It's a paradise for me... Im a fond of a greenery and scenery garden.
Thank you. Glad you agree that gardens are so much more than flowers!
Reminds me of a fantasy land so to speak. A storybook waiting to be written. Its magical!! 🌲 💚🌳🏡
Thanks Gina. You are kind to say that!
Trees are such wonderful friends in the garden. Yours are all so beautiful, as is your yard. I love the stone you have bordered your beds with and built the walls. They make your entire garden look so cared for and neat. Will you speak about them in a video, please?
Thank you so much. That's a great suggestion; I am thinking of doing a video about hardscape in the garden, and how it can unify the space. I just love natural stone.
Roseanne I have to say your yard and gardens are GORGEOUS!!!! You give me so much inspiration about what to plant and I’m your Wisconsin neighbor so I figure that whatever will grow for you, will definitely grow for me as well and I just cannot get enough of the beauty you and your very handy husband have created!!! Outstanding job!! I hope to see more posts this year! 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and wisdom.
Greetings to our neighbor to the East! Wow Chris, thanks so much! You are too kind. We do love our trees - the key to my vision of a perfect garden. I don't do many posts and plan on showing other gardens this summer too. Stay tuned...
@@RosannesGarden I’m all eyes and ears. I’m sure whatever you decide to show, whether it’s your own garden or those of others, if you show them it means they caught your eye and your heart so to me it means there will be future wow gardens!!! Your love for nature truly shows. Thank you 🌷🌷🌷🌷
@@chrismarchetti-olson6632 Thank you
Chris! I appreciate that vote of confidence!
Such beautiful trees you have. Theres nothing more special than a tree. You have such a lovely garden.
Thank you. Trees are pretty special. ❤️
Hello Rosanne, first of all, thank you very much for setting up the automatic translation, my language is Spanish. I congratulate you on your beautiful garden and for the very precise explanation that you share with us in your videos, I have just moved to a house with a very large lot, but it does not really have a garden shape and what little it has is very neglected. You are a great inspiration to me. I wanted you to know. I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Thanks for your time. 🥰🤗🙌🌵🐛🏡💚💚💚
Greetings to Tulsa! Thank you for such wonderful feedback! I am so pleased you appreciate my style and content. To Inspire others in their gardening endeavors is my goal. Thank you so much for commenting and sharing! 🌱🌺🌼
Thank you so much, this has helped me put my garden design idea down on paper. You've used the perfect trees throughout your space. I was slightly afraid of bring in to many trees but you've displayed your so well that now I know that it is defiantly doable.
Wonderful! Trees are the greatest and I'm glad that you are considering trees in your landscape. They are actually subtle, but have an enormous impact on the feeling of being "enclosed or enveloped" in the garden . Truly great, even for a city garden.
I love the layers of trees in your garden.
When I moved here, nearly 30 years ago, I was swayed by the many trees in my yard (I am in Crystal). Over the years I've had to remove 11 of them. I have a 'Prairie Fire' crabapple I didn't notice in time got blight so will be removing it. My last mature tree in the back, some kind of maple, is roaring with orange that reflects into my kitchen setting it ablaze this morning. Oddly, this is the first time it colored so orange. It's always been quite golden. It's near the power lines and has two leaders so, sadly, isn't long for this world. After a "tornado" went thru here this summer several huge trees had to go and it got me speculating on the life of mine.
Since you like weeping trees, I have to point you to my favorite one I planted this spring in a mixed hydrangea hedge I hope screens the neighbors in time. 'The Blues' weeping Colorado spruce. Oh my. It should remain fairly small. It layers so nicely with the hydrangeas, grasses, 'Black Lace' elderberry, coralberry and blue/purple perennials planted around it.
Greetings neighbor! I lived in Crystal once. 😊
The constant evolution of a garden is to be expected, but losing trees hurts extra hard, because of the long time it takes to replace. On the other hand, it also provides new opportunities.
Thanks for the tip on "The Blues" weeping Colorado spruce. Your vignette sounds lovely, especially with the blue of the spruce and the deep burgundy of the elderberry. All the best in gardening!
It's wonderful that you nurture the wildlife living in your garden. I am keeping your videos so that when I have a garden, I will use your ideas.
That's wonderful to hear! All the best with your future garden.
Really enjoyed visiting with your trees! I love the info about dwarf and smaller trees, as I have a very small yard in Texas and some of the smaller trees would go well in my yard.
Thank you so much. ❤️😊. Glad to be of some inspiration!
