Eastern Redbud
One of the earliest spring bloomers. The Eastern Redbud (Cercis canadensis) is one of the first trees to flower in the spring. What a welcome sight for you and your neighbors after a long winter. Large, showy clusters of soft pink to magenta flowers appear in late winter or early spring. The Eastern Redbuds unique form and shape are highlighted by the blooms as they can grow right out of the trunk and branches. The tree will be truly covered in gorgeous pink to purple blossoms. Soon after your Redbud blooms, light green, perfectly heart shaped leaves will emerge. This forms the perfect backdrop to enhance the stunning blossoms color. From summer to fall the leaves transform from a shimmering light green; will darken to a beautiful emerald green and finally turn a bright golden yellow.  The Eastern Redbud grows 1-2 feet a year; its mature height is 20-30 feet. A perfect size if you have limited space but this tree can stand out even in the largest yard. *  Early bloomer*  Disease resistant*  Low maintanance

Chinese Chestnut - DetailsChinese Chestnut - Sale Price: $78.50
The Chinese Chestnut is currently planted as a replacement for the American Chestnut, which was obliterated by blight in the 1900s. Most store-shelf chestnuts usually come from Spain, but the Spanish Chestnut tree is not at all cold-hardy and can be vulnerable to blight as well. The Chinese Chestnut serves both as an ornamental dark-green shade tree and as a less-risky nut producer, providing its caretaker with pounds of sweet chestnuts to roast, puree, boil and even make gluten-free flour out of. This all-purpose deciduous tree is blight-resistant and prefers moist, acidic, well-drained soils in full sun, but can manage in dry soils of varying pH; hot, arid climates are OK as well. A good all-around choice for a yard shade tree, the Chinese Chestnut will bring yellow and gold color to your autumn landscape and is amazing when planted near Autumn Purple Ash. Zones 4-8.
