Summit Ash - Sale Price: $114.95 The Summit Ash, Fraxinus pennsylvanica 'Summit', is a vigorous selection of Green Ash that features a straight trunk and is uniformly upright in habit.  Being very hardy, it tends to color early in the fall with golden yellow color! Although reported to be a female selection, seed production has not been a problem.  It rarely is fed on by Japanese beetles.   Once developed properly in the nursery, the trunk remains straight up through the crown of the tree, and the branch habit is reported to be better than the species.  Early pruning helps assure that this happens. The attractive bark is red-tinged and furrowed, and it is reportedly thicker than other Ashes.  The tree grows quickly and can sometimes reach 80 feet in height. Summit has green to reddish-purple flowers that appear in spring.  This tree has been successfully grown in urban areas where air pollution, poor drainage, compacted soil, and/or drought are common! * Hardy * Upright habit * Fall color

White Fringe Tree - Sale Price: $78.50 Sometimes called Grancy Graybeard or Old Man’s Beard, a reference to the airy, drooping clusters of fringy vanilla flowers that appear each spring. This is a delightful maintenance-free shrub or small tree with an elegant, spreading-but-rounded habit. The spectacular, pleasantly-fragrant flowers give over to clusters of olive-like fruits which ripen to a dark navy blue in late summer, an event eagerly anticipated by local birds and wildlife. It’s a deciduous tree/shrub; the broad, long spear-shaped leaves turn yellow in autumn. White Fringetrees are easily grown in average, moist, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade; they are, however, not at all happy with city air pollution and prolonged dry spells. Plant Fringetrees in small sprays of three or four along woodland borders, or near streams or ponds; they also work well as a hedge, divider or as specimens. Zones 4-9. * White flowers * Fragrant * Wildlife Tree

Sourwood - Sale Price: $99.95 Deciduous Tree with Ornamental Features Sourwood is a deciduous tree with ornamental features. One would look great planted by your patio or at the edge of a perennial bed. Your Sourwood tree is an exquisite tree prized for its spring and fall color. Imagine the delicate Lily-of-the-Valley flower. Now visualize those hanging in 8-inch panicles from your tree as spring emerges in your yard. The dainty white flowers, fragrant and lovely, will bring an understated elegance to your yard. They are the reason this tree is sometimes called the “Lily-of-the-Valley Tree”. As spring recedes and summer begins, 8-inch glossy green leaves will cover your Sourwood tree. They actually taste sour, inspiring the name “sourwood”. Those same vibrant leaves will put on a dramatic show when autumn arrives and they burst into a brilliant crimson red that is sure to turn every head in the neighborhood. The grey seed capsules that follow your beautiful spring flowers will now also become evident as an impressive contrast to the scarlet leaves. These will persist on the Sourwood even after leaf drop and provide needed sustenance for your wildlife. The Sourwood tree grows to about 30 feet in height with a 15 foot spread. It grows straight and true with a narrow crown. The bees love the summer flowers, and their honey is highly prized as superior among some gourmet chefs. It’s a delightful tree, and will certainly be a beautiful and beneficial addition to your landscape. * Spring and fall color* Wildlife appeal

White Oak - Sale Price: $78.50 Magnificent Long-Lived Shade Tree The White Oak is an extraordinary deciduous tree known for its size and strength.  It would be outstanding as the preeminent shade tree in your yard. The White Oak is a magnificent native American tree that will provide a statuesque presence in your yard, as well as shade for your home and habitat for wildlife.   It’s a long-lived tree with some being documented at over 500 years old.   The White Oak reaches only around 85 feet in height, but standing in its presence one has the impression of being cared for and sheltered under its massive limbs that extend far out from its trunk.  In fact, it’s not uncommon for the White Oak to be wider than it is tall.  The branches grow in wide angles, forming an incredibly broad rounded crown.  The crown is rugged in appearance, again giving the impression of strength and stability.    The only softness in this tree comes in the spring when the leaves begin for form with a soft pink tint and fuzzy down that is soft to the touch.  You’ll note a unique silvery hue that gives the tree a unique silvery appearance.  To see one in the spring morning dew is to feel one has stepped into a fairy tale.   The White Oak’s 5 inch leaves turn red to purple in autumn, and 1 inch acorns tumble to the ground in October.  The acorns are a bit smaller than those of some other oaks, but are less bitter.  Native Americans used them as a food source and wildlife love them. This majestic tree is one of the best known hardwoods in N. America.  Its wood is very dense and strong so used extensively for various things including furniture and even some weapons.  In fact, the USS Constitution is made of white oak.   For a long-lived, strong and durable tree, the White Oak is the perfect choice. * Long-lived* Autumn color