I am a big fan of Catalpa! I have to admit, I have not known about them for very long… We purchased our home coming up on three years in early May. When we first looked at it, I couldn’t tell what most of the trees were without their leaves. But I noticed a tree that had some large pods hanging from it. When June rolled around, I was blown away by the huge blooms, and that is when I figured out that it was a Catalpa! I had never seen one before, but now I notice them when I see them growing in other places. It’s my favorite tree in my yard! I love your variety of trees. Your garden is very beautiful all around! This video makes me want to look into some smaller trees I can add to my yard. Last summer I donated to the Arbor Day Foundation and got some tiny trees in the beginning of December. I had to give some to a friend because they would not all fit in our yard once they matured. I did plant two Redbud trees and a White Magnolia in my front yard and two Pee Gee Hydrangeas and a small flowering crab on the sides. Unfortunately, I think the rabbits may have eaten the flower and crab. The Hydrangeas I caught and covered them with paper towel rolls when I noticed that something had been eating on them. We have an odd shaped yard, it’s pie shaped which makes the front yard very wide, but the back yard is tiny and comes to a point at a power pole. I’m very interested in that tiny blue Blue Spruce, I didn’t know there were dwarf forms of those, and have always loved that color! Right now I only have one evergreen tree which is an Arborvitae next to the side door of the house. I’ve been thinking I really need to find some small varieties to add some evergreen interest. And also to add some hiding places for the birds in the back yard. I noticed the birds love the Arborvitae, and would love to give them some safe spaces in back closer to my bird feeders. 😊
Wow, sounds lovely with all those trees. Ahh, those rabbits. We do wrap or otherwise protect the trunks of younger trees. This winter we had severe 🐇damage on an older one that we didn't protect. I've always wanted a Redbud, but never quite had an opportunity with the right space. There are so many good things about trees, but I think that my favorite would be the birds and birdsong they attract. All the best with your garden! 🌲❤️🌳
@@RosannesGarden I do love the birds! They are partly why I wish to add some evergreens, even if is small ones to fit among my other large established trees. I want them to have places to hide for safely. 😊
This is so helpful, Roseanne! To see a great variety of trees that do not overtake small yards has given me a lot to consider. When you share the age of your trees, it confirms their size and helps me to visualize using them. It’s also helpful when pictures from different seasons are put in-very thoughtful :) You have such a good eye in placing your plants for scale, texture, and interest. I thoroughly enjoy your videos, thank you!!
Thank you Georgette! I am so glad you found the video enjoyable and informative. Trees are the backbone of my garden. They help to create such a great layering effect. Feedback such as yours is important to me so that I know what to keep doing and what to stop doing! Thanks for watching and commenting. All the best!
I really enjoy your wonderful VIDEOs 💚 your style of your home & the little ? Potting shead is like a fairy tale or little cottages you land scape is wonderful looks natural looking.
I'm so pleased to hear that you are enjoying the videos of our garden! 🤗
Thanks for commenting!
This was very helpful for varieties that can withstand cold weather. Mrs CB NE Ohio
Dear Mrs. CB, I'm so glad you found the video useful! It's truly amazing how many plant varieties thrive in the cold north. 🌳
What a lovely tour of your back-yard garden, with some great cold climate trees. I really love your garden shed, it must be the nicest garden shed I have ever seen!
Thank you. I do love my trees. I love the shed too! I plan on doing a video of it and its surrounding garden this summer.
Great info on some beautiful trees for the garden. I don't know much about trees, so this vid is very helpful! Thanks!
Good! Glad to hear it. Trees can be so underappreciated in urban garden design, so I felt the need to promote them! 🌳❤️☺️
Really lovely tour and such inspired and thoughtful choices of trees! Now. Who wants to hear/see all about that darling tool shed? Swords Up! 😁
That is very sweet! I definitely want to do a video on the shed 👍 - probably next summer. 😊
Lovely. And so helpful. Thank you, Rosanne.
You are so welcome!
Quite lovely. Enjoyed wandering around the backyard.
That was my intention! Glad you enjoyed the walk.
The trees in your space are absolutely incredible! After Hurricane Michael made landfall in our city...we lost all of our trees. It has changed the landscape drastically. I miss our trees.
Thank you! I am so sorry to hear about your trees! How tragic all the way around. Hopefully, you can plant some new ones.
Juts discovered you videos. They are SO useful and inspiring. Thank-you.
