,,shrubs for ,kansas ,landscapes ,cooperative ,extension ,service ,kansas ,state ,university ,manhattan ,this publication is one of a series of circulars to help you with your landscape planning4 ,use this bulletin when selecting shrubs for particular locations in your yard4 ,consider each plant for its intended use1 site location1 and exposure4 ,use the plant descriptions listed in the tables while visiting nurseries4 ,this will help you to realize the size and performance you may expect from the plants4 ,all shrubs that will grow in the various sections of ,kansas are not listed4 ,most of the shrubs mentioned were selected from the various ,kansas retail nursery catalogs4 ,a few shrub varieties are not listed in these retail catalogs1 but your nurseryman can get them from wholesale nurseries supplying ,kansas firms4 ,the varieties listed are the more common shrubs used for landscaping purposes and will provide you with a wide assortment of plant material to solve any landscaping need4 ,,gary ,l4 ,mc,d,a,n,i,e,l ,extension ,specialist ,landscaping and ,environmental ,horticulture ,the author wishes to thank ,larry ,d4 ,leuthold for helpful comments during the preparation of

house and trees in your yard4 ,each shrub used in your yard should fulfill a specific purpose for the overall design4 ,select shrubs that will provide accent for your entryway or border focal point1 soften corners and harsh lines1 or provide a low transition from one point to another4 ,shrubs are also useful for dividing spaces by separating use areas in the yard4 ,shrubs are used with trees to screen unpleasant views or protect our yards from strong winds4 ,shrubs as ,accent ,plants ,illustration3 ,accent end of walk if sidewalk approaches from driveway4 ,shrubs that create a definite accent must be used with more care in your landscape than shrubs that soften lines4 ,two primary areas in your landscape should be accented4 ,the most important of these is the front entryway to your home4 ,if the sidewalk to your front door approaches from the driveway along the front of the house1 the accent area is at the end of the walk4 ,this will provide a 8visual0 as well as a 8physical0 barrier that will point out the front door4 ,sidewalks that lead directly from the street to the door present a different situation4 ,accent may be created on either side of the front door1 but never make the plantings completely symmetrical on each side4 ,create a strong accent to one side and a less dominant accent on the other side of the entryway4 ,never use accent plants on the corners of your house4 ,accents may be created by 7#a7 ,height--taller plants catch the eye first2 7#b7 ,color--brightly colored foliage always attracts attention2 7#c7 ,texture--coarse leaf or stem textures provide strong contrasts2 and 7#d7 ,form--pyramidal shrubs or clipping shrubs into unnatural shapes will create accent4 ,illustration3 ,shrubbery should create a stronger accent on one side of the entryway4 ,illustration3 ,a single small upright ,juniper can be used to accent an entry4 ,illustration3 ,another accent area for your landscape may be located in your shrub border4 ,this area could be to the rear of your property1 where it can be viewed from the patio or living room window4 ,never place accent plants randomly through the shrub border4 ,this causes each accent plant to 8fight0

vertical lines at the corners of the house1 rather than call attention to them4 ,illustration3 ,shrubs will soften the lines at the corners of your house4 ,where windows are close to the corner1 select dwarf shrubs that will not grow higher than the sill4 ,never select shrubs that create an accent for corner plantings4 ,consider a brightly colored foliage on shrubs during the summer or fall as an accent4 ,do not plant upright-growing pyramidal evergreens1 such as ,junipers1 for planting at the corners of your home4 ,the shape of these plants creates an accent which will detract from the foundation planting4 ,instead of softening the harsh vertical lines at the corners of the house1 pyramidal-shaped shrubs call attention to them4 ,illustration3 ,use small ornamental trees to add a softer appearance to wall corners4 ,place these trees far enough away from the house that the branches will not rub against it when the tree is fully grown4 ,place low facer plants in front of the taller shrubs to give the corner planting more depth4 ,illustration3 ,floor length windows at the corners require low groundcovers or very dwarf shrubs below them4 ,a small ornamental tree will assist in softening the corner1 if you want some shade on the window4 ,extending the groundcover around the tree will make the mowing much easier4 ,,transition ,,plantings ,plants used as a transition are simply those shrubs or ground covers that pull together the plantings at the corners or accented entryways4 ,these shrubs are used to soften the lines of the house1 where the walls meet the ground4 ,use shrubs that will not call attention to themselves by having bright foliage or coarse leaf texture4 ,these shrubs also help to hide any exposed foundation walls along the house4 ,transition shrubs should be low-growing or dwarf in size4 ,if the siding of your house extends to the ground without leaving the foundation walls exposed1 a groundcover may be all that is required to add depth to the foundation planting4 ,illustration3 ,shrubs help hide unsightly construction ,illustration3 444 as planted ,illustration3 444 and soften harsh house lines4 ,illustration3 444 as planted ,,continuous ,,bloom ,,for ,,your ,,landscape ,whether you are selecting shrubs for the foundation plantings around the house or for a shrub border in your yard1 choose shrubs that will bloom at different seasons4 ,most of the flowering shrubs that are available bloom during the spring4 ,once some shrubs have finished blooming1 they have no other ornamental features4 ,the interest in your landscape will be lost1 unless you have selected some summer-blooming shrubs4 ,attempt to design your landscape so you can have continuous shrub bloom from early spring through late summer4 ,,shrub ,,order ,,of ,,bloom

