Nice walkway! I love the spring colors and can't wait to see them. We've had a very harsh winter, as you have, and I hope everything comes back...
This is one of my very favorites. Mine gets morning and very late afternoon sun. At about 15 years old it must be 8' x 8', and I have done some...
I basically agree with this, although there are people here with much more experience. I look at my 8 year olds with much more critical pruning...
I have a small lawn in the front with lots of other plantings, and no grass in the back. I love it and so do the birds. The maples make for...
Mine is still quite small, but probably 10 years old. It has Alpine strawberries growing around it, some flowering moss and thyme. Lovely corner,...

Just lovely JT1 and K4! It has been quite cool here too, since I posted that, and things slowed down. Soon we'll see the spring color! Can't...

When we moved in 12 years ago, the street was lined with Norway Maples probably planted in the late 20's. They are all gone now, every one. One...
I have to ask: do you know that the new owners will cut the trees? This is a very difficult and risky process on your schedule. You should count...
Colors, yes! This is interesting. Purely anecdotal, but I do hiking and birding in a local conservancy area, and there are Japanese maples...
Yes, heartbreaking. We got less snow, and I only lost a side branch from my Katsura. Trees were bent low, but I was lucky. This snow did not...
