A pint of blood in America sells to hospitals for $180 to $300, depending on the market, and expired blood often is sold to research laboratories, said Ben Bowman, chief executive of General Blood, the blood broker engaged in a legal tussle with Oklahoma City-based OBI.
âCristatumâ crested lady fern (Athyrium filix femina âCristatumâ) is an evergreen fern that is easy to grow in USDA zones 4 through 9. This 1- to 3-foot-tall plant thrives in full or partial shade and produces ruffled fronds that fall slightly in an arching manner.
The list might include evergreen trees of hollies, cherry laurel, tree ligustrum, loquat, myrtle oak, sand live oak, and sweet acacia plus deciduous selections of Chinese elm, red bud, river birch and winged elm. Most of these grow less than 40 feet tall and not as wide.
