Hedge a Betula on these plants!

Written by

Betula n. ‘Heritage’ makes a great ornamental shade tree as well as an allée along a driveway with its year-round interest. Pinus bungeana has a beautifully exfoliating bark also. It makes an attractive focal tree or screen plants if planted in groups.
Cercis canadensis is a familiar plant to most people. The bright early spring flowers signify the coming of warmer weather. Magnolia virginiana’s fragrant June flowers contrast elegantly with its rich green leaves. Both make a great specimen flowering tree in a formal location or fit in nicely when blending maintained and natural areas.

At this time of year, we are busy grafting future inventory. This week we are grafting conifers like the Larix k. ‘Varied Directions’ pictured above. Our extremely talented propagators are making sure there is a great selection of material for years to come. The Larix they just grafted will be ready to sell in 6 – 10 years!

Trucks with Great Plants on their way!

Written by

The summer is heating up and so are plant sales. Much of the north east quadrant of the US is getting less rain and is starting to dry out. This means projects are being worked on and plants are going into the ground. We have trucks moving material from Minneapolis, MN to Boston, MA up into Michigan and all points in between. We can get material delivered to you quickly, too!

Sounds like the right plants for the upcoming July 4th celebrations.  But they are great plants for the entire season!

Hydrangea pan ‘Bombshell’ #3 are very full and will be blooming soon.  These compact plants reach 2 – 3’ tall and 3 – 4’ wide.  Their compact habit leads to a spectacular flower show that covers the plant.

Morden Fireglow Rose is a low growing plant that reaches 3’ tall and wide. The flowers are fire orange on top and scarlet on the bottom of the pedals.  It is a repeat bloomer that is very disease resistant.  The leaves are clean despite all the rainy days we have experienced.