from the building and out from the roof overhang4 ,in eastern ,kansas it is necessary to consider shade tolerance when planting on the north side of the house4 ,most shrubs will bloom more profusely and produce more fruit when planted in the sun1 even though they may survive quite well in deep shade4 ,often shrubs will grow better in shade simply because they are protected from the southwest winds4 ,if you don't want to plant dwarf shrubs #c to #d feet out from the foundation of the house1 then plant only shade tolerant shrubs4 ,what is often thought of as a shade problem is often the result of competition from the roots of adjoining trees4 ,apply plant food and water and thin the tree branches to correct this problem4 ,the shrubs listed for shady locations may be expected to perform adequately on the north side of the house or behind fences in deep shade4 ,many of these same shrubs will do equally well in strong sunlight or shade4 ,,deciduous ,,shrubs3 ,tall 7#aj feet or

planning your landscape4 ,when selecting shrubs for your yard1 determine the maximum height and spread you want from the planting1 and then select only from shrubs with those characteristics4 ,the shrubs listed in this bulletin have been grouped according to their mature heights4 ,if you are looking for a shrub that will grow under a window that is #d feet from the ground1 select from those listed as dwarf shrubs4 ,you certainly would not select a ,tatarian ,honeysuckle 7#aj to #ab feet7 for this location4 ,never select a shrub that will ultimately grow too high for its location and expect to keep it shorter by constant clipping4 ,this will only add to your time in maintaining your landscape4 ,illustration3 ,wrong selection of shrubs can be disastrous as shown by the planting on the right4 ,,maintaining ,,shrub ,,size ,shrubs will require periodic pruning to maintain their proper shape and size4 ,many shrubs will grow tall and spindly if not thinned-out occasionally4 ,some shrubs will sucker severely at the ground if the older stems or canes are not removed4 ,this causes the shrub to spread beyond its normal limits4 ,the proper method for maintaining shrub shape is to remove all canes that are larger than one inch in diameter4 ,these should be removed as close to the ground line as possible4 ,this practice will open the center of the plant so that more light can penetrate into it4 ,also1 the size of the shrub will be maintained at the desirable height4 ,illustration3 ,when removal of a cane has been decided upon1 make the cut as close to the ground as possible 7example ,a74 ,when an old cane selected for removal has a desirable shoot at its base1 make a cut as shown in example ,b4 ,note that the cut is slanted and is approximately inch above the shoot4 ,,adaptability ,,and ,,hardiness ,which plants are best suited for your landscape8 ,this will depend on whether the shrubs will be planted on a farmstead or in a city lot4 ,it will also depend on whether your yard is exposed to direct southwest winds1 or whether you have some protection4 ,plant adaptability has been considered for each shrub listed in this bulletin4 ,you may plant any shrub that is listed as #8,hardy' in an open1 fully exposed location and expect it to survive4 ,those shrubs that have an #8,x' will most likely not survive if planted where they will receive direct exposure to the hot winds of late summer4 ,if you live in a town or city1 you may have enough wind protection to use these shrubs4 ,this is most important for homeowners living in the western counties of ,kansas4 ,protection from southwest summer winds may be provided by a windbreak1 trees in the city1 by planting on the east or north side of the house1 or behind a screen fence4 ,if you have this protection you might be able to use plants that are not listed for your area4 ,however1 if your yard is exposed to hot summer winds1 you had better use only the plant listed for your section of ,kansas4 ,you will sometimes find plants growing in your area that are not listed for your particular section of ,kansas4 ,it is possible to grow some plants outside their recommended region1 provided these plants receive adequate protection and care4 ,these shrubs will usually not grow as large or as tall as they would further south or east4 ,if you are rather certain that your yard will provide enough protection for these plants1 you might try growing a few4 ,illustration3 ,,winds ,,shade ,,protection ,,variety ,,listings ,,of ,,shrubs ,common ,name ,botanical ,name ,height ,spread
