The marketing team at Spring Meadow Nursery will unveil 32 new Proven Winners ColorChoice shrub varieties in a YouTube livestream event at 12 p.m. ET Friday, Feb. 21.
Shrubs covered will be varieties that are new to retail in 2025.
Positioned as a lunch-and-learn-style event, the one-hour session will be divided into four segments, covering evergreens and foliage interest, vines and native species, heat-tolerant shrubs, and roses, hydrangeas and edibles.
The event can be found under the “Live” tab on the Proven Winners ColorChoice YouTube channel, and a recording will be available to watch afterward.
The event will cover the inside story on new additions to series such as Just Chill Camellias, a fall blooming Camellia sasanqua hybrid with bold blooms, high-quality foliage and better hardiness, and the Fairytrail series of Cascade Hydrangeas, noted for their draping branches that display a cluster of blooms at every leaf node.
The livestream will also feature several new additions to the Deer Proof Plant Program, including the Paisley Pup Leucothoe and the shade-tolerant Sweet & Lo Sarcococca, with late winter blooms and glossy evergreen foliage. All are university-rated as being seldom damaged by deer.
The hosts will showcase these shrubs and more, while attendees can ask questions and receive real-time answers through the live chat during the event.
