Flowering Dogwood Tree

Flowering Dogwood Tree

Dogwood trees are grafted to make the red and pink varieties. Their twisted branches and delicate petals with bloodstains on the edges endorse them as the type of tree Christ was crucified on the cross. This lush tree has small, vibrant green leaves that accompany its flowers along the twig-like branches. It grows in a low-branching, vase shape, with interweaving branches that create a thick canopy. As the tree matures, it develops a rounder shape, extending its branches out horizontally and growing more widespread. It flowers in spring, sprouting delicate flowers whose petals fade from white into a glorious pink, hugging around the light green center to create a small trumpet-style bloom. These heavenly flowers are beautiful against the small, bright green leaves. In summer, the flowers fade to reveal a bright red fruit that is edible and will attract birds and insects. The bark adds visual dimension to this plant as well, as it has exfoliating patches of tan bark under the grey-brown outer layer. Legend has it that the tree was twisted after the Crucifixion so it could never be used again for timber harvesting.

Red Maple

I had doubts when I first opened the box. Packaged well. After planting them after two weeks they came to life and are flourishing quite well. They are very healthy and now branching out vividly. Thank you!

Giant Chicory!

I purchased a selection of blue plants. I planted the bare roots in a large planter I call the nursery. I wait until they are adapting to their new environment. When they start growing about three inches, I transplant to a larger pot, then to their permanent location in my garden. One grew to four feet. Others are 1- 2 feet! I can see buds sprouting and can’t wait until they bloom. I did have to cut the 4ft one down to 2 ft so it would get fuller.

My favorite spring flower

My absolute favorite spring flower. I’ve bought several over the years. Sometimes I’ve found they might not come up until the second year but most from this nursery come in the next spring.
