Ohio Buckeye Tree
Ornamental Tree with Brilliant Fall Color The Ohio Buckeye is prized for its showy fall color and unique fruit.  It would look terrific as a main accent in your front yard or anywhere you have a little extra space for an interesting ornamental tree. Buckeyes can grow to 75 feet in height, but are generally around 30 feet.  The Buckeye has a rounded crown that lends a lovely symmetry to the landscape.  It tends to leaf out early, so if you have a Buckeye, your yard will be one of the first on the block to enjoy bright green color.  The 6-inch long leaflets form a leaf structure that is reminiscent of a palm, bringing an added bit of interest for those who take a closer look. Spring also brings the arrival clusters of bright yellow flowers that will draw hummingbirds to your yard with their bright color and sweet nectar. Perhaps the most valued feature of the Buckeye tree is the fall color it provides.  As autumn approaches, your tree will transform from its summer deep green to a brilliant bright orange.  Your yard is sure to turn heads when the Buckeye displays its fall plumage! The Ohio Buckeye Tree is the state tree of Ohio but you don’t have to live there to appreciate it. It’s a great addition to any yard, and it will look great in yours. * Bright yellow spring flowers* Amazing fall color* Nuts for wildlife* Great shade tree

Oklahoma Redbud - DetailsOklahoma Redbud - Sale Price: $107.05
Small Ornamental Tree with Seasonal Interest The Oklahoma Redbud is a small deciduous tree with seasonal interest.  It would look lovely in a formal setting by your patio or walkway, or scatter a few about the lawn for a more naturalized effect. Redbuds are highly prized for the amount of color they produce in the spring and fall.  Small enough to grow in a variety of locations in your yard, the Redbud is an excellent understory plant growing 15-25 feet tall with a 15-20 foot spread.   When spring arrives, your Redbud will put on quite a show.  Watch as tiny pink/red blooms seem to overpower the branches, covering them in radiant floral beauty.  Dark green and intensely shiny, the heart-shaped leaves emerge soon after.  The leaves leaf out into a rounded, irregular crown that is the Redbud’s summer glory.  Adding to that glory in your yard, 3-inch seedpods will soon appear.  The pods will remain a lovely lavender color through the summer and into the winter months. When autumn arrives, your Redbud will treat you to a variety of hues ranging from reds and purples to shades of orange.  Redbud flowers and seeds are reportedly edible, with the flowers having a somewhat nutty flavor.  Various parts of the tree have been used medicinally in the past as well.  Of course if you’re not inclined to use the Redbud seeds, your backyard birds will certainly take care of them for you. The Oklahoma Redbud takes up very little room, but offers you so much in return.  Plant one today and enjoy their rare and interesting beauty. * Spring color* Interesting seed pods* Fall color

Hackberry - DetailsHackberry - Sale Price: $64.25
 Fast Growing Tree with Edible Fruit The Hackberry is a fast growing, deciduous tree that produces edible fruit. Plant one in your yard for its shade and seasonal interest, especially if you have a place where the soil is too poor for other trees. Your Hackberry can grow up to 60 feet with a 40-50 foot spread, so it’s quite an expansive shade tree for your yard. It has a cylindrical shape with 5-inch alternate, green leaves with undersides of a slightly yellow hue. Those leaves will turn completely yellow in autumn for a showy accent in your yard. Your Hackberry’s foliage arrives at the same time as the ¼-inch spring flowers, giving your tree a vivacious, lime-green appearance that will certainly draw your eye. Those flowers will eventually give way to 1/3-inch, deep-purple drupes that can persist on your tree into the winter months. The drupes have a somewhat date-like flavor and were traditionally used by Native Americans as a food source. Wildlife will also treasure the tiny fruits for the added nutrition they can provide, in addition to the shelter and nesting opportunities the tree presents. The Hackberry’s trunk has a corky appearance, offering some added decorative definition to the barren winter landscape. That wood can also be used for furniture or other projects (it’s soft but heavy). Hackberry trees are tolerant of most conditions, including wind and urban conditions. It’s a great way to have an impressive shade tree with ornamental appeal in less time than other large trees would require. The edible fruit sweetens the deal as a fun and useful addition to an already outstanding tree. * Fast-growing shade* Spring and fall color* Edible fruit* Wildlife interest

Cascade Falls Bald Cypress - DetailsCascade Falls Bald Cypress - Sale Price: $96.35
A Conifer of Unusual Appearance Cascade Falls Bald Cypress is a long-lived conifer with an unusual appearance.  It would draw attention planted in your small garden or along a retaining wall where it could “flow” over the stone. Neighbors may gaze at the beauty of your summer yard as they pass by, but they will stop and ask questions about Cascade Falls.  Cascade Falls is a weeping form of the much larger Bald Cypress.  Branches grow out from the trunk and plunge downward in an arch to trail upon the ground.  Bright green needles line the branches, turning brown in the autumn before falling to the ground.  You won’t notice the flowers and fruit of the Cascade Falls because they’re rather inconspicuous, but you will notice the birds and butterflies that come to visit because of them. The Cascade Falls allows for your own personal creativity.  You can decide how you want this conifer to look, making it a unique one-of-a-kind statement for your garden.  Stake it and allow it to grow up to 20 feet tall with an 8 foot spread.  Leave it un-staked and it will form an uncommon ground cover.   Nothing draws attention to a yard like the unusual, and Cascade Falls is certainly a rare and unusual find among conifers.  Choose this one-of-a-kind conifer for your one-of-a kind garden today. * Unusual appearance* Long-lived* Adaptable to pruning
