Red Mulberry - Sale Price: $85.65  Carefree Tree with Delicious Fruit The Red Mulberry is a fruit-bearing tree that is not only lovely, but useful to both humans and wildlife.  The most attractive feature of this tree is the fruit it produces.  Look closely in the spring and you’ll notice small, green catkin-like spikes amid your Mulberry’s branches.  These will soon turn into the raspberry-like berries that you’ve been waiting for.  Each berry is a fascinating site to behold as it transforms through deepening shades of red then to a deep purple. When you step outside in the morning, you’ll likely hear the chirps and cheeps of the neighborhood birds filling your Mulberry tree as they share in the bounty.    Mulberries can be eaten directly from your tree, or save some for pies, preserves and wine.  They’re a delicious sweet treat on a summer day.   Your Mulberry has a rounded crown and grows to about 50 feet.  The 5 inch oblong, toothed dark green leaves are particularly interesting because each tree can have several different shaped leaves.  When fall approaches, the leaves turn a lively yellow to brighten your yard.   A Red Mulberry tree is an essential addition to any yard where an easy-to-care-for fruit tree is desired.  Simply plant and wait…soon you’ll have a beautiful tree and delicious harvest for yourself and wildlife.   * Care-free tree * Edible fruit * Attractive to wildlife

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
