusual to see two or three butterflies on a single flower at the same time. Grows naturally in wet soil but also grows well in regular garden soil.		Butterfly Weed Asclepias tuberosa Produces many bright orange, flat-topped flower clusters in early June. Flowering goes on for many weeks. Green pods full of seeds with silky white hairs follow the flowers.
	Woodland Aster Aster divaricatus The backbone of many late summer and fall landscapes. The white woodland aster is a terrific ground cover and is especially valuable because it grows so well in dry shade. Thin, nearly black stems are topped with clouds of white flowers.		Smooth Aster Aster laevis 'Bluebird' Big cone-shaped clusters of violet-blue flowers with golden yellow centers appear on the top of a vase shaped clump. Unlike many others, this has perfectly clean foliage. Tolerates a variety of soil types and moisture levels.
