Blown away and overwhelmed...
Comments (8)In my opinion all superior cultivars. Dave Abie concolor 'Compacta' Slow growing. Excellent for rock gardens. Irregular growing habit. Abies concolor 'La Veta' Cool...Jerry Morris Rocky Mountain Collection. Always desirable. Abies concolor 'Z-mark' No info. Across the pond. Abies koreana 'Blue Magic' If no terminal dominance is developed the plant will be a flat spreading. Abies koreana 'Golden Beskid ' Tough to find in States???. Abies koreana 'Rodzyngold...same Picea abies 'Fritsche' Bright green foliage...full sun to some shade tolerance. Picea abies 'Perry's Gold' Mine doesn't burn in full sun. Picea engelmannii 'Blue Magoo' A striking upright Picea engelmannii 'Compacta' Forms an attractive blue pillar in the landscape. Picea glauca 'Daisy White' Striking white foliage in spring. Picea Glauca 'Fort Ann' For people who want something different although after they see it they usually want something a little less different. Picea mariana 'Aureovarigata' Specimen plant. Picea orientalis 'Daureas' Flushes yellow in spring. Plant is a conical upright. Picea orientalis 'Iseli Seedling' Needs to be screened for two years to acclimate. Picea orientalis 'Spring Frost' Needs a little shade. Hard to find. Picea pungens 'Blaukissen' Slow grower...1 inch...desirable. Picea pungens ''Filip's Blue Compact' Try and find it... Picea pungens 'Gebelle's Golden Spring' One to have...go for it. Picea pungens 'Lundeby's Dwarf' Iseli...very nice. Only full sunlight. A desirable pungens. Picea pungens 'Maigold' In spring bright white on old blue foliage. Upright conical plant to 20 ft and beyond. Picea pungens Spring Ghost In spring new growth emerges a wonderful cream white which covers the entire tree. By June the white needles evolve to blue-green again. Picea pungens 'Waldbrunn' Color and form are both unique when compared with other compact versions of the Colorado spruce. Picea pungens 'Walter Glen' Where to find??? Picea pungens 'Wendy' excellent alternative to Picea glauca Conica Picea pungens 'Wisconsin Cream' An unusual upright evergreen conifer with cream-white needles. Tolerates full sun surprisingly well. Pinus cembra 'Silver Whisper' White striped dark green needles that produce a silvery effect. Pinus contorta 'Chief Joseph' Make sure it is not grafted on sylvestris under stock. Pinus contorta 'Taylor's Sunburst' Rare in the trade due to propagating difficulties. Pinus Densiflora 'Gold Ghost' Bright yellow with green margins in the spring. Sustaining its beauty, it holds this brilliant color throughout the fall months. Pinus koraiensis 'Silveray' Silver-blue needles - more blue than the type. Makes a wonderful landscape specimen. Pinus koraiensis 'Winton' A broad pyramid bushy dwarf. Nice color. Pinus mugo 'Fastigiata Aurea' Vigorous upright growth and yellow winter foliage. Pinus parviflora (Glauca) Narrow upright when young, widening with age. Silver-green curved foliage. Love mine. Pinus parviflora 'Glauca Brevifolia' Has short, up-curved, bluish-green needles and many persistent cones at a young age making this a very showy pine. Pinus parviflora 'Goldilocks' A bright yellow foliage Japanese White Pine. Small dwarf with bright yellow leaves. Plant will grow about 6 inches a year. The color is mango yellow not a light yellow. Pinus parviflora 'Templehof' Compared appearance wise to Pinus parviflora 'Glauca' but has a reputation of being a stronger grower. Pinus strobus 'Blue Shag' This light bluish green, small to medium shrub has a formal rounded to slightly broad-rounded habit. Pinus strobus 'Sea Urchin' Stands out as one of the finest of the very small selections of Pinus strobus. Its short, soft needles display more blue than other types. Pinus x 'Forest Sky' A dense, upright evergreen conifer. Often adorned with long ornamental cones. Pinus x schwerinii 'Wiethorst' Famous for ornamental cones at a young age. Tsuga canadensis 'Moon Frost' White new growth that slowly fades to a darker green with white tones, great contrasting colors are what makes this conifer. Tsuga canadensis 'Summer Snow. New white growth on old green foliage. This shrub will require occasional maintenance and upkeep, and is best pruned in late winter once the threat of extreme cold has passed....See MoreAnyone get blown away?
Comments (7)I said no damage here, but 1/2 mi down the road from us, two big trees were uprooted and fell on the neighbor's car. DH had woke up and asked me if that was wind or a plane going over. Just blew stuff around in the yard. Looking cloudy this morning like we might get a drop or two. Very likely, since DH cut hay yesterday. Since the prediction was for rain Fri. instead of Thurs, he tho't that would give him time to rake and get it baled before any rain. Oh well, best laid plans........

Comments (9)Hi cncguy I have not yet built here in CT but the PB we will use also works closely w/ an electrician; says he's reliable and since he has experience w/ my PB, the jobs fit well together like a puzzle. Anyway, my PB quoted $1850 for electric. Our pool will be vinyl, rectangle, 18x40 and is set back and off to the side from the house due to septic. If you want specific info on our builder, feel free to email me at soccerfans6@yahoo.com. Best of luck with your build!

Comments (7)When working with an NWFA Certified Wood Flooring Refinisher, I always quote the higher rate: $5/sf. As HandyMac suggests, LOCAL markets will vary. I've seen some quoted as low as $3.50/sf (yep...NWFA professional in a VERY low priced market....like states along the southern boarder). I've seen it as high as $6/sf (NY, Manhattan, etc). A bid that is $2/sf is not an NWFA professional. It is most likely "Chuck in a Truck" with a taillight warranty....See Moreci_lantro