I am so pleased that you found my channel and are finding the videos helpful...and inspiring. That is exactly my goal. Gardening seems to make people happy and I hope to encourage it 🌷🌿🌼
Hello! Your garden is beautiful! I also really enjoy listening to your informative comments as you guide us around. Thank you!
Thank you! I appreciate comments such as yours because they help me understand what people are interested in seeing.
Can not have to many trees, beautiful yard !
Thank you very much!
Love your shed.
Yes, it is sweet. It is also highly functional. Sometime, I might do a video of it.
Love your well done videos Roseanne! Thank You!
Thank you very much for saying that. I'm having great fun doing the videos.
Lovely Rosanne. Thank you! I found a garden center that sells the Malus Lanzum Lancelot crabapple tree -- like the one in your side yard.
Wonderful! 🌳 Good luck!
I love your garden!!! Thank you for all the information.
Thank you! I'm so glad you like the channel! Trees are such a key part of our garden. 🌳❤️
Speechless!!
It takes My Breath Away!!
Beautifulllll!!❤❤
Wow! I'm so glad you enjoyed this video. I LOVE trees in as garden; they complete it. 😊🌺
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing it with us.
Thank you!
Your garden is amazing, thank you for sharing it with us.
Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed the garden and the video.
So many beautiful trees!!
I'm glad you think so! 🌳❤️🌳. Thanks for watching!
Thanks rosanne I wrote down some trees I would like in my new garden x
Wonderful! Glad to hear that you found the video useful!
Beautiful 💚🌳
Thank you!
Beautifull garden. Love your garden. Thanks for sharing and have a nice day.
Thank you very much!
I just love your garden!
Thank you very much! I'm glad to have shared it.
Such a beautiful garden Rosanne!!! I love all the different colors, shapes and textures. I've just recently started adding spruce, blue spruce and different colored leaf trees to our yard.
Like your yard we had to remove 2 mature trees within the last 5 years, now we are trying to rebuild our yard with trees and shrubs.
Great tour!
Thank you Diane! As you know, I am very fond of trees and shrubs; for us, they are an integral part of garden design. Sorry to hear about your mature trees :-(🌳. Glad to hear you are working with color and texture in your selections. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I love your channel. Thank you for the tender, loving tours of your garden world. I will be spending more time relaxing with your garden videos.
Thank you Deb, that is very nice of you to say! I am pleased you find the channel videos enjoyable and relaxing. That is my goal! 🌹🌺
What beautiful trees and garden you have! I can just imagine the bird songs you must enjoy so much.
Yes! The bird songs are wonderful! Trees are so great.
I just love ur garden 🌺🌹👍
Thank you!😊
Lovely trees. Thanks.
Thank you very much. They are so special.
I’ve watched this video multiple times, love it
That is indeed a true compliment! I am so glad you enjoyed it.
Wow you have a beautiful garden. Loved all your trees.
Glad you enjoyed seeing and hearing about them.
Gorgeous landscaping! Loved all of it! Beautiful interlacing of the colors and textures. I try to do the same, but it sometimes seems like a hodgepodge. You have a great eye. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. As with perennials, I do try repetition with trees as well. It helps with the hodgepodge look. For example, I have four Red Barron Crabapples, five Acracona spruce trees, and over a dozen arborvitae. It definitely calms things down. Thanks for watching!
beautiful !!!
Thank you!!
Hi Rosanne! I've been watching your videos and have been making a ton of notes in planning for our yard. You do a wonderful job and its so fun to see you and your yard again through the videos :) Hope you are doing well!
Thank you! I'm so glad you are finding the videos useful! We are so fortunate to have our garden to occupy us these days. Of course, we just got a snow storm yesterday with very low temps forecast all week. The tulips, which were going to be the "star" of my next video, are in jeopardy for sure :-(
Stay safe.
You have a beautiful yard/garden. Just what I am trying to achieve in zone 8a Vancouver BC. Great video as well.
Thank you! Greetings to Vancouver! I do envy your long growing season. It seems so lush. Glad you enjoyed the video.
@@RosannesGarden it can be long with a warm spell in March or April with many blooms but can also get a late frost. All the nurseries have full inventory but suggest not to plant just yet.
What a wonderfull garden!
Thank you. I am glad you liked it!
Really beautiful 😍
Thank you! 😊
Wow!!! I'm proud of Korean maple in your garden. I expect your interest in Korean flower and trees more. Thank you
So nice of you. 🌳☺️. Thank you.
