In October of 2012, we placed our second large order of trees and shrubs:
10 Green Mountain Boxwood – mostly for the front of the house
10 Sargent Crabapple (Malus coronaria ) – a N. American native
10 Moonglow Juniper (Juniperus scopulorum) – a N. American native
10 Wichita Blue Juniper (Juniperus scopulorum) – a N. American native
10 American Witchhazel (Hamamelis virginiana) – native, great for all
10 Northern Bayberry (Myrica pensylvanica) – another great native
10 Arrowwood Viburnum (Viburnum dentatum) – great native
10 American Scarlet Elder (Sambucus pubens) – native
5 Mugo Pines (Pinus mugo pumilio) – could survive on the slope
It was a challenge getting all these plants into the ground, during a busy fall season at work. Plus, during Thanksgiving week, we went away, so there was no time to catch up. I was planting things in the dark the week before we left!
