All Green Thumbs Nursery has added several new shrubs to the line up.

The Ilex Soft Touch and Ilex Carissa are evergreen and very compact. Perfect to add some green to a corner of the deck or patio.
Both Ilex ‘Soft Touch’ (Japanese Holly) and Ilex ‘Carissa’ (Chinese Holly) are popular, dense evergreen shrubs used to create low-maintenance mounds or hedges. While they share a similar rounded shape and deep green color, they have distinct differences in leaf texture, hardiness, and overall appearance.

The Clethra Hummingbird is also a compact shrub that would do nicely in a patio pot.
For a splash of color, the Echinacea Powwow Wild Berry is a show stopper and the Day Lilies are spectacular and very bright and cheery.
Most could be grown in larger decorator pots on a deck or tucked into a corner of the yard.  There are some smaller shrubs that would make excellent patio pots.