Love your garden Rosanne :) thank you for showing us round :) I love trees & shrubs :) I just subscribed to your channel :)
Thank you very much. I absolutely love sharing my garden. ❤️😊
I do love trees, my only issue right now is finding sunny areas so I can grow a vegetable garden, this year I had pots in spots around the yard, Thanks for sharing your space 👍❤️😊
You are quite welcome. All the best with your quest for sun 😊 for vegetables. Nothing beats fresh veg.
Your husbands stonework is amazing. I love the turtle he made its amazing. Great work if I wax closer I would hire him. Live in MO.
Thanks so much. He does do great work. 😁 His love of stone and my love for plants has made for a gardening "win-win". Here's a link to a blog I did on the turtle you might find interesting:

I love this video. It has been so helpful!
I am so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.
Great tour
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
8/30/22: just popped in to say you’ve inspired so many purchases (or rather, plans to purchase) for my landscaping projects. Today, after months of checking Gerten’s for a Sester’s Dwarf, I finally found one at Sailers! Lol. 20% off too. I just love it! Thanks for your videos
Greetings neighbor! Thanks for dropping this note - I love hearing about garden activities and purchases that I may have inspired 🍁🌿🍂. Glad you found your Sester's Dwarf! Hmm, I've not heard of Sailers. Now, I'll have to check it out!
@@RosannesGarden Hello - It’s in Prior Lake 9 miles south of Valleyfair - it’s a beautiful drive and there are Golden Retrievers running around. We played ball with Sully. 🥹
Lovely... 😊
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the tour! I really appreciate the variety of trees in your garden and also that you mentioned the age of the tree. I’m looking to buy/invest in some new trees and looking online can only easily find pictures of the younger trees at the nursery/RUclips gardeners. Seeing your Fat Albert Blue Spruce sets a realistic expectation of size so I can now buy it with confidence. You’ve also inspired me to add some new trees that I hadn’t considered.
Thank you! I'm so glad you found the video useful. I love trees and enjoy hearing about people planting more. And, what can I say about Fat Albert? The blue is stunning. Thanks for watching and commenting 🌳❤️🌳
Really informative video!
Thank you! Glad you think so!
What a beautiful garden! I have planted some Serviceberry trees myself, but they have yet to catch up to yours..I look forward to viewing all of your videos for ideas )
Hi Paul,
Serviceberry trees are fantastic, aren't they? Especially if you like birds! Thanks for watching and commenting!
What a lovely space! I love the beautifully done plantings, and your little building made me smile. Is it a potting shed, or studio...the blue door makes your spruces pop! Best wishes!
Thank you! The cute little building is a garden shed, which is used for all of our garden tools, pots, plant supports, etc. I am thinking of doing a video on it. We have it organized really well, plus it's so inviting. I'm glad you noticed about the blue door and the Fat Albert. 😊 I love it too.
@@RosannesGarden I think a video on the potting shed would be a great idea! Well worth watching. Best wishes!
Hello. Thank you for this video. Your garden is wonderful. I hope you do a spring tour very soon. I'd love to see more. :)
Ahh, I am working on a spring tour now. Look for it in a week or two!
Love your esthetic
Thank you. I appreciate that.
Simply breathtaking! Like 👍 425.
Thank you! That is very kind.
@@RosannesGarden 💙💚💛
Such a beautiful garden, thank you for sharing. My late Mum & Dad grew a beautiful garden when i was growing up in Borneo. So gardens means a lot to me. I just subscribed to your channel, its very comforting to see a garden.
I'm so happy you enjoyed the video! Gardening is such a gift in these times.
@@RosannesGarden You are so very blessed, so i can only take in all the beauty of your garden via your channel. Plus if you have a garden there will be lots of butterflies & bees & birds.
Dreamy!

Thank you! ❤️😊
New Subscriber, loved the tree tour
Thanks Amy! I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed the tour.
I also have lots of trees in my middle -size garden. I do worry about their size in future although I love to have trees alot. Your video helps me relax abit after knowing how old your trees are. I guess I may need to prune them though.
Oh good! Trees are indeed special, but do grow 😐. Pruning is important to help keep them in shape, such as with Louisa, the weeping crab apple tree pictured in the thumbnail. If your soil is healthy, I'd stay away from too much fertilizer though, as it will make them grow.
@@RosannesGarden Thank you very much for reminding to stay away from fertilizer. Yes, my soil is quite healthy. Cosmo in my garden grow above 6 ft. without fertilizer.
Hello and best wishes to our "sisters and brothers in cold" in zone 4 from Moscow, Russia 😊
Greetings to Moscow! I am always pleased to hear from other cold-weather gardeners.
