Separate names with a comma.
Added another photo of the second one. And a closeup of the leaves. It's got a very woody base. Serrated pinnate leaflets. Seems to be about 17...
I think at least some of these are native to the Whistler area, but not sure what they are. Anyone know?? Interested in planting more native...
I don't think my landlord knows he's supposed to replace those removed trees with more trees. I did not know either. I doubt he would want to.
On the flip side, its sometimes refreshing when, amidst the rows of boring lawns, one comes across the rare front lawn that has been retained as a...
Yeah my landlord who bought this house recently and has a 'humans must dominate and tidy the land' British imperialist aesthetic, cut down two...
Oh I so agree with you. Who would hack a tree for a powerline? We humans have so much to learn.
Thank you Ron. I've missed reading your knowledgeable responses. I should come by here more often.
Hi all! Long time no post. I was recently introduced to this Japanese maple that seems 90% dead. There are leaves on just a couple branches. The...

I'm helping my friend redesign the yard for a house he just bought. His house is on the right hand side of this pic. In between his and the...
Thank you, woodschmoe. That sounds easy!
Perfect! Thanks, Ron. Another question: I have heard that the only species that is truly clumping is "Fargesia" and that all other types do...
Hi All. When I went to the Powell Street Festival at Woodland Park in Vancouver this year, I happened to walk past a gorgeous house and yard. I...
Ok, thank you. I imagine the owners must prune it regularly to ensure what you described does not happen! It looks like planting one of the...
So if I want to keep it looking like the first pic, then just prune it into a globe and shear off the branches 5' and above? And if I want to keep...
What causes some to have foliage that extends to the ground, but others to not have foliage until 20' up? I am assuming age?
