Theves Poplar
Theves Poplar Fast Growing and Long Lived Poplar The Theves Poplar is a fast growing deciduous tree. Plant a few to accent the entrance of your home or perhaps post some as sentries along your driveway. They also make a wonderful privacy hedge. Your Theves Poplar can grow more than six feet in the first year! It can reach 75 feet at maturity with a 10 foot spread. It grows in a dramatic manner, with a narrow upright thrust like a spire reaching into the sky. A charming feature of your Theves Poplar is that the oval dark green leaves have a silvery underside. This creates a flashing effect in the breeze that will draw your eye from wherever you’re standing in your yard. The bark of your Theves Poplar also has an ornamental quality with its whitish hue that is especially attractive in the winter when the leaves have gone. The autumn color of your Poplar is a muted yellow that although not as spectacular as other fall colors, tends to stand out because of the tall columnar effect of the tree. Your Theves Poplar is a hybrid of the Lombardy Poplar. It’s hardier and has superior longevity to the Lombardy, living up to 80 years in some instances. It resists many more diseases and insects too, and is tolerant of many conditions. If you have allergy sufferers in your home, they’ll especially appreciate its pollen-free nature. For a Poplar with a variety of unique features above and beyond the usual Poplar trees, the Theves is an outstanding choice. * Fast-Growing * Long-lived * Ornamental features * Hardy

| 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.

| 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 |
