Winter King Hawthorn
Small Ornamental Tree with Outstanding Winter Interest  The Winter King Hawthorn is a small ornamental tree with particular winter interest. It would do well anywhere you’d like an ornamental tree but don’t have much room. The outstanding feature of your Hawthorn is its winter features. The silver-grey bark tends to peel, revealing an inner peachy-copper hue. This is best exposed after the dark green leaves transform to their golden reds in autumn and fall to the ground. The younger branches tend toward a lighter green shade, giving your Hawthorn additional color and contrast. It’s in autumn when you’ll also notice the ½ inch bright red berries. The berries remain through the winter and are a welcome treat for your wildlife. Your Winter King Hawthorn can reach a height of 30 feet with an equal spread. The 2 inch glossy green leaves with serrated edges do a terrific job of filling out the canopy, aiding in the dense growth pattern of your tree. You’ll love the clusters of ¾ inch white flowers that appear, their gentle fragrance a welcome addition to your spring yard. The Winter King Hawthorn is a hardy tree that is relatively small in stature but will still provide you with year-round interest. However, the time it truly shines is in the winter. A Hawthorn in your yard during the winter months has the effect of a silvery-grey tree decorated with dangling red berries. It truly is a “winter king” among trees in the usually barren cold landscape, and a must-have for your yard this year. * Outstanding winter interest * Year-round interest * Great for wildlife * Hardy

Crape Myrtle - Pink - DetailsCrape Myrtle - Pink - Sale Price: $92.75
The Pink Crape Myrtle, 'Lagerstroemia indica Rosea, is a handsome, summer-flowering, deciduous small tree or shrub. It is a favorite among Southern gardeners because of its beauty and low maintenance. The crape myrtle is valued mainly for its long period of striking summer flowers. Large clusters of pink flowers appear on the tips of new branches beginning in early summer and continue into fall. After flowers fade and fall from the tree, fruit remains in the form of small brown capsules. These fruits remain throughout the winter providing winter interest along with the attractive, exfoliating bark which peels away to expose a trunk which ranges in color from many handsome shades of brown to gray. The Pink Crape Myrtle is ideally suited for formal or informal design in the home landscape, street plantings and community plantings. It can be planted as a specimen or in groups, and looks attractive when underplanted with a ground cover. Crape myrtle leaves are oval and 1 to 2 inches long; they are bronze-colored when they first unfold in the spring and become yellow, orange or red before falling late in autumn. Crape Myrtle is easy to grow and if they are used for hedges, plant them 4 to 5 feet apart. Your landscape ‘needs’ one of these gorgeous plants!

Even when the flowers have faded and the fruit is not yet obvious, you’ll be surprised by the captivating sight a simple breeze drifting through its leaves creates.  The five inch long oblong leaves are dark green, but the surface is shiny.  Each leaf also has a delightful underside of sliver-white.  This combination creates a shimmering effect with the slightest movement and a unique bi-color appearance.   The Sweet Bay Magnolia is an ornamental tree with a lot to offer.  It would make a lovely addition to your landscape.   * Fast-growing * Spring-summer flowers * Attractive to wildlife  

Star Magnolia - DetailsStar Magnolia - Sale Price: $78.50
The Star Magnolia, ‘Magnolia stellata’ is a beautiful flowering magnolia. If your yard isn’t big enough or your climate isn’t warm enough for the Southern Magnolia, choose the Star. It’s one of the smallest magnolias. The Star is a very slow-growing perennial shrub or small tree native to Japan. In early spring, it will give you an unparalleled show of star-shaped white flowers, often with a pale pink stripe running down the inner petals. From a distance, it looks like a bouquet of baby’s breath, but with 3”-4” flowers — an amazing sight. In the fall, the foliage turns an interesting yellow-bronze. The delicately-fragranced flowers can be injured by late spring frosts, so plant it in a protected area, preferably with northern exposure. The Star Magnolia prefers organic, acidic soil and full sun, and is not as susceptible to magnolia scale as other varieties. Use as a single specimen, border background or a foundation planting. Zones 4-8. White Flowers Fall color Fragrant

Lacebark Elm - DetailsLacebark Elm - Sale Price: $96.35
The Lacebark Elm tree, Ulmus parvifolia, is a superb tree for urban conditions and should be widely considered for use as a street tree. This deciduous shade tree is a very hardy, tough tree that is capable of withstanding the rigors of harsh climates, poor soils and streetscape situations. The species is known for quick growth, particularly if planted in fertile, well drained soils. The dark green, oval leaves of the lacebark elm vary from 3/4 to 2 1/2 inches in length. Most lacebark elms lose their leaves late in the fall. Fall leaf color is variable, but some yellowish to reddish purple is possible even in warmer climates. The bark of this elm is perhaps its finest feature. The grey bark begins to exfoliate or peel off in small patches as the trunk matures resulting in an interesting combination of mottled colors beneath, including green, gray, orange and brown. * Tolerates Poor Soil * Shade Tree * Fast Growing

Elm - Regal - DetailsElm - Regal - Sale Price: $114.20
The Regal Elm, Ulmus 'Regal', has large dark-green glossy leaves.  It has an upright character, transplants well, and will tolerate a wide range of conditions. 'Regal' Elm develops a strong central leader with an upright or columnar growth habit when young, becoming more ovate with age.  Its leaves are dark green in summer, and show no appreciable fall coloration.   Because the leaves are rather sparsely borne, they cast a honeylocust-like light shade that makes possible the successful culture of turf grass in the vicinity of the tree. Considered highly resistant to DED and verticillium wilt, this Elm is also a good urban tree since it is highly resistant to Dutch elm disease.  It has proved very tolerant of hot and arid conditions, exhibiting minimal leaf scorch. 'Regal' has an upright columnar form similar to 'Commelin', making it particularly suitable for street planting. * Upright, columnar * Resistant to Dutch elm disease * Street tree
