Weeping Willow Tree

Weeping Willow Tree

The Weeping Willow tree is a whimsical giant, recognized by its crown of sweeping, low-hanging branches. Its long, slender leaves are an early indicator of spring, along with its yellow twigs and green leaves. It is one of the first trees to sprout new leaves in the spring and the first to lose leaves in the fall. The tree is an easy-to-grow species that takes root quickly, grows up to 8 feet per year, and can reach heights and widths of up to 40 feet under optimal conditions. In the spring, weeping willows produce what are referred to as catkins. These are silver-tinted green foliage that contains flowers. In the fall, the weeping willows' lance-shaped leaves turn golden.

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.

I just want to say I would give 5 star satisfaction but my trees are just now in the ground. My shipment arrived fast and in great condition. The bare root trees already trimmed to perfection. I am so pleased. Been in the ground a week and already have green growth.
