tishrh, I am sorry but I could not come up with an unusual plant for zone 5, hopefully someone else will chime in and help.
I have always admired the Japanese Maple Acer palmatum 'Butterfly' but I am unable to grow it in my zone.





Deebie, welcome, and we thank you for your very nice comment. we will be waiting to see your pictures.
I do have a Philo Zanadu as well, and I compared the leaves, the noid has much bigger leaves and they have quite a few brown spots on th petioles and leaf blades.
