Tami, Just so that you don't make the same mistakes I have you might want to post the species here to double check sizes. Grows to 8' on the label can become 15-18' in my experience. I've found Plant Files data does not always accurately describe the ultimate size of shrubs I have either. If you're skeptical take a look a Polly's post here: The thread "Salix Hakuro Nishiki" in Trees and Shrubs forum.

Here's another example: Alberta Spruce supposed to grow to 6-8'
