Trees & Shrubs...

Trees & Shrubs can be a wonderful addition to your property, not only for the beauty they can provide, but they can also provide shade, attract wildlife and beneficial insects also. 

What is the difference between a tree and a shrub? Trees are woody, perennial plants that have one central stem, are generally more than 12 feet in height, and normally have a distinct head. Shrubs are woody, perennial plants that have a number of stems usually produced from near the soil line of the plant. Shrubs are generally less than 12 feet in height but some can reach 20 feet or more.

Trees and shrubs are available in sizes varying from seedlings to large trees.  The size of a tree or shrub at planting time often affects its ability to establish. For practical and economic reasons, consider buying medium sizes of trees and shrubs since they usually recover more readily from transplanting shock and establish faster than larger plants. A general rule of thumb is that for each inch in diameter of trunk size, a year is required to adjust for transplant shock or root loss.
