Evergreens to Go
Late Spring 2002 - Vol. 15 No.2

Spring is the perfect time to get your evergreens planted. They like to spend the growing season getting their roots established. Field-grown Dark American Arbovitae, the classic hedge shrub, have been dug. We have a large selection of junipers in our pot production area. Junipers are the perfect plant for a hot, dry, sunny site. For rock gardens or tight spaces choose Creeping Cypress, Bird’s Nest Spruce, Pumila Norway Spruce, or the perfectly conical Dwarf Alberta Spruce, which will also survive winter in a pot.

Yews, the old-time favorite, have always been offered at the Nursery and they always will be. The dark green color of their soft evergreen needles is unbeatable.

While you’re here, check out our assortment of unique evergreens. Some of them are more yellow than green and some lose their needles in the winter.
