Bald Cypress - Sale Price: $96.35 An extremely long living, fast growing, stately tree. The Bald Cypress (Taxodium distichum) looks like an evergreen, but is actually deciduous so it drops its foliage in the fall, hence the name “bald”. It is a lofty, deciduous conifer with a slender, pyramidal habit. Its mature height is 50-75 feet and it grows a rapid 2.5 feet a year. The Bald Cypress is best known for growing in wet areas but it is easily adaptable to dry areas and city conditions. It is an exceptionally long living tree. The oldest known Bald Cypress is over 1,600 years old and is located in North Carolina. It’s a wonderful choice if you want a tree that will be around for generations to come. The needle-like leaves are a radiant green in the spring and summer. The foliage is almost fern-like giving the tree a graceful appearance. In the fall your Bald Cypress will turn a beautiful cinnamon-red color. Its gently swaying foliage is sure to be an attention getter. Finally, in the winter the interest is found in the bark. The Bald Cypress has a copper-brown bark that peels off in long strips, yet another distinctive and unique characteristic of this wonderful tree. *  Fast Growing*  Long life expectancy*  Low maintenance

Crape Myrtle - Purple - Sale Price: $32.95 Purple Blooms All Summer Long The Crape Myrtle is a deciduous shrub that provides delightful purple color all summer long.  Plant one in your ornamental bed or anywhere you’d enjoy enduring color. The best feature of the Crape Myrtle is certainly the impressive purple display it enacts each year.  Beginning in early summer and continuing into the fall, your Crape Myrtle will dazzle you with its purple blossoms that appear in large clusters at the tips of its branches.  Hummingbirds, dragonflies and butterflies will love your yard, but you won’t have to worry about deer having the same interest.  When the crepe-like flowers fall, the brown capsules of the fruit remain, providing another decorative feature of the plant.   Crape Myrtle grows 10-20 feet in height with an 8-10 feet spread.  It won’t give you any trouble if you chose to prune it to a small shape, and it’s drought tolerant and quite hardy.  You’ll love how the Crape Myrtle seems to be always awash in color.  Even the leaves start out as a charming bronze in the spring.  They then transition into a verdant green that endures throughout the summer months.  When fall arrives your Myrtle will once again immerse itself in color as its leaves transform into brilliant reds and yellows.   The Crape Myrtle has something to offer whatever the season, and it will certainly offer you enjoyment for years to come. * Year round color* Hardy

Double Flowering Plum - Tree Form - Sale Price: $122.75 The Double Flowering plum, ‘Prunus triloba’ is grown in tree form. This large shrub has been trained to a head, forming at two to three feet on a single stem. A familiar sight across the northeast quadrant of the U.S in May, the Double Flowering Plum (or Rose Tree of China), puts on quite a show with its gorgeous double candy-pink flowers blanketing each branch with fat pom-poms of color. It tends toward a round shape, is a robust grower and easily rivals the annual display of Washington cherry blossoms in northern areas. From a distance, a stand of these trees looks like a pink cotton cloud; few spring-blooming trees get the reaction that this one does. The foliage is more of a grass-green than dark green, and turns to an attractive yellow-bronze color in the fall. The Double Flowering Plum can take a lot of abuse in terms of soil condition, but it does need good sun, good drainage and ample room to perform at its best. Zones 3-8.

Red Maple - Sale Price: $99.95 Fast-Growing Maple Tree with Red Feature   The Red Maple is a fast-growing deciduous tree with ornamental features.  It would make a terrific specimen tree for your front yard.   The outstanding feature of the Red Maple can be found in its name.  Acer “rubrum” refers to the color red, and red is certainly this tree’s defining feature. Before the leaves appear in the spring you will notice red buds and tiny red flowers. Twigs and stems are reddish in color as well, and the 2-winged samara seeds also begin with a lovely red hue.  When fall arrives, your Red Maple will be one of the first to color, quickly cloaking itself in more of the vibrant red shades that give it its name.   The Red Maple grows to 70 feet in height with a 50 foot spread.  You’ll love its rounded oval crown and the elegant symmetry it brings to your yard.  The six inch leaves are the traditional maple leaf shape with a verdant sheen on top and slightly paler underside.  You won’t have to fuss with the Red Maple as it’s tolerant of most soils and cold hardy.    An added benefit of the Red Maple is that the sap can be used to make syrup, although it’s not generally valued as highly as the Sugar Maple for that purpose.   For a carefree and lovely landscape tree, look no further than the Red Maple.    * Fast-Growing* Ornamental features * Edible sap
