As I see trees that I want, I think I’ll start listing them here so I don’t forget them. Even though the landscaping is “finished”, Skip will be back in the spring to really finish. They just took too long this fall and everything is frozen, so they really had to quit.
I just saw a beautiful weeping white pine that I think I’d like to find a place for. One of the things I saw was that you have to place a pipe deep in the ground next to the trunk and as tall as you want the tree to grow to train it properly, or it won’t grow up, but will be rather bent over and ugly. So I have to remember to do that.
Supposedly, it’s hardy to zone 3, so it should be safe in my yard.