😃 We got 6 inches of snow last night. It's just beautiful.
Your yard is so beautiful and I really love the blue trees!! What vine do you have growing on your shed. Thanks for sharing your beautiful yard!!
Thank you! I'm glad you feel the way I do about the blue trees. There is just no substitute for their impact. As to the vine, it is a "Love in a Puff'. Here's a link to a video I did on it:

@@RosannesGarden thank you for sharing the "love in a puff" video. what a beautiful vine
Trees are my favorite plant! Thank you for sharing your lovely garden, you've done an awesome job!
Thank you!
I love catalpa trees
Yes, I can see why. They are so unusual and funky.
Enjoyed the tour! We lost two very large trees on our property last summer so we have some big areas to fill. I also am in zone 4 so I find your information very helpful. It can be overwhelming trying to figure out what to get when your at the nursery and also very expensive! It was so nice to see how they looked as more mature trees and at different seasons of the year. Your property is beautiful. I thought I noticed some drip line in one of your videos, do use drip lines in your garden beds? Thanks for sharing with us!
Thank you! I am glad you found it useful. Losing large trees is certainly very unfortunate, and changes the landscape for many years. I am sorry for your loss. But, lemons into lemonade! All the best finding some nice replacements.
As to the drip line, I do have soaker hoses in many of our beds. It is part of a larger irrigation system.
Hi Roseanne, I love your channel! I am so fascinated-- thank you! I was wondering how you prune or stake your dwarf hemlock. I love the look of yours but in all the photos I've seen of the same variety, it appears mounded and not very tree-like, as yours is. Thank you again for the inspiration. :)
Thank you! I’m so glad you are enjoying my channel!🌲 as to the weeping hemlock, I may have been fortunate in my original plant selection, because I have not needed to stake it, and I have rarely pruned it. To get more of the tree shape rather than all mounded, you could prune off some of the lower branches. I have done that with hydrangea also, to give it more of a tree form. My best suggestion would be to go to a nursery you trust and look at the specimens to get one that suits you. Sorry I couldn’t be of more help on this! Good luck!
Beautiful yard that you have. Love all the textures and variety’s. I live in northern Minnesota and get to the cities a lot. Can I ask where you purchased some of your trees? Thanks again in advance.
Thank you. I'm glad you appreciate the trees! We've purchased most of the trees at Bachmans. For unusual and weeping trees, Tangletown Gardens and Highland Park Nursery also has a very nice selection.
You have such a beautiful yard. I live in South Carolina and the heat and humidity are so uncomfortable. I need some more trees in my front yard which faces west.
I wonder if a crabapple would grow in such heat. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! Here's a link to a BH&G article on crabapple tree varieties that includes their growing zones.
www.bhg.com/gardening/trees-shrubs-vines/trees/best-crabapples-for-your-yard/
It looks like the warmest part of South Carolina is USDA Zone 8, so many would seem to work. Below is a link to the Zone map.
www.gardeningknowhow.com/planting-zones/south-carolina-planting-zones.htm
I hope you find the right tree!
I love the weeping pines framing your bench. I’d love to see a video about those and how you trained it. Looks like they’re planted fairly close to your property line, how wide do they get? I have a small yard and always worry about planting too closely to the property beside us.
Hi Heather, The weeping white pines around the bench really didn't need much training. We braced them with rebar for a few years. They are planted 20 inches from the property line. I'd say they do impose on our neighbors by about a foot. We do prune them back on our neighbor's side. As a note, however, we lost one of them late last summer. Broke my heart and really don't know what happened. Our arborist didn't have the time to come and take a look before the tree was almost dead 😖. We now have a new tree care company ❤️🌳.
That stone bench!
#youhaveahandyhubby
Yes I do! 😊
I love your channel, can you please make videos for individual plants which plants which food need what type soil compost need ,sun or less sun
Great suggestion. Thanks for watching and commenting. I appreciate your feedback. 😊
I like Korean maple tree.!!!
So do we! Thank you!
Rosanne would you be kind to post your specimen trees! You do have a wonderful collection!
Thank you. I'm quite fond of the trees too!. I have embedded the botanical names of the trees within the video. Is that what you are asking for? I'd like to help.
Rosannes Garden thank you Rosanne. I did eventually realize that the names were there... I was so charmed by the beauty of different shapes, textures and color that I missed the names the first time. Thank you for sharing your beautiful garden with the breathtaking stone bench!
@@bernadette1510 😊❤️🌿. I plan to do a video of the stone hardscape in the garden this summer. Good hardscape makes the garden seem very cohesive, even though the plantings may be very diverse. Watch for the (yet to be filmed) video!
Wow, over 40 trees, that's very impressive. Do you take cuttings to use indoors during the winter months for decorating? Your landscape is absolutely beautiful. I like the catalpa trees also. When I was a child, one of our neighbors had one in front of their house and I loved the large leaves and showy flowers.
Thank you! I knew a Catalpa tree as a child also, and just loved it. 😊 Funny how the seeds get planted in ones mind. As to your question, I have on occasion used pine branches for outdoor containers in the winter. I only do that, when pruning is called for though.
Hello I have a beautiful weeping mulberry full of fruit at the moment. Delicious & sweet!
That sounds wonderful. Attractive and fruitful.
At 4:15 you show what look like little white irises. Please tell us more about them, and what are the strange little taupe colored caplike things? Are they the pods that the flowers came out of? I loved the video and have subscribed. I will share it with friends. Thank you.
The flowers that look like irises are the flowers of the Catalpa tree. Aren't they beautiful? I showed a close-up after the picture of the entire flowering tree. I believe you are correct that the taupe cap-like things are the pods that the flower emerges from. Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for subscribing!
Here is a tip for your next purchase when your looking for dwarf trees.......look at the sales tag and read what looks like scientific jargon that identifies the tree....if it ends in nana.....it identifies the tree as dwarf...
Great tip! Thanks. I love how the latin names can be so descriptive.
Hello again
Where do you get the seeds for Golden Glow Rudbeckia that you have planted in your yard ive looked at some of the seed catalogs and I haven't been able to find any
Hi,
I am not aware of those seeds being available, as this is not the first time I've been asked that. My Rudbeckia originally came from a division that I got from a relative. I have seen plants for sale on the internet, however. Good luck!
I love the Sester Dwarf blue spruce tree but am unable to find locally. I live in central Indiana in zone 5. Do you have a recommendation of a mail order nursery or one that would ship from near you? Thanks!
I'm glad you like it. It really is a nice tree. I do not have a recommendation for a mail-order nursery, but there do seem to be a few out there after a quick search. However, I did not dig deep (no pun intended 😉). Maybe a local nursery of yours could special order one for you? Good luck! 🌲
@@RosannesGarden I'll ask my local nursery to see if they could special order. I may also look in northern Indiana near my daughter's too. Thanks for the prompt reply!
@@brendaalabaugh4799 Good luck!
I am on the search for smaller/dwarf trees. Everytime I go to a nursery everything is 30 feet wide and 60 feet tall! Wish I could find these smaller trees
When we planted many of our smaller and weeping trees, we only found two garden centers in the Twin Cities that carried them. It did take some calling around. Now, I am seeing many more of them as they seem to be gaining in popularity. Hopefully you will too. I'd be sure to speak to someone at the garden center that knows trees and hear what they recommend. All the best. ❤️😊
I have silver maple trees that are growing in my mulch on the side of my house right against the outside wall of the house they grew from the acorns that fell from the other trees in the yard the trees are not quite 1 year old. What would be the best time of the year to dig them up and plant them somewhere else in the yard away from the outside wall of the house . Im located in North Georgia
Michael Anger wow, if you have a silver maple growing near your foundation, I’d be digging that up right now. We have one in our yard, because my husband wanted instant shade, it’s now a good 100ft. There root system grows close to ground surface and can damage your foundation.
We live a Ontario, and the tree is okay, but I wish we had planted something different. Silver Maples has keys, lots of keys not acorns
Carmen Bailey yes they do have keys I don't know what got me to write acorns but right now they are about 6 feet tall and the leaves didnt fall off of them yet . Should i wait until the leaves fall off of the trees before i dig them up and plant them away from the house?
Michael Anger I’m not a expert just another home owner, but If it was in my yard I would cut in down and dig the roots out in the spring.
But please ask a professional their opinion, I live in Ontario and Sliver Maples are a soft wood that grows fast and provides shade, that’s what my husband wanted. Today our choice of a tree would definitely be different. The best of luck in your decision.
Hi Michael, I agree with the comments - the sooner the better to remove the maple volunteer.
Can crab apples grow in morning sun?
Hi there, Generally, crab apple trees need full sun (at least six hours of direct sunlight) to do well. I don't think that only morning sun would be enough for most varieties that I know.
